Heavyweight Takedown
Kyle is the star of his junior high wrestling team's A squad. Not only does he win most of his matches, but he's also the heavyweight... the wrestler that gets to go last in a tournament and hopefully clinch the victory for the team. So when a new kid, Kenny, shows up and challenges Kyle for the heavyweight spot (and wins it), Kyle's confidence shrinks. Now on the B squad, Kyle is frustrated. He wants his team to do well, and Kenny is a good wrestler. But Kyle also wants to be on the A squad. Can Kyle come up with a way to help his team?
