Comments from Nick's Coach

Hi all,
Below is a nice comment about Nick I received from his head wrestling coach at Perrysburg High School after he read the blog discussion in my last post.
Blessings:)

very interesting comments. I enjoyed reading them. Nick is a fighter and I think you nailed it. he is an athlete in a non athletic body, and like a true believer in himself, he refuses to back down despite this. In wrestling we have one word to explain why we do what we do despite all the criticism about cutting weight, dieting, "rolling around with other guys" and all that stuff. That word is "toughness" and Nick is represents that with a capital T. It is something that true athletes know cannot be taught. It is purely one of the gifts God did give us to help overcome what logic may counter.
