throughout the season, and Robinson is
already focused on improving his scor-
ing and working while on top through
each match. Those were two areas he
felt he could have performed better in
last season. Improvements could al-
low him to win matches more handedly
rather than having to ride them out in
tight-score settings.
Robinson is ready to begin his second
quest for a national championship in as
many seasons. He has room on his shelf
for another trophy, but he knows the one
he currently has in his apartment won't
help him win any matches this year.
Instead, he has to forge another path
to the top of the podium at Rocket
Arena in Cleveland in March. If he does
that, then maybe he'll look at the pair
together a little more often each day.
"I've got to go do it again," Robinson
said. "Once I get two of them, I think
I'll be a little more satisfied." ■
Robinson enters his redshirt sophomore season ranked No. 1 in the 125-pound weight class by both FloWrestling and InterMat.
