    " Wrestling is a tough sport to recruit....former wrestlers understand the dedication and discipline it takes for six minutes...if your lucky! Three hour practices....weight discipline....school...off season freestyle....that you must drive 2 hours away to compete in...running...weight training....funding! Middle school program...summer camps...if you don't have the right support...don't expect to win! There are wrestling coaches in Douglas...I don't want to mention their names because I do not have their permission...the lack of passion for sport has severely crippled the program...I will continue to cheer for them because "We are Douglas BulldogsBulldogs!"
