Luke Washington has always been a lover of sports, from baseball to football, soccer, and track. Luke Washington was a true competitor. "I just loved to go up against others, the feeling of winning was always special to me since it made all the work that lead up to the victory be worth it." But one sport some may not have known that Luke had played was wrestling during his time in High School. "I didn't know a single thing about wrestling when I joined the team during 10th grade. I mostly did it because the wrestling coach was the Linebacker Coach and he wanted us to learn how to use our hands and have a better awareness of our body placement/movement." When asked about the level of his play Washington laughed and said " I wasn't really that good, I only knew a couple moves and most of the time I was just winging it, when I faced someone that actually knew what they were doing, I got my ass kicked, hahaha." In the end Luke saw his time in all of the other sports he had played as perfect preparation for his football career, teaching him how to handle winning and losing, being a great teammate, and learning how to get the most out of his coaches.
