J, Thanks for keeping these rankings. It's allowing me to keep up with the boys in Blue. CN

What happened to Stuart Cope from Centennial? He has been wrestling 119.

Centennial is not traveling to Oakland.

Josh, I noticed that your updated rankings at 171 are a bit off. At 171 Jeremy Jones has beaten Headley from Tullahoma twice. Jones by tech fall 17-1 Jones by pin at 4:39 (leading 8-0)

Which school is hosting the region 5 duals? Weigh-in time?

Stuart lost in the semis to Martin by a major decision. I can't recall the score against Bogdan, but I think STuart won by 4 or 5 points.

103: Championship - Maplewood d. Larue, Ky 103: Consolation Final - Cope (Cent.) d. Bogdan (Hville)

Coach Gonyea, You're correct. We simply forgot to seed Sirsing. We'll fix that. Also, the seedings that Coach Peck posted were correct as of the seeding meeting - however, they have changed at almost every weight since we received rosters from schools not in attendance. Be advised . . . we won't be wasting alot of time changing things on Saturday morning. All coaches should be prepared to accept the seeding judgement of those coaches who attended the meeting. My computer is on the fritz. If any coach needs to contact me prior to Sat. you can reach me at 615-268-0029. Chad Nikazy Centennial Wrestling

Coach, Are you planning on practicing at Centennial on Friday evening? Centennial and Ravenwood will be practicing at 5:00 and Cordova and Memphis Westside will practice at 7:00 pm. You're welcome to mat space at either time if you need it. Chad Nikazy

Either one is fine with me.

I was just informed that Caldwell, Ky will be wrestling on both Thursday and Friday. Therefore, the kids will get 2lbs on Saturday. This should mean that we won't have trouble with kids not making weight. For those coaches who are attending the Cougar Classic next weekend, please remember that we'll be having the seeding meeting on Wednesday night at 6:00. If you can't make it fax your roster along with records and seeding information to Centennial. You can also email them to me at chadnikazy@triathlete.com. We'll preseed the tournament and there will be NO CHANGES on Saturday morning. If a wrestler doesn't make weight his match will become a forfeit - no exceptions. We will not reseed a weight class unless a 1st or 2nd seed doesn't make weight. This policy will allow us get things going in the morning and will ensure that we're all home to our families (or the Titans game) at a decent hour Saturday night. If you don't attend the meeting you'll have accept the seeding judgement of those coaches who are in attendance. Criteria: 1. head to head 2. State placers 3. state qualifiers 4. season record 5. tournament placings Chad Nikazy Head Coach Centennial Wrestling

Coach Peck, I'm going with: 103: Sammy Radar, Jay Wolf 112: Chad Nikazy, David Levitt, Jude Williams, 119: Josh Peck, Will Gilbert, Glenn Gaston 125: Mike Spencer, James Vance Etc, . . . Wait, you mean this isn't the early 90's? Just picking at you bud! I realize you were kidding. Coach Nikazy
