He’s naturally a really sweet kid, but when he steps out on that mat you can see a transformation come over him and it’s all controlled aggression and intensity. I’m a real proud father.

That's awesome man!

Daughter number one, who is a PHD senior scientist at a major pharma company, led the team that came up with the antibody for covid and has been promoted to director at said company. She has been published numerous times and is currently leading a team on a major new break through for one of the horrendous diseases.

Daughter number two has worked her way up to top management at a large conglomerate, overseeing all of purchasing and inventory of her company with people reporting to her around the globe.

Thank you friend, even a blind squirrel finds an acorn once in a while. They are fortunate to have an awesome mom.

Also found out today grandson #1 is going to make us great grand parents again. Getting old is not all bad.

Update: After yesterday’s tournament in OKC, my boy is now 20-1 after losing in the finals. We’ve been working on combining moves from the bottom position and he got a little too fancy. He switched to a sitting position and attempted a granby roll to escape. The kid he was wrestling was really strong and used the roll to catch him in a cradle. Got the 3 back points and ended up winning 8-5. Oh well, live and learn.

Have Billay coach him in how to escape from the bottom position.
