8 years ago, I sat matside and watched Hayden lose a heartbreaker in the NCAA finals. This weekend I watched him coach his first NCAA Champion and it was one of the most emotional and impactful moments of my entire wrestling career. Words can't describe how proud and happy I am for his passion and hard work to get rewarded. This sport is so brutal and it is important to celebrate the victories. I am still crying!
This was also my first time coaching at the tournament and it was a joy seeing wolfpackwrestling guys achieve their goals. I am so proud of isaactrumble_ and 10k.vinooo for being such great leaders of the program. I know the rest of the team is already hungry for next season. We are going to keep raising the bar at NC STATE!
