I was a wrestler myself back in the days and even during college when I was living in the dorms at UH Hilo… I served as an assistant at Waiakea for a year. Wrestling has always been in my blood and I was stoked to see Olympic Wrestler Jeffrey Cobb… Was also addicted to social media… LOL… (Caught you)
