Trenton's Wrestling Banquet 2010

Took a trip to Naperville today for Trenton's wrestling banquet. I thought it was really nice...complete with grilled chicken sandwich or hamburger, pasta salad, french fries, brownies and all the fixins. Showed a slideshow for the year and added lots of personable touches...one being a time when any of the wrestlers could get up and share "Remember When's" - these were funny! One of the boys shared a story about Trenton's first varsity wrestling match, him being so excited and nervous that he forgot his wrestling shoes!! We actually had to bring Tyler's for him to borrow that time!!! lol Trenton received Academic All Conference (over a 3.3 gpa during wrestling season) and his varsity letter (starting 5 or more times for the team). It didn't stop there, however, Trenton received the Coach's Appreciation Award (shared with Zobac) for just being where the team needed him whenever they needed weight wise, etc. and never complaining about it. It was a nice honor. And then to complete his awards, Trenton and Jake got one of the "cutest couple" awards. This was more of a jokester award for a few of the guys who stayed with the same workout partner all year. It was funny. Had a good time listening to the Seniors' speeches and talking with some of Trenton's teammates and coaches. It was a good year and I know he is looking forward to next year. His arm looked sore...all wrapped up ready to be looked at tomorrow morning by an orthopedist. Pray for good news. So proud of you today, Trenton. Keep up the good work.
