Top Ten DI Teams?

[NardDog]

From my experience around the Baylor wrestling program, I can say that Red Bank High School may sneak into the top 10. Keep in mind that it only takes a handful of good performances at state for a team become top 10. As far as duals go I don't think they'll be anywhere close to top 10, but in tournament situations I'd say definitely; at least by the end of the year.

[WrestlingGod]

Yeah it'll still be a tight race in Williamson County. Ravenwood still has to be the favorite with Freeman returning but word is he's jumped two weights. Franklin will be tough too with both the Bennetts and a good Sophomore 195 pounder. Brentwood will be a good all around with Hamilton returning. Now for my Indy (yep there's another Little at Indy), even after losing a two timer (Newberg) a placer (lil WG) and a dern good hwt (Rockholt) they returned 6 or 7 qualifiers and will still be a top 10 team...

 

45 or 52 from region 6 could be THE most loaded weight in the state with Hamilton (Brentwood) Freeman (Ravenwood) Bennett (Franklin) Wilson (Indy) and Love (MLK) in the same weight. Every one of them are capable of placing very high in the state this year and a couple of them have to be in the running to take it all.

WrestleGod,

 

Not doubting you but only reason I didn't have Indy in top ten is because I only counted three returning qualifiers. I believe you will have a tough 195 that will be a senior who got sick before state last year, but even with him I don't count more than four. Help me out.

106- Pelky

120- Allen

126- Overton (think he missed state last year but has qualified before last year)

145- Wilson

160- Scara

195- Venuti missed qualifying last year but was ranked in the top 5 all year was up 13 when got caught and pinned by the Antioch 95 who made the semis.

 

So that's 5 returning qualifiers with 1 who didn't but was capable of placing.

[JBoskenUSAW]

Ok it has Scara as a senior and I didn't see Wilson qualifying at 145

[WrestlingGod]

And they had a good 132 who broke his ribs at state duals and didn't compete at regionals...

 

They probably won't be as good as the 09 team but they'll be very balanced and deep all the way through the lineup, I'd have them at 7 probably

When did Wilson qualify?

[WrestlingGod]

Good call Boss, after further research you're correct per usual. He didn't qualify, he could be in the mix to place this year.

[JBoskenUSAW]

Yea i remember him and was suprised he didnt. I dont doubt Grindstaff will have a crew ready.

[werazzlin]

Good call Boss, after further research you're correct per usual. He didn't qualify, he could be in the mix to place this year.

I told yall Indy would be tough again this year.

Just because I know the kids, I think a lot of you are sleeping on Walker Valley. WV actually has 7 state qualifiers and a State Placer, one of the seven didnt qualify last year but did the year before.This should be the best team they have had. Wilson Central could be the #3 team this year
