[quote=Anonymous]My DH was very into sports growing up, specifically baseball, basketball, and football, in that order. He was an all-star little league pitcher mutliple years in a very competitive area. He's a natural athlete with strength and speed and great hand/eye coordination. But around 9th grade everyone shot past him in size. He played all three sports his freshman year in hs, then gave up because he just couldn't keep up. He's 5'6". (To this day it amazes me that he played football and basketball in 9th grade at that size, even if just JV). He would tell you that size matters for all sports, except wrestling -- which he never had any interest in, but his friend Larlo who is very small, I think about 5'4" or maybe smaller, was a state champion wrestler. And of course boxing, where they group you by size. [/quote]
