• There is a major connection between Football and Wrestling – examples include:

·         Ray Lewis from FL one of best LB in NFL history

·         Stephen Neal – never played FB in college but was a 2X National Champion, drafted by NE Patriots, SuperBowl Champ. 

·         Roddy White - 2X State Champ wrestler in SC for N. Myrtle Beach attributes much of his success in the NFL to his wrestling training.

·         Football players can stay active, lift weights and NOT have to lose weight in the offseason,

·         AND for you C-Team and D-Team players, you will be a stronger competitors, better contributor for Coach Strikland when you know how to wrestler-

·         The definition of “wrestle” is “to struggle” – through “struggle” comes refinement of skills, a physical and mental toughness that creates a certain “edge” all of which are components a great competitor. 

• While wrestling is a combat sport, the rules in place make it one of the safer sports offered in High School. 

·         Hand to hand combat is vitally important in Football, in Military and Law Enforcement training - is a bedrock of what you learn in my wrestling room.

• Wrestling helps keep the School as a whole safer by reducing bullying, increase self-confidence and self-control and self-defense.
• My personal philosophy includes training young men to channel their strengths and abilities in a positive way, which positively represents the sport, school, and community
