Sophomore Zamir spent the first half of the school year in the weight room. He always worked with focus and determination. He is a self-started who would set goals for himself and diligently work in the weight room to achieve those goals. Although he was quiet and focused, he was always a leader and there to help others push themselves to be better. As winter season approached, Zamir began his first year as a wrestler. At practices he showed the same level of maturity and discipline and he soaked in every word from his coaches. As a first year wrestler in the beginning of the season he had to rely heavily on the strength gains he achieved. As the season continued, Zamir developed technique that drove him to dominate at Area, through sectionals and ultimately placing 10th in the state in the 152 weight class. Even though this was his first year, the benefits from his strength training coupled with his coachable attitude helped bring him through to a very successful season. Zamir is the epitome of an All American Strength and Conditioning Athlete of the Year, taking the advantages he has gained from his strength training and translating that to success on the mat.
