As I walked into the wrestling room as a freshman I knew that I’d be the guy who could to eat due to my size. I weighed about 90 pounds going into that year. Sophomore year I was also underweight so I could to pig out. When my junior year rolled around, I made a sacrifice by going down to the lightest weight class, which was 106. Typically I weighed 118 coming in on Monday’s that year. To make the cut I knew I had to begin eating healthy. I started eating rice cakes, yogurt and also tried to get my protein in by eating little four-ounce sirloin here and there. My senior year I told myself that I was done cutting weight and would go the weight class that I was close to and that was 120 pounds.
After countless days of dedicating yourself to a sport where you put your body through tons of pain, wrestlers can’t wait to begin their binge eating and drinking unhealthy food.
After each season, every wrestler knows exactly what they want. For me, I was ready to eat a lot of ice cream and have some Mountain Dew Voltage. For my teammates, they were ready to begin eating and drinking unhealthy too after their seasons came to an end.
Izaak Hunsley was quick to answer with a nice Domino’s pizza and a peach tea.
Mason Brumbaugh responded with a Mountain Dew Code Red and some Taco Bell.
State Champion Damen Pape was excited to have a burrito bowl from Qdoba and a Blue Razz Bang caffeine drink. Bryce Brown had the same answer.
Evan Morara who placed third at the State Tournament dived right into some Chinese and chugged down chocolate milk.
