Jordan Rogers finished with a silver medal and wrestled extremely well all day. It was nice to see a supportive contingent of people there to cheer him on. He made quick work of his opponents from Benin and Guam, and won a tough battle against the Egyptian wrestler. In the finals Jordan was defeated by a Turkish wrestler. It was funny to see all of the Singapore kids that were volunteers run up to Jordan after the tournament because they thought he looked like Zach Effron or Justin Beiber, I'm not quite sure which one. He had quite the fan club!!

Quinton Murphy also wrestled well in the competition to finish in fourth place. He had 2 wins and 2 losses. He also wrestled with a lot of heart and aggression.

In my opinion, Quinton and Jordan have very bright futures in the sport of wrestling and the sky could be the limit if they continue to put the time in and work hard. They now know what its like to compete in an international competition and handled themselves well.

The day after competition was spent visiting Chinatown and buying souvenirs for family and friends back home. We also saw a few temples and took pictures of the beautiful scenery. On the way back to the hotel we saw a man that was playing an instrument for a snake. I don't know what possessed me, but I asked the man if I could hold the snake. My friends took quite a few pictures. We also visited Marina Bay where the Olympic Games ceremonies were held and took pictures with their Singpore monument of a lion. Tonight we plan on going to the lobby of our hotel to the Sporting House, which has offered free drinks and food from 5pm to 10pm for the duration of the Games.

The people of Singapore have been very accommodating and it has been a wonderful experience. Again, thank you USA wrestling for sending me to Mexico to have the opportunity to be evaluted to come here.

Mr./Mrs. Rogers please send the photos to me email that were taken of team USA after the competition yesterday. I would really appreciate it.
