My name is Korbyn. I am the first St.Brendans middle school wrestler ever. We started a couple of weeks ago. The first ever wrestling meet was a home tournament. I had 3 matches which didn’t last long. I pinned all 3 of my kids in the first period. A period in wrestling is a minute thirty long and there are 3 of them until the end of a match. It was very fun to finally start wrestling again. We have a lot of people this year in the wrestling group. We had our next meet a week later on Thursday at Boonville. This tournament I had two matches, one that didn’t last the first period and pinned him and the other I pinned in the second period. It wasn’t very hard and I got it done which makes up for it. We didn’t have much longer until our next meet on Monday which means we had one price until we had the meet. During this time I started to go to the high school practices after the middle school one’s for more practice which helped. The Monday came I had two matches and they both went by very fast. I had pinned both of them. It was a pretty big tournament but wasn’t too big. It did take very long though. At this point I was7-0 which is pretty good. This was a very busy week for wrestling. We had practice the next day then had a tournament Wednesday and Thursday too. Tuesday was the same as always, just practice, then Wednesday came and we had another home meet with only two other schools, MMA and Moberly. This tournament I had to wrestle the same kid. I wrestled the very first tournament and I pinned him. I thought it wouldn’t be that hard. As soon as I was about to wrestle the kid I was supposed to go versus scratched which meant he couldn’t wrestle any more. I was pretty disappointed because I had waited all day to wrestle to just be told I couldn’t. Then Vitaly the wrestling manager came up to me telling I would be the very last match verse a different kid it didn’t last long I pinned him the third period Then the very next day we had are Thursday tournament it was at Fulton and I had 2 matches i had wrestled both these kids before. I pinned the first kid in the second period using my favorite movie. The second kid I went to verse got me kind of mad. I didn’t pin him but I did still win by points. That’s where we are now. I am 10-0 and doing good and that mms wrestling as of now. We had another tournament the next week where I won both of my matches again so now I am 12-0 and still have more to go.
