Haha region 8 def doesn’t place 6.

Any predictions for region 8?

Trust me I’ve been waiting a very long time for D1 state Champs vs D2 state champs in a dual! Ive always said D2 has the better wrestlers and proves when they go to the next level here in the last 15 years or so. Yes D2 kids have a great opportunity to go to Prep Nationals and face the toughest kids in the country. Overall I don’t care who wins what.. kids go to certain schools cause they want to win championships hopefully as a individual but also as a team and be pushed in the wrestling room. Same thing as college football players and basketball players going to certain colleges known for there programs! Also why Penn State still dominating college wrestling!

Curious who they had that was from D1 and a state champ that transferred to cbhs?

Actually I’m not a fan or affiliated with anybody in Memphis wrestling! Just a old high school wrestler.

Ha well when you can go and get last year D1 state champs and add them to your line up of course it makes it easier for you to win!

Thanks! You can watch it if you following Arlington on Twitter

Congrats for the Tn teams For their placers. However Prep Slam is def not the same as when it first started when 1 memphis team was the first team to start going then few other Tn D2 team still started and at one point seemed like mostly all D2 schools were going. But not even other top teams across the country no longer attend this tourney. Not sure who or how it could be a top 10 tourney now.

Will there be anywhere to keep up with these matches?

Yes on flo there is and maybe able to google it

Congrats mr west on Ethan dominating performance so far I know your proud

As an official the last thing anybody wants to do is tell someone they can't wrestle but it's the job to keep everyone safe even with a doctor note...I know several dr that aren't really familiar with stuff that wrestlers get cause I've had to go to several and educate them on some of the things... Hate to see it happen to him

Heck give everyone a ribbon for participating then

As someone who wrestled in the d2 I'm glad to see the bracket get smaller down to 8 however they need to only medal to 4 yes this is taking away 2 kids from getting a medal but just doesn't make sense why we would place 6 with only 8 wrestlers...

Who?

Egypt is still open and they have a team but it seems like it's every other year which is crazy and Memphis catholic still open but no program and is basically a charter/city school now not what it used to be

How is it that we host the state tourney at the Lipscomb school? Just curious I'm from Memphis and I just spent all day Sunday at the Memphis city championship and wonder what it would take to move the state tourney to the amazing venue the Fedex Forum???

I understand your argument but that's also saying a kid who is injured all year and then finally gets to wrestle before the state tourney isn't fair either to the other wrestler.. I had to sit out my entire junior year cause of the dang transfer rules and the only thing I was able to wrestle was the State individual tourney..try telling your teammate thanks but we are wrestling off now so I can go to state now that I'm cleared isn't the easiest thing in the world...

I wonder how many other states screw up brackets like tn

Prob because they knew that they only had a very short time to get it done or it would affect him..it's still amazing how a kid with this talent isn't at a bigger school

Yes and the school is officially closed now

How do you know that about Alcoa bringing him back

Does Cleveland Soddy or Bradley travel to any big tournaments? Only asking cause I don't know. Seems like they are always competing in Tn tourneys I only know of 1 west tn team that travels out of town and that's Houston and they go to the same Louisiana tourney every year

What's website I know Sammy decided to come back and join Tn lol
