Serving Proudly As The Voice Of Valley County Since 1913

Why Not Wrestling?

I would like to thank Coach Ryan for all of the kind words he shared in his article about my family last week. I would also like to thank all of the coaching staff of the Glasgow Wrestling Club for everything they do for each and every one of the team members and by extension – their families.

I would like to address one particular question now. What can wrestling do for you? This is a small list of things I see in the boys since they started wrestling:

Determination; Passion; Teamwork; Pride; Accountability; Honor; Humility; Self-confidence; Empathy; Persistence; Respect for authority; Focus; Compassion; Drive; Strategy; Commitment; Sacrifice; Desire; Dedication; Success.

Everything on this list has been taught to them by the wonderful coaching staff here. This group of men really do step up to the plate for all of our wrestlers. You really have a lot of influence over our children. Hats off to all of you.

So here is the real question: “Why not wrestling?”
