My nephew wrestled this weekend at the MAWA Nationals and he rocked the mat to a 2nd place finish. I'm pretty sure he has many first place finishes ahead of him, but as for this weekend I was amazed by his grit. He never gave up and bridged out of some sure pins. Despite being down points and likely exhausted, he never gave in to what would have been less painful, a pin.... For me, it was better than a win, it showed real guts and perseverance even in the face of defeat. I'd take having his moxy over 1st place anyday.
