QUOTES FROM THE GRECO-ROMAN CHALLENGE TOURNAMENT CHAMPIONS    119 - Brandon Paulson  "I wrestled really well. I felt good there. I felt strong and in shape. I wanted the first point in the match. That started it all for me. I felt really good after that first part."    "Shawn is one of the top five all-time in Greco-Roman wrestling. I know he is great but he is getting older. I wanted to get him tired. I just wanted to have fun out here. I got a little nervous before the match but I told myself that's not why I came back. I'm here to have fun."    "That's only the second five-point throw I've had in my life. The other was in the Pan Americans last year in Colombia. That's ever since I was a kid, 10 years old, starting with Greco."    127.75 - Jim Gruenwald    "I was solid. I had two solid matches in the Mini-Tournament. Part of my strategy was to be more patient. I tend to give up a lot of points against Dennis (Hall) in the first few minutes. I wanted to exercise some strategy, rather than be a brawler, as I have been called before. To beat Dennis, I have to do what I did in the Trials. I have to do what I did then, but better. I have to wrestle a smarter match. My strength and my shape are great now."    138.75 - Glenn Garrison    "I wrestle with guys like Nieradka, and Oscar Wood, every day. Shon Lewis coaches us every day and finetunes our basics and calls attention to our problems. I couldn't be doing as well without having met my wife and joining the Army."    "Every time we wrestled before (Kevin Bracken) has beaten me. I have to stay focused and come out hard and aggressive."    152 - Keith Wilson    "Life has been tough. Before Nationals, I thought I broke my leg. I didn't train for Nationals, but I did OK. I knew I could beat everybody here. I'm raising my child by myself. Finally, I'm putting everything together. Anatoly (Nazarenko) and Bob Anderson have helped me. I want to thank my coaches, and thank my 10 years of experience. All these years, I've never put it all together on the right day. There are two more matches to win before I am done."    "Oscar is up and coming and hungrier than a lot of people. He is going to be there. He'll be the one to beat in the weight class soon."    "Cooper and I go way back. He wrestled under me when we were both in the Marine Corps. We wrestled each other for many years. We know each other. It will be about who doesn't make mistakes. He's a great competitor. I look forward to the challenge."    167.5 - T.C. Dantzler    "You have to wrestle solid, with no mistakes. Dan knows how to win. He is one of my good friends. He knows how I strategize and I know how he does. He is also one of my chess opponents out there. This was a physical chess match. You make no mistakes and you don't lose the queen early."    "For Sieracki, I am just going to wrestle him. I've never beaten Keith. That's what makes it more fun. A year ago, he kept me off the Olympic Team. We are also good friends. But for those six to nine minutes, it's just like he's another guy off the streets. I won't have any trouble getting motivated for those matches."    187.25 - Dan Henderson    "I've done less wrestling practice. I've had about two weeks this year. I've been in shape training for fights. My timing was off at the Nationals, when I trained."    "I still have not won a medal yet (at the Worlds or Olympics). I admit it was harder to get motivated this year. But, I'm not going another four years for another Olympic Games. I'm done after this year. Fighting, I am making so much money. It's hard to get motivated for wrestling. But this shows I do it for the love of the sport. It's certainly not for the money; there's none in wrestling."    "Everybody's different. I have a lot of different game plans with everybody. Lindland's biggest asset is his lift. I need to stay on top of him, or keep taking him down. It will be two good matches that I win."    213.75 - Jason Loukides    "This is as close to being healthy as I have ever been. Last year I had to sit out with a shoulder surgery."    "Your first year doing Greco full-time, you get worse a little bit. You take a step back. I had to learn Greco-Roman all over again. It's come back for me now."    "I tried to be very careful (with Sankey). Once I had my points, I knew I had the advantage."    "Garrett (Lowney) doesn't make any mistakes. He doesn't beat himself. You have to wrestle hard. I'm 1-1 with Garrett. I beat him in '99 at the World Team Trials, and I lost at Nationals."    286 - Dremiel Byers    "Scoring early is always a plus. I was trying to stay focused the entire match. I reminded myself that I can remember a few things that I do well. But, I couldn't score a lift and couldn't get him up. I'm worried about my weight. It all has taken me away from where I need to be. I'm lucky to have coaches like Shon Lewis and Mike Van Arsdale to help stay on me, and have Rodney Smith here to snap me out of whatever it is that I am thinking about."    "Beating Rulon is easy, if you beat the hell out of the guy you see in the mirror each morning. It's all up to me. That's what it takes to beat him. He keeps pushing hard. You have to match him and stop it. I'm not intimidated."
