Surprises or Upsets

Is that supposed to be sarcasm or a shot at all the wrestlers, coaches, fans and administrators involved with Fairview, Whitwell and the entire "small school" community. Maybe they care as much as you and the mighty, high powered Tennessee "big school" community does about their business.

I can just hear some wrestling fan in IA, PA, OH, NJ, CA, etc. community asking "wow did you see that upset at the TN state tourney"? and some arrogant jerk says "who cares, that's TN".

It was a stupid statement, don’t let people upset you like that. I think that on an individual basis small schools could compete with large schools I just don’t think combining for duals would be fair due to the resources that large schools have as well as allowance for travel, etc that give them an advantage. And by stupid statement I mean it’s a small school who cares.

Bradley was a little bit of a surprise to me this weekend. With how they finished state a couple weeks ago and how they did at regional individual I thought they were peaking at the right time.

Yep a rebuilding year they say. We also return 7 out the 10 medalist and all 4 that are in the finals 

Rebuilding this year and we will be better next year with some of the talented kids coming out of the middle school along with our depth at some weights that are returning. The weight classes will take care of themselves.

For sure. This could be the same for a lot of Tennessee wrestling if we grow this sport and keep growing our feeders. Once this occurs, and our duals, regionals and state tourneys are at a higher level we can even compete at a higher level on the national stage

Laxton pins Calvin and takes 3rd at 113.  Cleveland really flexing its muscles in the light weights. 106 thru 126 will all be top 3 (3 will be 1 or 2) and all 4 are back next year.
