005competing in the fifth grade and I started wrestling because both of my older brothers wrestled um I tried soccer out it was fun but I kind of didn't like it so I mean I tried this out and I just kind of fell in love like from day one but you know it's actually kind of cool because me and Connor were both the team captains this year and we both started wrestling on the same day so that's pretty cool a good friend to come try it out and I liked it too motivated what motivates me is the fact that there's other girls in our team so I want to motivate them so that that's like my motivation and also like obviously trying to go for the title to state what does it mean to you to
006be Rigo's first girl state champion wrestler um I think it's really important because it like shows to like we go and like to a lot of like other schools that like you know girls can do it too do you have anything to say to any girls who are on the fence about joining wrestling I say try it out you never know if you're gonna end up liking it and you know don't be scared because we're not here to judge and we all start somewhere what are your goals for this season my goal is killing the Regionals I'm already this far I can't I can't let it go this time what keeps you going to your goals I stay hungry how long have you been wrestling for this will be my fifth sixth year what are
007your goals for this season to win conference and hopefully get to like sectionals and like state what inspires you to join wrestling I kind of just wanted to try something new without like just trying to try as a big deal what do you have to say to any girls who want to join wrestling um to just like give it a try because you might not know if you like it or not what inspired you to throw in Russia um my football coach is really they really um that they just really inspired us to they said it'll be great for um for my position I play lineman and they told me it would be great and so I decided that to find me to join what are your goals for this season what was my season
008at least play sports the conference and see how far that takes me hopefully go to state good luck to you thank you my dad did so I was five six years old sitting on the couch dad's like hey uh do you want to try out wrestling had no idea what it was so I was like yeah you know what I'll give it a shot so sure enough I went out and uh I never looked back at the journey really I just I just stuck with it I was like I love this sport I really want to stick with it and uh I really been in the sport for I wrestled for 16 about 16 years and I've been involved Maybe 19 now wants just a little bit extra motivation keep going I would say if
009you're willing to push yourself I would say go for it uh this isn't an easy sport for everybody uh I'm gonna be brutally honest uh the room's 60 to begin with halfway through the season drops down about 40. those are usually your guys even sometimes that's divided in half but really it's just divided up to who's got the biggest heart who's willing to put the work in you can't make somebody do it [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] thank you [Music] thank you [Music] foreign [Music] foreign a year uh this is my Force here coaching at West Chicago I think 12th or third teeth overall well I think we have a lot of Club swimmers kids who take the sport seriously who trained year-rounds uh we pull from uh charts obviously which is the West Chicago football
010team um but then they're they're uh the Academy bullets is another club team that we've pulled from and then FMC fatic so we do have a lot of pretty serious swimmers who train year round so I think that's that's a big part of it um when they come to us in November uh they're in pretty good shape and they're ready to go so um we can kind of hit the ground running and uh train them pretty hard from that yeah so it's a pretty even amount from all three schools this year we have 25 boys on the team um then years past after last year we had 30 uh but it's it's a nice blend of all three schools not one school dominates the co-op um I think we'll do pretty well last year we
011took seventh had to save me uh we graduated two seniors who were pretty important to the team bucks uh Brady Johnson is a really good swimmer um he will probably take top six two individual events uh Ryan Four's is another really good swimmer from Batavia um I'm hoping that he scores a point or two at the state need and then we have two relays that right now are ranked top six in a state so um I'm hoping that we can finish top six and multiple different events and hopefully we'd be the top 10 at the state meeting on again this year
