Middle School State predictions

[LBJ6]

70 - Christian Isbell - Team Clarksville

75 - Cade Holloway - Higher Calling Wrestling Club

80 - Bryce Pond - Higher Calling Wrestling Club

85 - Brayden Palmer - Buccaneers Wrestling

90 - Caleb Chopane - East Ridge Wrestling Club

95 - Job Dooley - Cooperhead Youth Wrestling

100 - Alexei Pergande - Nashville Catholic Wrestling

105 - Austin Sweeney - Higher Calling Wrestling Club

110 - Mason Reiniche - Red Raiders

115 - Austin Atchley - Red Raiders

120 - Bryce Wittman - Wave Wrestling Club

125 - Trevor Rippy - Buccaneers Wrestling

130 - Christian Salter - Siegel Wrestling Club

140 - Nyzaya Vincent - Higher Calling Wrestling Club

150 - Hunter Woods - Halls Wrestling

160 - Kyle Smith - Blue Devil Wrestling

180 - Grant Brace - Mt Juliet Bear Wrestling

250 - Grayson Walthall - Wave Wrestling Club

 

As I said, my predictions would change once I see what weight everyone went for their region. According to Sutherland, Mason Reiniche will be able to wrestle, but I am not sure about their other wrestlers.  At 115, I will take Landon Fowler of Eagleville Wrestling Club if Austin Atchley does not wrestle.  I think Higher Calling Wrestling Club will win the team championship.

 

Also, I have a question for anyone who may know.  Looking at the region champions' track profiles, I noticed a potential issue.  River Henry of McCallie Wrestling Club won the Region 3 250 weight class.  The issue I am seeing is that it shows him wrestling for the high school this season.  Has this been looked into yet?

I dont think there is a rule against this. From the Team Tenn AAU handbook:

 

MIDDLE SCHOOL: Birth Years 1999, 2000, and 2001 (No 9th Graders)

 

It does not say anything about no HS wrestlers, just no 9th graders.

River is an 8th grader.

Nice deal for Henry!

 

Landon Fowler has a big future ahead!

[LBJ6]

That's good to hear about River Henry. He hasn't competed in any TNAAU tournaments, so it's hard to know how he will stack up against the other top 250s. I would not be surprised if he wins state after seeing he won the Dixie Nationals this year.

Congratulations to these Middle School Champions!

Awesome job by all these young men !

Cleveland's Higher Calling was also the middle school team Champion

[LBJ6]

Congrats to all these wrestlers. They put in a lot of work to get to the top of the podium today. Congrats to Mason Reiniche for being named the Middle School Outstanding Wrestler, and Trevor Rippy for winning the Middle School Top 100 Belt.

Way to go Isbell, Palmer, Dooley, Rippy, & Salter representing mid tn wrestling well. Good to see some familiar names from west TN. East TN continues to build their pipeline! Chatt/cleve area no surprise.

[Sommers]

Mason Reiniche could end up being one of Baylor's most accomplished wrestlers in recent times.

[tnlonghorn]

How are the duals going in both age groups?

Mason Reiniche could end up being one of Baylor's most accomplished wrestlers in recent times.

It'll be pretty tough to beat Zach Watson winning 5x. Seems recent enough
