(Knight) just comes out with a good attitude and that's something we're trying to instill in the team. He's been looking good for us.
We had tough draws in the first round, and we knew it. We probably didn't wrestle quite as well as we could have. It's the state tournament, and there are a lot of tough wrestlers; everybody's good down here. You have to be ready to go.
There are some high-caliber teams here and placing anywhere in the top six is a great accomplishment. Matt Stephenson wrestled really well and was in every match. It's a good point in the season for Matt to realize that he can wrestle well at a tournament like this.
(Currie) came out aggressive and really looked for his offense. He's been hurt the last two weeks so it was good to see him with a lot of movement and a lot of offense tonight. He was getting after it.
Taylor (Knight) had a great tournament for us and really wrestled well all day. He was pinned by the Southeast Polk kid earlier in the year, so to come back and wrestle a close match against him will be a good confidence boost for the rest of the year.
Taylor wrestled a good match, but needed to be a little bit more aggressive on his shots.
It was a good test for our guys. It's the end of the season with districts only one week away. It gives them a good environment for a big tournament, so it should prep them for districts.
