Summit P.E. Coach Josh Downing is hoping to change the narrative of what kids learn in class by introducing them to wrestling, and he may be one of the only teachers in the midwest to be doing this. He is being helped out by a few members of the @NixaWrestling team.

So proud to have had the opportunity to coach and call the offense for this group of Freshman Eagles! Finished the season off strong earning the W and finishing the season 8-1. Can’t say enough about how hard they work and can’t wait to see what the future holds for them!

An old Cherokee told his grandson:
"My son, theres a battle between two wolves inside us all. One is Evil and the other is Good.
The boy asked:
"Grandfather, which wolf wins?"
The old man quietly replied:
"The one you feed."
