Cory Casady
• School: Broomfield.
• Year: Junior.

• Etc.: Casady, who finished second at Class 4A state at 119 pounds last season, is ranked No. 1 in 4A at 140 and 16th in the nation by Wrestling USA magazine. Two weeks ago, he won his weight class at the Top of the Rockies Invitational.
• What food do you crave that you can't have much of during the season?
Pizza, with just about everything on it. But the more I eat, the harder it is to get back down to my weight.
• What is your favorite TV show and favorite movie?
On TV, it's the Family Guy; it's just a lot of fun to watch. My favorite movie is Gladiator. Isn't that kind of what wrestling is all about?
• Which is your favorite team to wrestle against?
Thompson Valley, because we become so energized when we wrestle against them. They have a great program, too, and our meets are so intense.
• What are your favorite songs on your iPod?
I like the soundtrack from the Rocky movies. It gets me pumped.
• If you had a million dollars . . .
I would buy lots of food. I wouldn't worry about what I ate.
