Wrestling; when most people hear the word‚ they imagine a hefty man with bulging muscles in a skimpy singlet‚ throwing other men across the mat. In reality‚ this is not the case for all wrestlers. They don’t all have hulk like physiques. No one could have imagined a small‚ lean 5’3 girl like myself be a wrestler. Barely weighing over 100 pounds‚ I struggle with the dirty looks and glares I get. The news spread like wildfire around my gossip-loving-school that there was a girl on the wrestling team
