This has been an exciting year….in sports, of course! With only one month to go, think back on 2011 and let us know what was the most exciting or inspirational or amazing or uplifting or thrilling sports story of the year.
Answer:
2011 was very crazy in the world of sports! So many highlights stood out this year from Aaron Rodgers leading his Green Bay Packers to their first title under his reign to the Dallas Mavericks defeating the big three of the Miami Heat. Many records were broken and new champions were crowned, but the most inspirational story that stood out to me was Anthony Robles winning the NCAA wrestling championship earlier in the year!
Against all odds with one leg, Anthony went 36-0 in his final year of wrestling and took out the defending champion in his final match for the national championship. Anthony defines perseverance and determination that many athletes do not have, which I respect a lot. Watching his final match was a great demonstration of his practice that he put in throughout the year, and I know he made his parents proud.
