Brent Extra Curriculars

Man, what can I say about Brent. He is smart, funny and has about a millions hobbies. This boy could entertain himself for years with the hobbies he currently has AND he is finding new ones everyday. I can barely keep up!

Lately, two have taken up the majority of his time. First is his inter-mural flag football team with his law school buddies! There last game was this past Wednesday.

I usually skip it because after working, going to the gym, cleaning and everything else I do... I am tired. Since it was his last, however, I made and appearance!

They ended up losing the game. Brent said there were to many guys there and it was FREEZING so when he was waiting his turn he just wanted to get warm and therefore he didn't have a good game. I am guessing this is pretty accurate since it looked like no one had a good game.

Brent second hobbie is Ju Jitsu. This semester he decided to take a ju jitsu class at BYU. I thought it would be fun and encouraged him. Today, was his end of the semester tournament.

Stretching out...

In his GI...

The tournament was REALLY REALLY poorly organized. I was sitting around in the same chair for roughly 6 hours. This is what I was doing for some of it.

This is Brent's first fight. It was against a guy who was about 30-40 pounds heavier and had been training for 11 months (5 days a week).

I was super impressed because Brent kept this guy on his toes.

There were no rounds, it was a fight until submission. His first fight was over in about 5 minutes but Brent said he was exhausted after 20 seconds!

This is his second fight. There were roughly 5 hours in between and after calling him up to fight, he had to wait another 1.5 hours until he actually did. Any energy he had built up was gone after that wait!

That fight took about a minute until the other guy (who had also been training ALOT more than Brent) got him into a lucky Arm Bar.

Doesn't he look tired?

This kid is so willing to try everything. I am glad to announce that he is done fighting because the tournament was just not fun at all. He did really well and I am proud that he took the initiative to try something new!
