MIDDLETOWN: Dailey swings match to Hawks

Urbana senior wrestler Mike Dailey is moved by losses more so than wins.

When Dailey fell short of earning a medal at last year's state tournament at 171 pounds, he invested time over the summer in the weight room, adding muscle to his growing frame. He now wrestles at 215.
