TEAMWORK Even though one man is on the mat at a time, the
Terriers are a team in every sense of the word. Whether its staying after practice to shoot with a partner or encouraging teammates to get a late takedown in a big match, BU wrestlers strive to make the team greater than the sum of its parts.
CARL ADAMS
