Icefighters

"IceFighters" it simply stands for a group of young men who will fight until Hades freezes over but then they will continue to fight on the ice. This has been the mind set that has been carried since Coach Jefferson has been at the helm of the Muskogee Wrestling Program, but it now has a name. Today, all across the state, whenever any of the other programs see that rougher green walk into their gymnasium they know they are in a fight, because the "IceFighters" have entered the building. The term "IceFight or Die" commonly known as I.O.D. originated amongst one of the 'Original IceFighters' during the 'The College Years' in Coach Watts. Watts, like the fellow 'Original IceFighters' take the "IceFighter" name very seriously. It has life ramifications to it rather than just pertaining to a person in competition. It can help motivate an individual through tough situations. Think about what this is really saying for a moment: competing against someone with a mentality of never giving up, standing up for one's belief's, if having that mentality about life problems. "Someone that will fight until the impossible happens (Hades Freezing), and then they will continue to fight you after that". "You either fight or Die". Think about how powerful this is. When we say die we mean, if you "Die" there is a part of you that gives up. It may be mentally, physically or spiritually. If you give up/quit once it is easier to do it again. Now apply it to everyday life. It may not be something that is life threatening but may involve a crucial choice, a debt or a tragedy. That is the only option that you have when you are faced with adversity, fight until you end up on top or just roll over & let it get the best of you!!
