marathon Posted July 20, 2013 Report Share Posted July 20, 2013 Who wins King vs Chalfuox and could they compete for the 106 spot at Ryan? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BringBack119 Posted July 20, 2013 Report Share Posted July 20, 2013 I would bet on Chalifoux over King at this point. Things might change in the season however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StarRaider Posted July 20, 2013 Report Share Posted July 20, 2013 (edited) Congratulations to National FS Champ Mr. Oliver and to everyone at CBHS/WAVE. What a dominating performance over the past two days. ghouse - what is Elijah thinking of doing after high school? I imagine he has more than a few options!

PUMMELKING Posted July 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2013 Congrats to not only AA but NATIONAL CHAMPION job well done. Maybe G can tell, does this make TN first Champ in Jr Division? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YOUTHCOACH16 Posted July 20, 2013 Report Share Posted July 20, 2013 Congrats to Elijah and all the Wave and Cbhs wrestling community. A total of 5 all American awards, two finalist, a national champ, a double AA. Tennessee's best showing ever! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghouse Posted July 20, 2013 Report Share Posted July 20, 2013 StarRaider, I don't think Elijah is set on anything yet... he still has two years of high school left. I imagine his college stock will continue to climb now. Has to keep it in perspective, still lots of room to improve for him. PummelKing, The highest placer TN has ever had in JR's freestyle previously was a couple of 4th's (3 in the 70's and one by Kyle James in 03). That makes Elijah that first finalist and first champ. YouthCoach16, Based on records the most we have ever had in a year previously was 3 in 2000 (Jake Yost 8th Cadet Free & 7th Greco and Matt Keller 8th JR Free). We have had a couple of years with 2 ( 03 Nick Marable and Kyle James, 09 Blake Thomas and Cameron Croy, 10 Tate Robinson and Kaleb Baker). This set of 5 far eclipses any performance we have ever had. The TN community needs to use this as something to build on going forward. And to think we may have had a few more if we could have had a few other graduating seniors (ex. Kaleb Baker) attend like other states. Not to mention one possible placer sitting at home in Tate Robinson. At any rate, the real question for most of us is how do we build from this? We can't let this be a one-time occurrence and slip back into obscurity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
