Tj Hicks is our first ever medalist as he is in the semis. He took out the 2nd and 7th seeds on his journey.

Knox Fuller made the quarters and lost. He is in the blood round.

Sammy Evans is in the blood round. He was the fourth seed and got upset first round and is running back through the consolations.

Eli King went 1-2.

Congrat's to all who went to Flo and best of luck to those still fighting. 

 

Great job of representing Tennessee.

Heard from Bradley folks Eli King registered at 137 and decided not to lose weight for Flo and wrestled at 150 and extremely out of shape. Is Father Ryam not wrestling right now? No one can compete at a high level doing that

He is out of shape. Beating Ed Ruth's little brother 7-2 with a 1:10 left in match. He should have been up 10-2 after having Ruth on his back for 5 seconds with no points. Ran out of gas, and let Ruth tie it up. Lost in overtime. Had nothing left in the tank the next match. You are right. You can't wrestle in top national events unprepared. Probably would have placed if in shape. He knows better now. Not Father Ryan's fault.

Most people learn more from their failures than they ever do from their successes.  Eli King will be just fine.  If he decides to make another run at Fargo he just needs a hard six weeks of training and he should AA again.

Hicks will be wrestling Carson Manville a 7th grader for 3rd place.  Is this the younger brother of Mason Manville?

Mason brother if he continues to dominate through high school will be a Penn State wrestler like his brother will be

Great job by all of those who competed in this great tournament. You should all be proud of representing Tennessee like you did. This type of competition will do you well in the future.

 

Best of luck and congratulations again.
