I have received several awards from football and wrestling and all of the awards have been very special. But one thing even more special to me was winning a state championship. I was blessed to win a state championship in wrestling my eighth grade year. I'm very proud and thankful for that accomplishment. Few people have had the privilege to win a state title. It took a lot of work to get to the point where I was able to win a championship. Great accomplishments come only with hard work and determination. I have always heard that if it is worth having, it is worth working for. So day in and day out everyday, I pushed myself to achieve this goal that I had for myself. The hard work paid off. Not even halfway through the first period of the match I pinned my opponent and won my first and only state championship! For as long as I live no one can take that away from me and it is something I'll never forget.
