Competition brings out that sentiment better than anything, and it’s far too common that it comes from driven parents. Now step aside from the vision of two dads coming to blows over whose boy should be pitching, and imagine it’s the five-year-old telling his father to […]

Reading Time: 2 minutes Learning isn’t always fun. There was a lot of learning when the UVU wrestling team went head-to-head against defending national champion Penn State, which won convincingly 39-3.
