energy great high kid kids minutes seven six straight
Lance wrestled a kid who was high energy and high intensity, and he was able to get it back at the end. It was a great match. You usually don't see kids go at it, at that pace, for six or seven minutes straight like that in high school.

We're pretty fortunate to have three heavyweights like that. All three could start at many schools.
