IMO Dendy and Reiniche are the best match up in almost the whole state. And I give credit to both kids on staying down a weight when both could have gone up to 60 and had the easiest state bracket in all of the state. Reiniche won the first match by fall, and I expect dendy to come back with a little something to say about that, but I see Reiniche weathering the storm and being in better shape then dendy is to win the match in the third. Dendy to have a chance at winning has to turn on top but I have never seen Reiniche be turned while on bottom against anyone in his high school career both instate and out of state. So I see this being a very tall feet. For Reiniche to win he needs to escape bottom and push the pace on his feet. This should be a very exciting rematch if both wrestlers meet in finals.

Well I just think that Dendy is just the all around better wrestler and Dendy will be wrestling to win and open up more he didn't go for much in the last match and I think that was a big factor in him losing. Dendy will be wrestling to win because it is his last shot and he doesn't want to be a four team me state runner up. If Dendy opens up on his feet the match could be blown open early

Look, it's hardly worth locking horns over, because the match means nothing, but you said "And Berry was leading Duffy at 160 the entire match."

 

In actuality, Duffy won the first 4-1, Berry won the second and was up by one, and the 3rd was scoreless when the fall occurred. Both are young wrestles and anything could happen the next time they meet.

I agree. No hard feelings. Simply a miss wording on my part. Both wrestlers are very young and make mistakes but both fun to watch.

He rode for almost a full period. Shape is always an issue with Dendy but in the matches I have seen him wrestle this year it has not been. This one is too close to call in my opinion but a turn is not necessary. The wrestler who gets a takedown wins this match and Dendy was very close last weekend. Both tough on top and bottom both but slightly defensive wrestlers on their feet. Someone will slip up and make a mistake like Dendy did this last weekend and that will cost them the match. There might be a little extra in the line in the team race as well. This is a HUGE match. Can't wait to watch!!

Gonna be fun to watch for sure man! And just one last thing I'm gonna say on this but yes dendy almost did get the takedown in the first but Reiniche being the resourceful wrestler he is was able to scramble out of it. I see this being how Reiniche scores his points in the finals match from Dendy's shots creating scrambles and capitalizing on them. But can't wait to see this play out.

Reiniche lost 11-0 to FRHS two years ago in the state finals.

[TD2]

Wasn't he just an 8th grader then?

yes he was. He also lost 8-4 that previous weekend to a much more physically developed junior from FRHS. It was 3-0 or 2-0 heading into the third period against FRHS in the state finals and Reiniche tried to win the match and ended up giving up major points. But yes I had forgotten he gave up a 5 point move from the top position one match out of his 3 year high school career. My bad

You don't go much of regions do you ? 4 match ups here were wrestled in regions and the opposite wrestler won I like your thoughts upsets .

I have loved watching Mason's career so far and can't wait to see where it goes. I remember that match well. He got turned in the first so was down 4-0. Then later picked top in the third and got reversed to his back, and turned again with 10 seconds left to lose 11-0. Kid from FRHS was tough. Lost to I believe Coach Simpson's son or nephew?
