In most athletic competitions, a one-point difference in the score means the match or game was very close.

 

Friday night in Chattanooga, Houston High School senior Brandon Wright beat Bradley Central’s Travis Creagan, 4-3, for the 160-pound Division I state title.

 

But, according to Wright, the match wasn’t really that close.

 

"I had control the whole match," Wright said about an hour after earning his second straight state title.

 

Last year Wright took first at 152. Creagan was the defending champion at 160.

 

"I gave him all the points he had when I let him up."

 

The showdown between Creagan and Wright was one that most observers saw coming. Wright had a close call (1-0 over Danny Tolbert of Red Bank) in the semifinals, but breezed through his other matches. Creagan had two pins and two majority decisions in his first four matches.

 

The two met earlier in the season in the Bradley County Invitational, a match Wright won, 6-4. Friday night Wright took an early lead and never relinquished it.

 

"It hasn’t really sunk in yet," Wright said. "But it feels really good because I’ve worked really hard and it’s something I wanted to achieve."

 

Coach Walt Holmes was not surprised that Wright, a four-time region champion, came home from Chattanooga for the second straight year with a state title.

 

"The biggest thing about him is he likes to win," said Holmes. "He will do whatever it takes."

QUOTE(fadingDUST @ Feb 21 2007 - 01:00 PM) 826382959[/snapback]I disagree with what Wright has said. I am happy for TJ Duncan and his celebration toward the snobby Baylor fans. They get what they deserve.

Was there something said that wasn't true? Brandon sought out the toughest competition all year. The record speaks for itself. Do not try to say any different!! The thing is, someone lost. In this case a good wrestler and I am sure, a fine young man. I can stir the pot with the best, but let's not diminish the accomplishments of either wrestler. Now then, "Little Ricky 1 inch", if you have something else to say.....

The thing that's not true is the "GC" at the end of the message.

      Camp season 2024

      By tennesseeannouncer · Posted

      Dyersburg is going to be good, really good. As mentioned, they have a lot of talent on the way and the trio of Chelby, Joya, and KayKay will only be better with a full season together under their belt. To me, playing in Murfreesboro two consecutive postseasons will only serve to make them more dangerous if/when they stand among the final eight teams this March. Experience, good or bad, always makes you better. And not only do they have experience, they know how to win there. Schedules are coming together for all of the teams and I am excited about what I am seeing on the preliminary drafts on Dyersburg’s schedule. I know I am being a tease, but it’s simply not my place to announce what another school is doing. With that said, I won’t go into specifics. However, I am excited about renewed home and away contracts for the non-district portion of the calendar. I think west Tennessee will have a lot of interest as well.

      They struggled to field a team last year. I don’t see them being much better?

      Couldn’t agree more.. Tate is a special kinda player , but fortunately for us we get a best of 3 series. I think our pitching is better than last year when we made the trip to west tn. Should be a fun 2 or 3 games.
