There is no doubt, the hospitality room at @virginiaduals is EASILY the best in the country. There is an industrial kitchen next to the room and the nicest folks serving home made food ALL DAY. Anywhere else is not even close. Thank you!

The Hoos had 8⃣ guys named to the All-ACC Wrestling Academic Team for the 2022-23 season.
Hard work on the mat and in the classroom pays off!

This little girl tried saving her friends by pulling a fire alarm when she heard the Nashville shooter coming.
She was shot and killed.
Her name was Evelyn Dieckhaus.
HERO.
I applaud anyone that is all in. The kids that take every ounce of knowledge from every coach available. The ones that understand there is something to gain from the ones that have been there before you. The ones that know you can be selfish for yourself and also selfless for your team. The ones that show up everyday knowing they may not get to ever run out of a tunnel for their team.
I applaud the ones that give everything to something that is not guaranteed.
I held this picture back until today. Pain can be one of the biggest motivators.
I know a lot of these young men are feeling some sort of pain today- and it takes an immense amount of courage to say I’ll get back at it tomorrow and do it all over again for another chance next year.
As hard as it is to look at, this is a picture that says more than I could ever describe.

If you haven’t been to this tournament, you’re missing out. There is nothing better. If you think you’ve been to something that compares, you haven’t. If you’ve even stepped foot on the mat at an NCAA Championships, congrats. It’s very elite company.
6:30am Saturday 3/18: the last time @TigercoachJoeyD and @patrick_glory_ workout to make weight. Most people can’t understand a wrestling coach’s relationship with an athlete. It’s just different. An amazing run for these two.
An aspect missed tonight. Guys achieving a life long goal since childhood to AA in front of thousands of fans. Then minutes a later hopping on a bike to make weight for tomorrow. This sport is the epitome of accountability.
