| Garrett's first match of the year was at the Panguitch Invitational. Quite a large tourney with over 30 teams from all across the state attending. |

| His first match ever - A win!!! He hadn't even matched off in practice yet! |
Thank goodness for a great photographer who has a better camera than me. He emailed me pics at the end of the year! All the great ones come from him - mine are the blurry long range photos!
Garrett even came home most tourney's with a medal around his neck!
The last home match of the year - Senior Night:
Warmups
The cheer team really love the wrestlers. In McKenna's view - the wrestlers are the "better" boys - treating the girls with more respect on road trips and just in general at school. Here they are exchanging gifts:
McKenna's last year cheering for her favorite high school sport
Garrett getting "in the zone"
The best conclusion to a year of wrestling was qualifying for State. McKenna made her brother this sign just for him :)
I don't have any pics of Garrett's match's at state - must have been too busy cheering. Wow is all I have to say - it's quite an impressive sight! 1A-3A in the UVU McKay Events Center! Busy, crowded and high energy is all I have to say!
In the end, Garrett finished 5th in the
state. Pretty incredible for a first year wrestler. After Garrett would win a match through the year, folks would stop
me and say - "if they only knew it was his first year and they lost to
him!" You did good Garrett, you did good!
