Every time I do a meet, I try to do a personal best,
so right now that's 347...347 pounds.

He has been called an inspiration.

We wrestled in high school together when he took second
at state at Senior," said Kenneth Cane. "A lot of people
took notice while he came up through the ranks. It doesn't
surprise me that he followed through to weight lifting.
He's a very determined individual and and if he sets his
mind of something he's gonna achieve it.

As for teaching... "I love my job. It's something new everyday...I like the challenge."
