Another tournament

Jake had his third wrestling tournament today. He had four kids in his weight bracket this time (35 pounders!) Unfortunately, he finished in fourth place. He was pinned VERY quickly in his first match, but his second match was another story. Although he lost, he was never pinned. This was the first match that went through two periods and then was decided on points. Even though he didn't win, he fought so hard. He twisted out of several near pins by his opponent. It was exciting to see that he was starting to use some of the moves that he has learned rather than lay down and give up! (Jake is wearing the black singlet)




Almost pinned!


Look at him twist out of this near pin! He's learned so much!
