My Colorado nephews all are big wrestlers. They've been doing this for a few years now. The oldest is a sophomore in high school. There's a sixth grader. And then there's the FOUR-year-old. Yep, the 4-year-old. He LOVES it because his big brothers have been wrestling for years, and they've been teaching him all their moves. Turns out, he's also pretty good at it.
He and the 11-year-old (he'll be 12 soon; he'd want you to know that!) wrestled in a tournament this weekend. The 11-year-old wrestled really well and took 3rd place.
But then it was Isaiah's turn to shine. He wrestled like he was born to. Pinned all his opponents, and took FIRST place! Not only that, but he was awarded Outstanding Wrestler for 2010 for that wrestling group!
Did I mention that he's FOUR!!!
And in case you think he's all brawn and no brains...he's in preschool. And he knows how to spell his name. Take note people: that's "I S A I--dot at the top--A H."
Great job Isaiah. We're proud of you!
Not sure why this photo is smaller than the others,
but...that's Isaiah, about to SLAM his opponent to the ground!
With one of the coaches after his big win.
Trophies!
