Wrestling Tournaments 2 and 3

Tucker had his 2nd and 3rd wrestling tournaments these past Saturdays.  The 2nd tournament was pretty tough for Tucker. He had to wrestle a boy who was at least 3 inches taller than him and he just couldn't get in to take a shot because this boy just tall.  He ended that day winning 1 match by points and loosing the other 2 matches by points.  He still ended up taking 3rd place.

The pictures below are from the 3rd wrestling tournament.  He was very nervous about wrestling again, but he got out there and worked really hard.  He won 2 of the 3 matches both by pins.  His second match he lost by points, but it was really tough match and close score at the end.  I'm so proud of him for getting back out there and working so hard.  He ended up with 2nd place.  He is looking forward to next Saturday.
