SJHS State Wrestling

This year the 1A-3A state wrestling tournament was in Prescott, so it was the perfect opportunity for Ben and I to see BOTH of our families! So we headed up to Prescott Friday night and it was so nice to see everyone. I had all kinds of family up there because both of my uncles coach and my cousin Austin was wrestling. Unfortunately we never got to see Austin wrestle, but we heard he did awesome! Good job buddy!

SJ had THREE state champions - Ryder, TJ, & Billy and two runner ups - Shad and Reece! And the team took state! Way to go boys!! They were saying the last time SJ took state in wrestling was 1990! Crazy! I give props to my uncle Brandon - he coaches middle school AND high school and they BOTH took state! He does such a great job and is such a good coach:)
My dad was HEAD referee this year - way to go daddy!
This pic has a story behind it. My family kept calling this other referee "Joe Jr." So I told my dad and he goes, "You didn't stick up for me?!" And I said, "Nope, I took a picture!" LOL My dad said the other referees were calling them the Mr. Clean team. haha And its even better in this pic because they are standing exactly alike!

I will get to see my family again this weekend when the girls come down for state basketball...good luck girls!
