So I assume that all of the the kids are coming out of the Chatt or Knoxville area since Nashville and Memphis could not field teams for this weekends tournament?

It must have been a misprint. It was the 130, but Johnson and Fuller should have been the names.

I agree as does most of the state. I am lucky, one of my son was pulled back in and the other was not. We do not start the tournament until 4 on the first day. Why don't we start it at noon and give 4 more hours of wrestling on that day. That would make it to simple I guess. You have to many quality wrestlers who don't make it to the consolations because they are not "pulled back in". The list this year is big, just like years prior. There is to much that is worked for throughout their years and careers to not give everyone that opportunity. I know, the best find their way to the podium, but the downside to that is the best 6 find their way to meet eachother in the first 3 rounds alot of the time. Which leaves some sitting out. We can argue both sides of this coin, but the truth is this is the most important tournament of the year, give the kids a chance to wrestle. Just my opinion. Keith Myers

Congratulations to Science Hill for defeating William Blount. It is nice to see two region 1 teams make it again this year. Best of luck in Clarksville.

Thanks KDX, my email is myers20@adelphia.net. It is very tempermental, sometimes it does not let me get my mail. You can also reach me at 423-638-5505. I appreciate your response.

I am hoping that someone might be able to help me. My son is wanting to go to the Junior Nationals, but I am unable to get off work during that week. I am looking for someone who might be taking a group of kids up that would have room for 1 more. Of course I would help with gas and pay all of his expenses. We live in Greeneville, but I would be able to meet someone at a convinient location for them. If anybody can help, please let me know. Thanks in advance. Keith Myers

If I am not mistaken Soddy beat Greeneville 37-31. Something close to that.

Congratulations Greeneville on making it to the state duals. You all wrestled very well tonight. Good luck to both Science Hill and Greeneville in Clarksville. I know both teams will represent region 1 well. Greeneville 61 William Blount 12

Will anyone have the seeds prior to the tournament that they can post? This will be a very competitive tournament and look forward to it.

How did the Science Hill - DB match go tonight. Anybody have individual results?

Robbins bumped up to wrestle Eddie at 189. He beat Eddie 5-1.

The way I underdstand it is that Woodford had the date wrong. They originally thought it was the 7th, and they had a dual tournament scheduled for the 14th. They were unable to change their tournament and had to drop out. Science Hill had their annual tournament on the 14th also. Hopefully, both teams will be back next year, both teams bring great talent to the GIT.

He lost a very close decision to Hussein from Baylor, it was one that came down to the very end and could have gone either way. It was voted best match.

any results?
