UWEC Wrestling Match

      On Thursday, December 4th, I attended a UWEC wrestling match. It started at 7 so my friends and I got there at about 6:55. This was my first wrestling meet I have ever gone too so I really did not know what to expect. One of my close friends I met here at college is on the wrestling team. In high school, he won the state championship for his weight class. He also placed second in state his senior year. First the lighter weight class went. One of my other friends that was sitting with me in the stands was trying to explain the rules and point systems to me. When my friend started wrestling we all in the stands cheered for him as loud as we could. At one point he literally flipped is opponent over himself and slammed him to the floor. The crowd literally went wild. Although he made a great effort, his competition won by a small margin. Overall this was a good experience and I do not regret going.
