Wrestler Spotlight: Mark Grey

Mark Grey answered some questions, check it out below.

  1. What (or who) inspires you?
        My mother inspires me the most probably. She is such a strong woman and the things I see her do on a daily basis is unbelievable and the fact that she would do anything for anyone is the reason she's a role model for me.

  2. Who is a wrestler that you look up to?
        I'd have to say Kyle Dake just because of how well he knows wrestling and how he is just improving every day it's been a pleasure to be up in Ithaca the last five years and watch him and watch how hard he works.

  3. What made you decide to wrestle competitively?
       
    My parents would bring me to all of Mike's tournaments so I guess I was just brought up in the culture and just loved it.

  4. What advice would you give yourself as a college freshman?
       
    My advice I would give myself as a freshmen would probably be don't fight your size and stay down at a certain weight. I think I would of had less injuries and struggles if I cut weight less and just focused on getting better at wrestling and lifting a lot. Also, just believe in yourself no matter what never doubt yourself, block all of the negative doubts in your mind and just keep everything positive.

  5. What has been your favorite moment of the season so far?
     
      The best moment of the season was probably last week at EIWAs the team came together as a family and fought hard to win that 11th title and I thought I wrestled pretty good as well.
