The Scrappy Wrestlers of Fort Dodge

"Fan Reaction to National Wrestling Title."

The article goes on to say that Drake, from Fort Dodge, Iowa, claimed gold at the 2017 Cadet Freestyle National Championships.

Fan reaction was ecstatic, by the way:
"Natty Champ!"
"Unbelievable comeback"
 "One tough SOB!"
"Congratulations for winning Fargo dominantly!"

But doesn't he look a little...um...thin to be a high school wrestler?  Who is winning national championships?  And has fans?

I looked him up:  Drake has been attending Fort Dodge High School, where he's been very busy racking up championships in 2018, the War at West Gym, the Independence Graeco-Roman Tournament, the Northern Plains Regional, and so on.

I guess thin and scrappy is just as good as buffed.


Compare with some of his teammates.

Drew also looks rather on the thin side.

















Harlan has a presentable physique.




















Jonah looks rather thin.


















Brody, too.





















And Cullen.















Sam has a physique.  That's 2 out of 7.  I guess Fort Dodge wrestling goes for scrappiness rather than strength.

















And football goes for bulk.
