The individual memhers work hard together and form 4 riendship becoming More Them ust az Team All the wrestlers slept while the bus hummed down the highway. I, the female wres- tling manager, kept growing more bored. But wait, I had an idea! I stealthily moved along the aisle of the bus, tying the members' shoelaces together. As they woke. they got a sur- prise and I got a laugh. At the meet. the wrestlers' performances displayed deter- mination to win. One by one, as they came off the mat, I asked how they thought they did, told them they knew what to work on during practice, smiled, and offered encour- agement. As female manager, my job was to keep statistics and re- cords ofthe matches, take in- ventory, issue equipment, call in the results of home meets, and keep track of the trainer's kit at the meets. Most of the wrestlers ac- cepted me as a part ofthe team and we became friends. Being manager was both rewarding and painful. Ifa wrestler won, I was happy, if a wrestler was injured, I felt his paing if a wrestler lost, I was disappoint- ed for him and the team, but I knew that each time someone competed, he came back with more experience. The wres- tling team was more than just a team . . . it was a family. STRIIGGIJNG AGAINST his op- ponent.
