I have always been active in sports. I love competition and best of all I love winning. I recently joined the wrestling team at my high school. It’s not until I joined wrestling that I noticed the great division between male and female athletes.
When I first joined I had many people question why I would join. I had a member of the team ask me if I was serious about joining. I said I was and that I was trying to convince one of my friends to join as well ( a girl). He said he wanted more guys to join, not girls and he told me he wanted to see me lift as much as he could. Many people told me they didn’t expect I would join, including one of the coaches. What ever that means. I left it at that. I wasn’t going to let any of this keep me from joining.
