Not many "not-so-good" kids wrestle between March and October, so there's obviously going to be more attention on the "accomplished ones" that are still competing at Fargo, NW Regionals, FS/G State, etc..

My son first met Coach Pete several years ago, and was at that time a very average wrestler. Pete gave him the same attention as any other kid whenever he saw him. Over the years, Pete has been a huge positive influence in his life, encouraging him to pursue his Faith, cheering him on, and answering the phone anytime he needed someone to talk to.

Does that prove you wrong? Probably not, because if you were to see Pete's posts that include pictures of my kid now, you would likely consider him as one of the accomplished ones.

I would highly encourage you to seek Pete out sometime. Sit and chat with him. He is one of the most genuine and entertaining people I have had the pleasure to meet.

If that's still not enough, perhaps look in the mirror and ask yourself... "How is Coach Pete affecting my life?" Does him handing out free Jesus shirts to wrestlers negatively impact your day?
