Chances this current snow affects anything?

Region 7 has 2 ranked matchups for finals matches:

3. Finch vs 4. Ables at 145

2. Feldhacker vs 3. Suddeth at 195

Bonus match for Knight vs Oxford at 170 since Oxford was prev ranked and Knight has recently cut down but is ranked at 82.

Based off my experience when I was wrestling. My region had a coaches meeting the night before the tourney where they determined seeding. Typically they went off of 1. State placing last year. 2. Placing in regions last year. 3. Record/win count. And obviously head to head wins were the deciding factor between similar wrestlers. Hope this helps you. 

Lol wtf type of sad #### grown man would get on here to bash a college freshman. Bruh. 

As a recent former wrestler i can say there is no excuse for what the cleveland kid did. Especially the last match of your senior year thats the worst way to injure your legacy. Same goes for cockman. If someone lashes out cause their losing you have to just move on and get off the mat. I feel bad both of them ended their year that way. Hopefully their teammates can learn from this. 

Its just fisaks teammates im guessing. Hes a freshmen and its probably just his freshmen buddies havin some fun. I found it all pretty funny.

A great recap. Then magically another thread was transformed into a "transfer" discussion. The horse is dead, please stop beating 

I agree with this. Every time anything from d2 is mentioned the thead gets hijacked by transfer arguments. Which im sick of reading especially when im looking for good recaps on things i may have missed last night. The 170 d2 match is also over. The kids dont need to be analyzed and the only lesson that should be taken is that when grown adults lose their class over a high school sport, then it falls apart for the kids too. Thats my input on the last 3 pages of thread. Thx to the guy who made the recap on all the finals matches earlier I enjoyed your summary.

TSSAA really could not care less about their consumers.

Cockman is no longer in the tourney after getting a crap 2nd unsportsmanlike in a match! Which def shouldn’t have been called at all! So he will finish with a 6th place finish 

What happened that they gave him an unsportsmanlike?

Heres what im going with. I would also say if there is a dark horse here its McCrary. He dominated 152 at his regions.

1. Sweeney 

2. Brown

3. Ferguson

4. Herron

5. Harter

6. McCrary 

I was gonna make my own predictions on this weight but it looks like I entirely agree with bump on this one

Heres my picks. Super tough bracket.

1. Cannon

2. Clemmons

3. Witt

4. Haney

5. Mckeffery

6. Rogers

Thanks Nate, eyes wide open now

I think he was on your side partner

Brackets are up on track by the way. Let the fun begin!

I agree I think 138 has some good kids in there so some good wrestlers won't make it to state, however I don't see any of the scoring more than maybe an escape point against Franklin

Oh for sure Dooley wins big I just meant there were gonna be other good matches between the other kids.

This is about impossible to predict right now with how many weight changes are happening as we speak. After regionals itll clear up.

I think a lot of this year's region will be more set in stone than last. I forget which team it was whether it was in region or not, but I think Coffee had a close match at the Indy tournament. I think 38 and 45 are easy locks for the expected, and if Jacob Knight goes 195 he will beat Franklin.

Coffee had a close match against a kid from Nolensville at Indy. Sadly that kids is A/AA so we won't be seeing that again. Coffee has pinned about every other kid in the state in the first period including those who are ranked. I will also say a lot of this tourney will have some snoozefest weight classes as the one stud kicks everyone around, but I know some weight classes have 4 or 5 good wrestlers in them like 138 or 120 so look for excitement there in the placement matches.

Is it me, or are there more penalties being assessed in this tournament? I'm not there for this one, but I'm noticing a trend. Can anyone elaborate how Science Hill got the penalty point against Bradley?

Im curious about this as well. As someone who is unable to attend, are these matches just that heated or are the refs being real trigger happy with unsportsmanlikes. I remember this was a big complaint last year.

No, it should be surprising. As they were continually boasted as a top 8 team in the state. Especially by cbg, THE STILLWATER COWBOYS STEED. Please, like anyone on this forum thought Indy was going to beat them. All year it's been BRENTWOOD>SUMMIT>CENT>INDY by 

I've never been huge on the team rankings cause they are too hard to accurately predict. I always saw Brentwood and Centennial on even playing field so I expected competition for sure. Indy surprised me for sure, but they have had a well run program last few years so its not terribly shocking.

I am doing just fine.  Will have to admit that I am a little surprised that the Bruins were not stronger this year.  What really shocked me was that a very average (by their standards) Purple Irish team thumped the STILLWATER COWBOY early in the season and the match could easily have been even more lopsided.  

While Smith is still a good coach, the Bruins just didn't have the same talent level as last year. Not surprising to see them miss state in such a tough region.

Centennial is looking like a strong all around team. I predict they easily win the region and have a strong chance of finding success in the state duels similar to that of Brentwood last year. 

I can feel the argument about to go down already

I'm the bigger Bump
