Went to State Wrestling this weekend to watch Cameron. Did not turn out so well. He wrestled and did good on Friday, won his first match by a pin. His second match was the returning State Champ from last year and had not lost a match this year. Cameron lost to him, he was ahead 4 to 1 the first round then he got pinned in the second round. Needles to say that kid went on to be the State Champ again this year. Cameron then won his 3rd match by teching him(won by 15 points ahead). He went to weigh in on Sat. morning and someone stopped him to look at his neck. He had a couple little bumps on his neck and they told him he could not wrestle in case it was a staff infection. Cameron passed skin checks and Friday and wrestled but I guess not Sat. So the poor kid was heart broke and had to default the rest of his matches and take 8th place. He most likely would have been going for 3rd or 4th place since he had lost that one match. He had showed the coaches and doc. at home the week before they left for State and they told him it was nothing contagious or was not anything he needed antibiotics for. It was not right what happened to him, that is what wrestlers work years and years for is the two days at State.
