Robles bringing his Unstoppable message to Cache Valley

Being born with only one leg didn’t stop Anthony Robles from achieving great heights and championships. He was introduced to the sport of wrestling when he was 14 years old and went on to become a state high school champion, national high school champion, three time All American while at Arizona State and Division 1 Wrestling Champion. Robles is also an author and motivational speaker, and will be sharing his story on Saturday, June 8th at Ridgeline High School. “I was born missing my leg to a single mom who was 16 years old. We both had our challenges going through,” Robles said when he was a guest on 106.9 The Fan’s Full Court Press program. “That’s what I’m going to share with people. I wrestled not just on the mat but off the mat as well. “Whatever you are wrestling with, whatever the challenges are, you can be unstoppable. That’s the message I want to get across. No matter what you face, you have to choose to be unstoppable and you can do it.”

Robles will be participating in a wrestling clinic at Ridgeline High School throughout the day, but will be speaking to the public at 6 p.m. in the high school’s auditorium. He says the message he has to share is for all people, not just wrestlers. If I can change one individual’s life I’ve done my job. “Bullying is bigger than ever now. I feel like that youth age is hard to reach, but if I can change one individual’s life I’ve done my job,” Robles continued. “That’s my goal. Every time I have an event, every time I have a wrestling clinic, if I can reach somebody and even if they forget what I said but remember I had a positive impact on them, and they can remember something that helps them get through a speed bump in their life then I accomplished my goal.”
