In Their Shoes Imagine . . you have been looking forward to this match since the beginning of the season. As the match ap- proached, you began to work out everyday; running, weightlifting, scrimmaging with others in your weight, and eating on a relatively strict diet. The day of the all im- portant match arrives and you are ready for it: Cir finals. You get up that morning not really hungry, but knowing you have to eat to keep your strength up. You arrive at the spot where the finals are being held and go into the locker room. As you get into your wrestling uniform, you think about your opponent and how to strengthen your weak- nesses. You feel butterflies in your stomach from being excited and nervous, Keep calm, it ' s just a match, you tell yourself as you start to stretch the kinks out of your body. Concentrate. Keep your mind on your match, no distractions. Mo distrac- tions. They announce your match over the broadcasting sys- tem. People start to crowd around you and yell shouts of en- couragement, you tell yourself to stay cool and not let them see you in the nervous state that you are in. You get on the mat and face your opponent. He looks tough, but you think you can pin him if you can just out-think him on his moves. The referee blows the whistle and your opponent leaps for you. It is the longest minute in your life. You hear the ref count somewhere in the back of your subconscience, but you know you must not break your concentration for even a second. All of a sudden the crowd roars and you realize that your are vic- torious! You woni All of that hard work paid offl The crowd quickly clears to go off to the next match.
