HILLSBORO - Your name is Dustin Carter, and you inspire people in ways you do not even know.

Dustin Carter Hosted on Zooomr

When a reporter and photographer show up at Hillsboro High School, they are surprised to find you a bit in the doldrums from having just lost a wrestle-off.

Your teammate - not you - will represent Hillsboro in the 103-pound weight class in the upcoming meet.

You are down in the dumps.

This is not the Dustin Carter they remember.

Where did that Dustin go?

Do the people who read your story in The Enquirer last year know that you - like every other high school wrestler in Ohio for the first time this year - had to take a hydration test and body-fat test before the season began to make sure that you will be wrestling at a physically safe weight?

Do they know what it’s like to be pinched for body fat when you barely have any places to pinch to locate any such body fat? Do they know that your body is one solid torso of muscle?

eBay is just amazing when you want to find sports gear. From wrestling to hockey, football, basketball and more, there is no end to what you can find.

Don’t think it’s just used stuff either. Some popular sports stores sell gear when they are trying to get rid of last years shoes or odds and ends.

I’ve recently gotten a pair Red Adidas Tyrint II Wrestling Shoes for about $25. Never before worn, and perfect in every way. Not as good as my $8 deal a month or two ago, but still it’s quite nice.

I recommend everyone check out eBay for great sports gear deals before they pay full price at the store. You never know what you might find!
