badass little wrestler wins state title



This little badass is Luke Villaluz, a second-grader with the Norwalk Mad Bulls wrestling program who recently won the Connecticut Cup Freestyle Championship: Young Norwalk Wrestler Adds Another State Title.

Villaluz had his hands full early as he wrestled highly regarded Ryan Finn from Simsbury's Youth wrestling club. Villaluz got off to a slow start in a frenzied first period and found himself in early trouble in the bout. He had a brief conversation with coach Haus in between periods and made the necessary adjustment, as he prevailed with a dramatic match-ending pin over his counterpart.

Haus continued, "Luke remained calm cool and collected, he didn't panic … and in the end wrestled the match at his own pace and settled in for the pin to win the title.
This was largely an excuse to post that awesome photo of Luke on the mat. Kid looks like he's just chillin. More here: Norwalk Youth Wrestling crowns first state Freestyle champion.
