Wrestling prepares a person to compete in the game of life. The wrestler is the one athlete that must meet their opponent and do battle completely on their own. No one can substitute and time outs are not possible. You have no one to check, screen, and block or assist you in anyway; there is no one to pass the ball to and no one to blame for your mistakes. When you win, you must display quiet pride and modesty; when you lose the responsibility is yours.
Wrestling is a special sport. In other sports, when contact is made, they blow the whistle and stop the action; in wrestling when contact is made, we’re just getting started.
BHS Wrestling Mission Statement: Bluestem High School Wrestling is committed to developing champions both on and off the mat. We believe a Champion is one who lives by high ideals, knows how to set realistic goals, and to dedicate themselves toward achieving them. The goal of this program is to make the wrestling experience enjoyable, educational, and enriching! We expect our athletes and coaches to represent our program and school in an acceptable fashion at all times.
