Sophomore Mason Hulse has been preparing for this day since he stepped his foot in high school. After falling one place short freshmen year, this year Hulse qualified for state and is looking to win the state title.
At districts, Hulse survived the first round by technical fall. He advanced to the semi-finals and pinned his man. He then took the chance to take on the championship match. He had no problem pinning his man to take the district win.
With a short time until his time to compete, he has done his normal routine; running on his own time, and practicing like normal.
When asked, Hulse said, “When I won the championship I was super excited and pumped up but knew I still had a lot of work left to do. When this is over, I will be sad but I will just keep in mind there is next year to prepare for. For now I need to focus on the opportunity I get and do the best I can.”
When asked how he feels about all the support he’s gotten from the community, he responded, “I am really glad they are coming out to cheer me on and that I get to see how supportive my own town and team are.”
Hulse will take his first match at Wells Fargo Arena in Des Moines today at 1:30.
