Steve Fiser Quotations

That's what seniors do. Ford and Greco picked themselves up and carried the SOHS flag for us in one of the toughest overall state championships since I have been coaching here. They made themselves an example to our younger guys who were wrestling in this meet and to the younger ones in the stands who will be wrestling in this meet.

Ben Warner is a great individual and a great wrestler. He is the one guy that really had a shot at beating Derek this year. This match was proof of Derek's ability. He had to wrestle at the top of his game and he had to wrestle exceptionally smart to win this.

The fact he didn't come out until his sophomore year makes this a really amazing win. Daniel is the hardest working kid I have ever had since becoming the coach here. I can promise you he is in the best shape of anyone in the building and that showed tonight.

This is absolutely awesome for our program. It was a great three days for us. We punched three kids into the finals and all three won. What these kids went through this year and what they did down here this week, it's just one of the best feelings of my life.

I think with what we did, and how well the kids from Oldham did and you throw in the four young kids from North who came down here and gave a really good account of themselves - it's pretty impressive. I think it shows the strength of the sport on our county. I think it's safe to say there's not another county our size in the state that put out these kind of results.

He's a three-time state champion and everyone has been gunning for him all year long. Give him credit. He responds to the pressure of big matches. I think he's just one of those once in a lifetime kids every coach is lucky to have at some point.

Those three that won it for us were just phenomenal. I was so happy to see Daniel get his first and Taylor and Derek did what they always do. They were the two holdovers from our state championship team and since that year they have just put this program on their backs and kept it at the highest level in the state.
