High school wrestler forfeits state tournament immediately when he sees who opponent is

There’s always a large degree of respect to be earned for sticking by your beliefs or sacrificing something in the name of your faith.

Brendan Johnston, a former high school wrestler from Colorado, knows all about that. Back in 2018, he reportedly forfeited no less than two state tournament matches that were supposed to take place against girls.
