Bartlett over Northwest Arlington over Clarksville

Region 8 Results 1- Bartlett 2- Arlington 3- Houston 4- Collierville

Having a football coach on your wrestling staff is a tremendous asset. I would say Oakland is a great example of that. I haven't researched this, but off the top of my head I believe they've had full teams (or close to it) in the recent past.

In Greco, I saw where Tommy Brackett got the 3 seed at his weight. I believe Boykin is the 2.

There is a new high school opening in Shelby County, too. Sounds like a similar situation. The article says they'll have a "wrestling arena." I don't think they've hired a coach yet. https://dailymemphian.com/article/18810/lakeland-tn-high-school-construction-on-track

Again, not saying it's right, just citing the rationale that makes the most sense as to why the most successful coaches don't win it every year. Specifically on my side of the state, I think Arlington has won 8 consecutive region titles and Coach Simpson has won coach of the year maybe 3 or 4 times in that run.

This is probably the case in a lot of regions. If the coach whose team won the region or finished the highest at the duals was given the award every year, then the same coaches would always win it. Not saying that's right, but it is the reality of the situation. The other coaches in each region probably want to share the love.

Nice job on these! From a West TN guy, I don't think Cavanaugh is with Munford anymore. He didn't wrestle in the post-season last year, and I haven't seen him in their lineup in a while. Moktani is also listed twice at 132. His name is Wemawamungu Moktani, but everyone calls him Mo Moktani from what I've heard. I'd also keep an eye on Christian Perez at 145. The Blackhorse at Houston this weekend will give everyone a better idea of where these guys (and others) stand.

I'd definitely like to watch some of these match-up's. Will there be a stream available?

I don't know about them as a team, but Munford (formerly Region 8) dropping will shake things up as well. "Mo" Moktani is going to be a senior next year and he is coming off a very impressive state tournament at 126 lb. Keep an eye on Christian Perez (138) and Jermyah Davis (182) as well. They didn't medal this year, but they're tough kids who I think will have a shot next season. **Davis wrestled 195 at state, but he was a 182 who bumped up because Zuckerman and Lankford were the favorites to advance**

https://fb.watch/3XtFtohHmZ/ Here’s TrackWrestling interviewing him about it.

To clarify, it is Dylan Cockman from Arlington at 160 lbs. His brother Dalton now wrestles up at Simpson College I believe. Nice job on the rankings this year! Couldn't have been easy putting them together with Covid and so much uncertainty clouding this season. We all appreciate your time and effort.
