Wrestling and Martial Arts

Hank has had a lifelong interest in the sports of wrestling and martial arts. As a professional wrestler, Hank was known as “The Minnesota Farm Boy” and was well on his way towards being a wrestling star. THEN a car accident ended that dream. However, martial arts has remained in his life up to the present. Through martial arts, he’s found the family he never had.
