Excellence
Excellence is the highest quality of life one tries to attain.
It is the reflection of one’s hardwork and abilities.
A person with excellence does not need to tell everyone he has it,
For it shows through in every move and action he makes.
I believe excellence can be switched with the word pride.
A person with excellence has a positive attitude and appears to have their nose
And spirits higher than everyone else.
Excellence is a principle that most men try to attain through out a lifetime.
The person with the most excellence is the person who tries the hardest,
Overcoming all obstacles and meeting all challenges.

Preliminary Brackets are on our team's homepage: www.gmwrestlingcruisers.webs.com
My guess is that these brackets change a couple of times by tomorrow morning, but this could be a good gauge if only minor changes are made.

Lacey and Mowery will probably be the match of the day in my opinion. Looks like DiBeneditto and Lange are both slated at 145. If that is the case, who might challenge Comfort at 138?

Nice job, ptown3, on the pre tourney predictions. You did quite well over all.
Nice day of wrestling over at Scioto. The Mowery-Lacey natch certainly didn't disappoint.
The HVY final was sort of a buzzkill with Akutsu having to 'medical'. I think a final between Contraras and Akutsu would have been pretty good, though Akutsu would have most likely won. As it was, John Adams extra got a essentially a free pass to the finals given the way the finals broke out. The HVY semi-final between Contraras and Sanchez from John Adams was a great match and would have been a terrific way to the tourney.
