Personal Statement

Recently I won my second state title as a Junior at 195 lbs.  After finishing 4th at 195 Sophomore Division, I set my sights on getting better and finished 33-1 this past season which ended by me pinning last years state champion at 182 lbs.  Last year coaches from around the state recognized my talent and nominated me as the only sophomore for Wrestler of the Year in Georgia.  My love for wrestling began as a young 5 year old boy looking to follow in my dad's foot steps and wrestle in college.   It then grew deeper when my family moved to the Czech Republic and I competed with the Czech National Team all around Europe culminating when I placed 3rd in Tallinn, Estonia Freestyle and Greco wrestling tournament.  Returning as a Freshman to the US, I find that many of my opponents do not understand how to defend against my upper body attacks I learned in Central and Eastern Europe.  I bring a wealth of world wide experience and perspective along with my great work ethic which shows through my accomplishments on and off the mat.
