I'll jump right to the punchline: Quinn was the champion of her weight class in the take-down tournament! It was her first tournament, it's her first year of wrestling, and let's not forget that she was the only child in the tournament without wrestling shoes (mom fail, she wrestled in socks!) But it didn't matter! She was tough and fierce and strong and flipped her opponents around like she owned them. Her physical intuition is a wonder to me and I sat there through the whole tournament (also my first) in total awe that she knew what to do, where to move, how to win. There's not been a sport she's touched so far that hasn't found her on top and is it fun? HOLY COW IT IS FUN!!! I love to watch her go. (Also, she made kids cry. I guess that's a thing in wrestling because there were so many tears around that mat. Some of them were caused by the cutest blonde girl in hot pink socks!)
Quinny and her wrestling buddy Tru.
Def going to buy her socks. Def going to buy her a unitard. Def going to buy her headgear. Def going to be her biggest fan for the rest of her life!!!
