Science Hill, Wilson Central, Brentwood, to name a few had awesome teams and have fans on here that talk trash in favor of their team.  But whenever Bradley, Cleveland fans do it, then it’s another story. I love wrestling and I’m excited for the future of Tennessee wrestling. It has came a long ways since I wrestled in the 1990s. I’ve never bashed or will I ever talk bad about another program. But untill somebody outside of region 4 wins it. I’m gonna talk trash just like everybody else does. Anyways have a good day twofdr gotta head back to work

You have a good one, too.

I’ve never complained about only being able to bring 2 teams lol? It’s a rule and been that way. I could careless because chances are the championship is gonna gontheough region4 anyway. So if Cleveland doesn’t make, I’ll cheer for Bradley and then Soddy. Us region 4 guys cheer for each other to keep it in our area. Kinda like how middle Tennessee is whenever they want to win over a Chattanooga area team. But it is what it is.

Back in the day (oh yeah....one of those guys....lol)......

District  - Region - State.  Top four from District >REGION.  Top four from region>STATES!

32, the number of perfection in state wrestling.

You hated your crosstown rival in your district, but the qualifying 4 became a band of bothers heading into their Region, hating the other districts.  The top four of your Region became a new band of bothers headed to McClelland.  Everybody from all the districts in your Region became your cheering section in Chattanooga.  Memphis versus the world.  Nashville versus the world.  Knoxville versus the world and Chattanooga versus the world. 

Lets be clear, HATE = HEALTHY RESPECT.   That boy from East Ridge.  This guy from Father Ryan.  

Yeah.  The good ol days!

Take this with you.   Many have seen it. 

If not, enjoy!  And have a GREAT Region!!

 

THE CHAMPION

He was a man of flesh and blood. He wasn't made of rock.
Angel, devil, child, - man of ordinary stock.
But somehow he was different - true athletes always are-
For as he cursed, sweated, and bled, he took pride in the scar.

They told him to win like a man, no matter what the cost;
So many times he ventured forth; so many times he lost.
And when they turned around and said, "It's OK son, you tried,"
He clenched his headgear in his fist, and like a man he cried.

But from his tears came anger; then, when it ceased to spin,
He rose again, determined that next time he would win.
His trembling body strengthened; his heart soared in sky.
His darkened soul stood flaming; there was fire in his eye.
He worked and worked relentlessly; he struggled and he strained.
His conscience whipped him mercilessly for every ounce he gained.

He ran on legs like pistons; his muscled arms grew sore;
He'd tell himself, "I have to" then ask himself, "What for?"

And then, at last, the reckoning: the final hour was here,
His stomach tightened dangerously, his muscles tensed with fear.
Weak-kneed, he shook the challenger's hand-
And then, as one possessed,
His instincts gave him power, and his body did the rest.

It suddenly was ended. His body seemed to scatter.
A crowd was cheering somewhere, but to him it did not matter.
One thought was gleaming in his brain, a thought that made him smile.
He's given it all he had, and that's what made it all worthwhile

He stood and faced his teammates, with pride instead of shame.
He knew not that he'd won or lost, but that he'd played the game.

And some call him THE WRESTLER, and some call him A MAN,
But he called himself a WINNER...

And the ref held up his hand.
