Powerful statement by Audrey Jimenez during her press conference after earning the 110-pound national championship with Lehigh:
"I'm so happy to be here. I wanted to come into this tournament just being present, filling up my eyes with everything going on around me, filling up my heart with love and truly ... truly ... being where my feet are. I've been trying my best to separate myself from the results because as a wrestler, I don't want to be attached to that. I want to be attached to my journey and who I can become with wrestling, the people I can meet wrestling. Of course, it's really hard to do that. It takes constant practice, but I'm really more than the title."
