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.

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

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?

    • Way late on this post, but I do believe that I want to at least weight in so to speak lol. I wrestled NAIA competed against some of the best wrestler over all a crossed the divisions and felt great about my college wrestling experience. I think people make the mistake in believe that wrestling some how gets easier as a sport at the smaller college divisions it doesn't the training is mostly the same. I have that on good authority from a coach who was a D1 all-American. it's more the commitment level of the competitors that is different. There is talented wrestlers that can go D1 at any level in the smaller division. sub in Sammy Shires for one he would have done fine on a DI team. He chose a work life ratio that suited him. It's not about talent it's commitment are you going to make training and studying the sport the center of your world cause that's what it takes: NO MATTER HOW TALATENTED BEFORE HAND YOU ARE.  If so then D1 is for you and striving for success at that level is for you like Mr. Palmer said it's what your willing to put in. Now coaches if you have a successful wrestler who fits that bill then by all means D1 is a great option they will see some success no matter how small, but if they are not that committed along with being talented and a killer and you know it then your doing them wrong.  You don't have to tell athletes that you don't think they are D1 tell them to keep their options open to take all their visits to consider all the divisions regardless of their goals. college recruiting visits have you most times wrestle against their current wrestlers coaches and athletes  will find out real quick it's not easy no matter where you go. That way when they make their decision it's a sound one that's based on well rounded experiences.     BobCorker, and oceansize42 I believe what you are thinking is correct but for different reasons. TN wrestler's have the talent... it's a commitment level change. TN wrestlers aren't used to having to put themselves through the level of commitment required and kills them on the D1 level.    WrestlingGod, I agree you should push kids to pursue their dreams, but not at the cost of common sense period... we have to much of that going around this country already. Dreams can turn to poison when these wrestler are not educated on what it truly takes. In TN  a kid who understands wrestling to a high level can be successful with small amounts of hard work. They think their definition of hard work is enough for D1 that is the mistake not the "talent/understanding".  Over-all though we do not celebrate NAIA,D2,D3, or Juco success in this state like other states do. GA/AL celebrates all it's college wrestlers success a crossed the  board no matter the division. Why? because it's hard... I have gone to all the divisions National championships let me tell you to be a all-American at any is impressive especially D2 or NAIA. those guys can scrap and not one of those AA's are an easy match. all of them were state placers or champs multiple times in their high school careers. does that at all sound easy to place at? TN does not give those guys enough credit or shout outs period. it's an over sight because of this D1 or it's less than meaningless   mentality on this site and in this state. GA/AL is better then us on the highest stage because they send guys to D2,NAIA,D3 ect. they come back understanding the sport better then their pervious coaches, and give back and that cycles to athletes readiness to go D1 with clearer understanding of what it takes to be competitive day 1 freshman year.             My post isn't to support one way or the other but to just consider that both sides have merit and that both work when the system in TN. by system I mean coaches are the better educated on preparing athletes for each level they want and should pursue.        
    • If you think McKenzie could've beat Riverside I have a bridge you might like to buy. 
    • Hate to hear Ricky is heading to the old folk's home!
    • By recruiting, I mean members of a coaching staff are talking to, meeting with, giving tours, to students, and their guardians, that are not zoned for their school.    there’s no way that many non Bearden kids just showed up all at once without being recruited. It can’t be a coincidence that all those kids also went through the middle school all star game your boss puts on every year. 
    • Not sure how I would put it as recruiting perhaps kids trying to better their career by going to a head coach and coaching staff with connections all over college football that gets them the opportunity to go play college football and be coached by a coach with a pretty good track record.
