Tucker Taylor wrote, "Kids wrestled really well for the most part. First tournament of the year always shows where you technique and cardio are at. We've got plenty to work on and need to continue to get into better shape. All three girls were in the finals with Daija taking 1st. Wes Cox had a good tournament. Just made a fixable mistake that cost us in the finals. All in all a good first tournament."
