Fuel Diesel's Dream: Wrestling Nationals Fargo North Dakota

I’m incredibly proud to share that my son has qualified to represent the state of Maryland at the prestigious Fargo Nationals wrestling tournament this summer! After a phenomenal season including earning first place in the WCAC (Washington Catholic Athletic Conference), he’s now earned the opportunity to compete on a national stage against the best in the country. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for him to grow as an athlete and continue chasing his dreams. I’m reaching out to ask for your support in helping us raise the necessary funds for travel, lodging, and tournament expenses. Every donation, no matter the size, brings us one step closer to getting him to Fargo and showing the nation what Maryland wrestling is all about. Thank you so much for your support!

As a single mother working two full-time jobs, I’ve done everything I can to support my children’s goals. I try to attend every one of my son’s wrestling tournaments, no matter how busy or far, because I believe in showing up and standing behind him every step of the way. At the same time, I’ve recently supported my daughter through college — she is now Class of 2025 Penn State graduate, education major. I couldn’t be prouder of both of them.

I am now reaching out to the community to ask for support. I’m working to raise the necessary funds for travel, lodging, and tournament expenses for Fargo. Every donation, no matter the size, brings me one step closer to getting him there and showing the nation what Maryland wrestling — and hard work — is all about.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for your encouragement, generosity, and support.
