Just got word Zach won his match to medal in the toughest weight in the tournament.

The two wins were at the CWC Preseason tournament ar soddy two weeks ago. Though Mosley looked very sharp and tough, it was a pre season tournament with shortened periods.

Watson vs Tate should be interesting, with Zach's flexibility and "Oki State style" and Tate's ability to control ties and "Iowa style". Both are STUDS, maybe the best two kids on the state regardless of age. Possible meetings at Cleveland Duals, Fandetti, or State. Though I feel Tate is deserving of his ranking for his performance at Fargo, I have to go with Watson by 5-6 points. It will come down to a take down battle and Zach is very slick. Match of the year for me. Dont hate me Garret. Bosken Higher Calling

Garrett, The tournament was ran great and had tough competition. We went down there for 2 goals, one too get some tough pre season competition and secondly to qualify those who wished to go to Super 32. Once we had our guys qualified, we chose to hit the road.

Tate has one more match against a tough Oregon kid, if he wins he is in the finals.

Tate is now 7-0, he just beat the undefeated kid from IL. If I am not mistaking he is guaranteed no worse than 6th place. Tough weight class, very impressive.

Texas, all they stated was that the wrestlers who competed on these teams made drastic improvements. Your correct it is one sided, but from the information Derek has gave us either it had a huge impact or just a re-occuring coincidence. From my experience, it has changed Cleveland wrestling. Great job to Derek and Al. Josh Bosken Higher Calling Wrestling Club

Thats a shame. Thanks for the help Garrett.

I have a kid moving to Savannah, TN. Are there any clubs that he could join near that area? Thanks, Josh Bosken HCWC

The registration link on the flier which is on TNYouthwrestling.com is not correct right now. It will be fixed by tonight. Registration will be done through unapproved website if you wish to sign up now. This tournament is not only for beginners but and wrestler is not a Top 100 competitor.

I am going to throw out a bracket buster just for fun. Nelson Pinkstaff- Beardan171. I totally over looked him, if he is on he could place very high. Bosken

You are correct. Unfortunately I go off the most previous results. I know Rakim is extremely talented and a tough kid, he will have a chance to jump back in the rankings first round at the State Duals. Yours in Wrestling, Josh BOsken

I beleive Turbo is staying at 152, and if he is he is 1-0 against Colbaugh. Turbo got 3rd at 145 and Bradley won at 152.
