At wrestling practice on Thursday, they had a special guest coach. His name is Anthony Robles, he is 20, and wrestling at ASU. He went to Mesa High, and was wrestling the same time as Kevin. He was born with only one leg. He took 2 High School State Championships, and 1 National High School Championship. He is currently ranked 10th in the nation in Freestyle, and is expected to make All American this year. He came and talked to the kids and showed them some of his favorite moves, and then jumped in and helped coach them through the moves. He was only able to actually work with a couple of pairs of kids, but Jon was one of them! It was pretty cool.

Yeah, I remember this kid when Kevin was wrestling. He was awesome. He was jsut in Junior High then. How awesome is that for you Jon, to be able to have him work with you.
Sweet Jon - we can't wait to hear about your meets.
