119-6th

125-8th

130-7th

152-1st

189-7th

 

2 of of our Grapplers should have placed higher but made some last second mistakes that cost them the match for higher spots. Our young 189lb was leading by 7 and made a mistake against BA toward the end of the 3rd and lost by a pin. Our 119 was leading by 2 with 5 scds on the clock and ended up losing by 2.

Over all I think our young team did well with the Senior, Sergio P coming home with the gold.

Congrats to Sergio!! I suppose Wright didn't drop after all or decided to stay up with Felix dropping now. And props to Turner too @ 130 in such a tough tournament... Makes the Rigger a proud Master Blaster!! Spencer is happy I'm sure with his boy at 125 a well.

 

I am amazed at a freshman coming off crutches to place at such a high weight like 189 too. Wonder how Croy did?

125 Drake gave the Franklin kid a great match.

If we could get the 125 and 130 to push each other they could make some noise at region. However, as designated "goof balls" they do make most of the team laugh. :thumb:

BTW-tnko, I thought Sergio looked like a small 152 at Father Ryan, Not sure what his weight is now but he looked small against all 3 152s he faced.

Som's Croy had a strong tournament he finished second not sure to who though . Rigger did you notice that everyone looked small against the Houston guys .They were a strong looking group of young men Greenback had some big guys also.

Yeah, I thought that but it's been that way for years. When my oldest son faced Borneman from Houston in 2003 he was built. I don't know what they do but those kids are ripped.

All the Ensworth young men were built solid.

 

BTW-tell the Overton 130 that our 130 said he was the toughest kid he beat at FR Tourney.

Springfield took another blow to the team with their 145 Cobb going down for the season. All of his wrestling career he has been limber and like a stretch arm strong kinda person. Well he has had problems with his shoulders and they finally gave out and he has to have double sugery on them so he is out for the rest of the season.

 

Springfield look good early but after losing their 189 and 145 and i beleive another they arent as good and we will see this Thurday at H'ville, I know H'ville has a full line-up and S'field lacks a spot or two and also very young wrestlers in the 189. Springfield may be lacking rest of the season and could slip to 3 or 4th in the final region rankings

That was a tough tournament. Congrats to both of the two freshman @ 189!

I wonder if they will meet up this year???? Croy's build may push him over the top! With two experienced wrestlers........ strength may prevail?

K. Jones took his first loss of the season the other night. He is like 29-1 now. I cant wait to see his toughest competion(IMO) this year at the H'ville tourney when he takes on Sergio(saying they match up in the brackets).

I would think that they would. Since Sergio is ranked and won the FR Tourney. These young men should meet in the finals.

Why didn't you match up your strenths on the other topic of Region 8 Championship. You need to help me out so I know which kids to watch.

 

Looks like 152 is even. How about the other weights?

Yea, sorry ive havent had alot of time to get on here. Springfield 103, 112, 140,152, HWT will be the ones to watch, the others might be surprises to me. But those weights are the best for Springfield.

    • Never in my life have I seen a team in a scrimmage against their own defense look so lost and confused. The defense didn’t look much better, the coaching staff can’t keep their anger together, not only with the players but also with their other coaches. I feel awful for those players. None of them look like they wanted or should’ve been out there, but for the grown men on the sidelines acting like fools, it's just embarrassing to the Farragut name and reputation. I now see why they chose not to live stream this on their YouTube channel.
    • We could sure use some math teachers country wide. Ever go into a store or restaurant and the bill comes to $9.97 and you give them a ten dollar bill and 2 pennies because you wanted a nickle back and then the meltdown starts and the next thing two more people have to come and help figure it out and the place comes to a complete halt. I see this everyday and it's a sad representation of all these schools allowing these kids out the door to get shortchanged the rest of their life. 
    • I like the Pirates chances. I’ll be there as soon as work allows.
    • Stars, I heard we were searching far and wide for some math teachers. Any chance their kids bench press or 40 times are getting checked? LOL I’ve heard good things from 825.  
    • I think it was expected. “Bad” luck I guess to get a couple difference maker QBs in the same class. I thought the decision was made a little early myself, but they were struggling offensively last year.  I assume the running quarterback alco had last year would be a senior this fall, and the transfer would start the following two years in addition to getting a ton of playing time this year. Maybe he waits two yrs, but I doubt it. The kid is good. So is the one who stayed.
