Bump, I usually agree with most of your posts and comments BUT Uhorchuk #4? I know your top 3 are all very even and it depends on the day as to who would win.  Braman and Uhorchuk have a common opponent in Gavin Nix from GA. Guess who beat Nix?  Im just saying that Uhorchuk might wrestle in the A/AA classification but that doesn't mean he cant run with the "big dawgs" from AAA or DII and if you're asking me, I think he LEADS THE PACK!

Imagine this bracket being the TSSAA State Tournament like it was before so many cry baby adults became involved and wanted a participation trophy for "LITTLE JOHNNY"

May I also add that in the state tournament if you took a loss your opponent had to advance to the finals to pull you back into the tournament.  Just one of the many reasons it was so special and meaningful for kids to just qualify to compete in the state tournament not to mention being called a state champion.  

I would love to see all individual sports (Track & Field, Swimming, Golf, Tennis, Wrestling, etc...) only crown one state champion.

I agree on Uhorchuk. The kid is a stud. With the absence of Trey Bates, he’s my top seed.  If Trey is there, then I would go with him over Uhorchuk.

This might be the most well rounded and closest weight in the state. Daniel very much should be up close to the top, but really all of them are so close that anyone could win it all.

 

Jacob Haney pinned Jackson Bradford, Eason beat Bradford 9-8,  but Jackson also beat Gavin Nix 8-4  while Daniel U beat Hix only 5-2, but Daniel did beat Samuel Shires 10-2, while Bradford beat Shires 6-2

Borders lost to Bradford 11-8 and 7-5 while also losing to Trey Bates 6-4 and 5-2
Eason beaten by Holloway by pin and 8-2 by Braman while also Eason beat Braman early in year 8-5

Braman won the title in OT over Holloway the only loss for Holloway who beat Braman last week  5-4.
Braman just got better throughout the year(which you hope all do) started by getting beat by Bates 12-5, Eason 8-5, Griffin jarrett and Gavin Nix who both Daniel U and Bradford beat.  This weight is a complete toss up on who wins it all!

just a little correction, but still needs to be made, your opponent had to make it to the semi's for you to be carried on, i know that since it happened to me lol, but the rest i agree on.

They changed it from your opponent had to reach the finals to your opponent had to reach the semi-finals.  I probably have a few more gray hairs than you so I remember back to the very early 70's.

I 100% agree. Those top 5 or 6 are a complete toss up. I only went this way because I think the top 3 have more quality wins than Daniel. I originally had Daniel 1st but couldn’t find wins that matched those of the 3 D2 guys. Other than Nix. But it sounds like you are not alone and this is what I posted the seeds for! So I can make changes if needed. Thank you for your input!

Thank you for posting this. These are all the reasons why this one was so hard to seed. They are all so good and so close to each other.

Top 6 kids could go in any order. Not a clear cut front runner at this weight because 5 out of 6 have won State titles. Uhorchuk should probably be Top 3 though. Eason probably to high.

Braman, Holloway, Bradford, Uhorchuk, and Borders are all about even.  Right now, Uhrochuck is the strongest of the 5 and he would be the favorite to win and most likely would win this bracket but it would not be a surprise if he got upset and anyone of the other 4 won.  

Shires, Eason, Poole and Morrell would be the next 4 but I don’t think any of them have the horse powers to beat the top 5 right now.
