Dixie Challenge in March

I know that the Dixie Challenge has an open division in March

you have never heard of sycamore?

are you serious?

yes sycamore will be attending this year

Jon Hill of Frk.Last year finished 33rd with 25 points. This year 4th with 113.5 points. That is a dramatic increase in stature.

My vote is for Jon Hill. He has made great ground over the last 2 years. This year he beat teams like Clarksville, Science Hill, East Ridge, Overton, and Brentwood placing 4th with 133.5 points. Compare this to last years place of 33rd with only 25 points. This is a huge increase in stature and I believe he deserves that honor. Heck of a job Jon.

I am curious what the rest of the state thinks about freestyle and greco-roman. Does it help? How much? What percentage of kids that placed in state wrestle these other styles? Please consider the Folkstyle Nationals and the amount of recruiting done there.

I personally think Jon Hill at Franklin. Beating out some top teams like Clarksville, Science Hill, Overton, East Ridge and Brentwood. Compare this to their finish last year coming in at 33rd place with 25 points versus this year at 4th with 113.5 points. This is a dramatic increase. " Very impressive Jon, very proud of you and your accomplishments."

fatty4life are you who I think you are? The same young man I have seen Dec 27 for the last 3 years?

I believe there are 2 problems here as I have personally encountered both. First is the unwillingness of coaches to learn freestyle and Greco-Roman in various parts of the state. Second, there seems to be too many chiefs and not enough indians. I literally have had coaches tell me that they were Bronze certified and that I could not teach their wrestlers anything. Something usually drastic needs to happen in order to break the ice.

Let's hear from some SYCAMORE fans because Sycamore has serious shot at state in 2003. Or do they? comments...

Oh yeah, and Greenbrier better watch out,just because you killed us this year it won't happen again.

Why isn't anyone talkin about sycamore? They had a winning season it's first 2 years its opened i think sycamore will be tough to beat with a strong line and some junior talent coming they will be a great team.
