      Hello all, on December 2, the Mercyhurst Wrestling Team had their very first home dual meet of the season. I happened to land a starting spot! I have to wrestle up a weight class, so the guys I'm wrestling with are a lot bigger than me! I am currently wrestling at 165lbs and I have to eat in order to weigh that much! This past dual meet I had to wrestle the number 3 guy in the country in my weight class. He was one tough son of a gun, but for the first two periods, I held my own only allowing the score to be 2-1. But as the third period rolled around he took me down more times than I wanted and ended up beating me pretty well. He was a tough cookie. Overall, the team beat Ashland University for the first time in 5 years. So it was a really good night!

     Hello all, I had to drive all the way to Cleveland, Ohio for Thanksgiving and I made it there safely. The reason I had to travel to Ohio was to see my mother for Thanksgiving. Ever since she got engaged to some douchebag, I've had to go over there for all the "family" events. Luckily, it was a very lovely event. We got to watch a lot of football which was tons of fun. I forgot how good of a cook my mom was and the food she made was so amazing. I felt so sick I ate so much!

    Hello all, over this past Thanksgiving Break, I went hunting. My best friend, Robbie, and I went rifle hunting on opening day. We saw a few does, but no bucks. We didn't want to shoot the does because we were trying to get the big buck! Unfortunately, we didn't see a buck, but overall it was really fun spending time outdoors with my best friend. There is just something different about being out in the woods. It reminds me of some type of relaxation therapy. It was just super nice being out in the woods. The smell, the sounds, and the atmosphere. Plus, once we were done we ate a ton of food because we were starving.
