Best all-time wrestler

[CoachDelgado]

McTorry lost to Markese Nelson 5 times, including 3 times during his Junior season. Nelson is why McTorry is not a 3 time state champion. McTorry never beat Nelson in a high school, scholastic match (he did beat him once in freestyle).

 

The best would have to be Phillip Simpson. 4 timer, 3 time NCAA all-american. Set numerous records while at Army.

Can't leave out Waylon Lowe. Tennessee State Champ and 3X NCAA Div. II Champion.

How does C. Heard of UTC compare?

How do you think college wrestlers are better than professionals. I don't get it!

Charlie Heard wrestled for Troup in Lagrange Ga but finished 2nd in Div I and was

1980 alternate on freestyle team. Great Wrestler! Best ever at UTC!!

I would certainly say that Phillip Simpson ranks over him, but I just wanted to give mention to Matt Keller. He was an amazing wrestler and 4x Div. I state champion and he made a great showing at Senior Nationals. He definitely ranks up there with the best, but I still say Phillip takes it with his accomplishments both here in TN and in college at the NCAA tournaments.

Adriean Norfleet at 119 from Whites Creek was just a monster in the 80's. He was a takedown specialist!!!! Only a 3x State Champ but people who remember him would find it hard to disagree.

Norfleet was awesome and could have done very well college. He was actually one of Mc Hammers dancers in the early 90's

You cant be serious. Surely you are posting a message just to get us riled up.

Martin Francis - the only legitimate 4X state champion. He didn't get to hide behind the TSSAA when it came to picking who he wrestled.

Who ever beat Phillip in HS? I would have to agree that he has made the most noise for TN Nationally over the past 30 years.

I remember when he qualified for state as a 86 lb eighth grader.
