Jordan Sheilds, 130 lb 2007 PIAA State Champion

This has to be a dream come true Jordan? "Oh yeah, I have been working all year round ever since last year's states. I've been working in the room busting my tail every day. Shane Welsh has been an amazing workout partner. Without him this couldn't have happened. Shields Chiropractic has kept my back in alignment - my uncle, Doc Sheilds. I'm only a junior so I'll be back next year, hopefully to repeat. It's an amazing dream come true to me. My goal next year is to achive the gold medal again. It's going to take alot of work but I'm willing to put it in to achieve all my goals. " I asked Jordan who he owed all his success to up to this point in his career. In a very happy, emotional way, "We might not get along all the time, but my brothers have been there for me; they have pushed me; I love them to death. We don't get along but I love them, without them I couldn't have done this. My friends have just been there making sure that I'm doing the extra steps, never cutting me any breaks. I just love them to death and they know I will be there for them anytime they need me. I just love my brothers and friends to death. " Congratulations Jordan. Very classy kid with a class act father. Enjoy your gold.
