Wrestling has been a very important factor in my life ever since someone suggested it my freshman year of high school. Even though I have not wrestled a lot I would say I am very literate in the sport.

Through the recommendation by Tara Hills, Riverboat High School principal, the girls’ volleyball coach, Blanche Barnhart, was approved by the board with a 5-2 vote as the athletic director last May. The superintendent and the business manager, Fred Jones, from the central office were reluctant supporters and critical of the promotion. Over the summer, Coach Barnhart, made changes to the athletic budget causing equitable spending for boys’ and girls’ sports. She primarily made changes to the boys’ football budget and the boys’ basketball scheduling. Although this caused some discontent amongst the coaches involved in those sports, overall it addressed the animosity that was historically noted by the coaches of the other school sports and

The reason why I like wrestling as much as I do is because there aren’t really favorites in wrestling, like there are in other sports. In wrestling if a coach has a favorite and that wrestler is J.V. there is nothing that coaches can do to make that wrestler a Varsity wrestler. Unlike, say Baseball if a player's dad is a coach, that player will most likely be a starter or play quite often, even if he isn’t that good. In wrestling you have to work for what you want, if you don't think you won't be where you wanna be. This lesson will help me later in life by showing me to work for what I would like, because if I won't push for that then I might regret it for the rest of my life.

I work as a gymnastics coach at Trousdell Gymnastics Center. It is a recreational center that provides programs for all Tallahassee residents, specializing in gymnastics and exercise. The goal of this organization is to provide a safe and affordable program that keeps the community fit and engaged. They offer recreational gymnastics classes for boys and girls of all ages. There are also preschool and kindergarten programs for the younger children. On the other end of the spectrum there are adult classes that teach gymnastics and overall fitness. In addition, the gym offers classes for children with special needs. Finally, Trousdell offers a competitive gymnastics program for exceptional boys and girls. Three Olympic gymnasts have come through this program. Trousdell Gymnastics Center is named after a former Tallahassee Parks and Recreation Director Randy Trousdell, a man passionate about his community and the health of its children. Since it’s opening over 60 years ago the gym has impacted 500,000 children’s lives. I coach recreational classes for girls ages seven to fifteen years old. I begin every class by leading an extensive stretch and then we go to the events of the day where I set up stations for gymnasts to practice different skills. I end every class with conditioning to help the gymnasts grow stronger so that they can perform skills successfully. Trousdell Gymnastics Center coaches have a responsibility to these children. It is our goal to make the two hours a

Dan Gable is titled by many as the most legendary amateur American wrestler and coach in the history of amateur American wrestling. To put into retrospect of Dan’s popularity in the wresting world, Gable is the Michael Jordan of Basketball, the Pele of Soccer, and the Muhammad Ali of boxing, everyone has heard of Dan Gable. That is how legendary Dan Gable is. But what single attribute made Mr. Gable so special and unique? To pinpoint one certain accolade that made Gable a legend is almost too hard. Dan Gable had an almost normal life growing up as a boy; he began his fame by his wrestling accolades as an athlete at Iowa State University

Tidewater Titans baseball team was at its highest peak and we had been unstoppable. Coach Derrick, Coach Tony, Coach Perry, and Coach Darren had all led the team to multiple championships that year. Ever since the beginning, there had always been a problem with Coach Derrick. He had always thought his kid, Grayson was better than the rest. Grayson had taken my position at shortstop in my batting position and the line up. I was left to second base the second less likely place the ball could get hit too.

My name is Meghan Kuntz. I am the goalkeeper on the U16 Minnesota Thunder Academy ECNL team that Coach Constable saw at the Sanford Event. I just wanted to let you know that I am still a sophomore in high school, but I am definitely interested in Nova Southeastern University and was wondering if there is anything else you needed from me to help you fully evaluate

With the removal of wrestling from the Olympics, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) is also taking away many dreams for young wrestlers all over the world. Wrestling is a very mentally and physically challenging sport. “More enduringly than any other sport, wrestling teaches self-control and pride. Some have wrestled without great skill, none have wrestled without pride”(Dan Gable).To become successful at it, one must practice regularly and put in a large amount of work. In the United States alone there are over 260,000 wrestlers who have put in this work and dedication. Yet, this is only a small portion of the wrestlers in the world. With this being a small example of the world, it is hard to not think of the multitudes of young Olympic hopefuls whose dreams are being crushed with the removal of wrestling from the Olympics.

Rulon grew up in Star Valley, Wyoming on his parent’s dairy farm. At a young age he was diagnosed with learning disabilities that many adults thought would define the rest of his life. Little did they know, Rulon had a different plan for his life. Rulon applied the same work ethic that he did working on his family’s farm to studying for school. It took him a lot longer to learn the material, but he knew that to get where he wanted to be in life he had to go to college one day. His hard work paid off in both wrestling and schooling when he was able to make it into college. He first went to a community college and then, after

Fortunately, there were a number of pleasant surprises waiting for Coach Heflin during the early stages of the 1961 football schedule. In the early going, the stubborn Builders' defense proved its worth, unyielding and about as difficult to move as a battleship's anchor. With a front line stabilized by sophomore toolmaker apprentice, Gene Yearwood, and freshman shipfitter, Jimmy Wilson, along with co-captain, Ray Moody, a machinist from Waynesville, North Carolina, opponent ball carriers were kept from crossing the Builders' goal line until the third game of the year.

Frankie never thought that, of all people, he would be a wrestler. In the backwoods of Alabama, wrestling was the biggest sport. It was bigger than football. The wrestling coach was Jamie Robson. He was a multi-time state champion

Before Vivien Thomas got his hands on that lab coat, he was a regular worker that worked for a corporate boss that dealt with carpenting. After that day he was hired, Doctor Blalock gave Viven a white lab coat that will make him feel respected not only for himself but to other higher medical professions to prove that he is equal as them. But there were discrimination against his white lab coat not only to the white but also to his own people as well. One example is when Vivien, was setting up the lab for Doctor Blalock, Doctor Edgar came in and questioned him of who he is. And after Vivien answered him, he ordered him to buy him a donut and coffee. Vivien refused to do his task because even though with his lab coat on, the color of his skin
