Thanks for sharing!

That is a great showing for the State of Tennessee!

Great work to all of the wrestlers, coaches, parents, etc...

Wish we could have seen Parker Peterson at 285 and how he would have done at National Preps!

It would have been interesting that is for sure.  Both Jake Kaminski and Cole Deery are ranked in the top 10 above Parker. I think Parker matches up extremely well against both of them and I personally think Parker would have won that bracket. 
 

TN was also missing Corday, Dendy, Taylor, Anthony, Ivy and Roller who would have all had an opportunity to make the finals if not win it too.

I agree with you that Parker Peterson would have had a great opportunity to win the tournament at 285lb.  At 6’6” and 250 he wrestles completely different than most of the big men.  I feel confident that with the TSSAA state tournament completed in February, Parker had long ago moved on to training for his football career at Tulane.  Let’s also remember that for whatever reason several of the top programs (Blair & Wyoming Seminary) did not send all of their number one guys this season.

The young men named would compete no matter who was there they’ve proven it in the past!

TN didn’t send all of our hammers either.  
 

All of the tournaments(Super32, Knockout, poweraid, NHSCA, Nat Prep) post pandemic outside of Cadet and Junior Nationals have not been to their normal standards as wrestlers aren’t traveling the way they were before.  Hopefully now that we are coming out of this things will get back to normal.  

National Prep ended up being tougher than I expected and some of the weights were legit.  132 was freakin loaded.

    • I don't know what's going on in the town of McMinnville, but I've read this and it's disturbing.  I'm a "player" person, and I want what's best for the player. If a player gets cut off the team because she said the "F word" then good grief. I mean, come on guys. I wish there was a way for the player to transfer to a different program and just play ball. There are a lot of athletes that are stuck because they're in crappy situations regarding their team/coach. This is player just happens to be one them.
    • Won't happen. College coaches will back the coach every time and it cost this young lady her senior season. Looks like the player may be right on this one. School let her  go after one season. This stuff happens more than you think. 
    • “No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team.” For language? I’m not seeing that as a dealbreaker. 
    • Why did the coach get rehired after she was let go as an assistant by the former Warren County coach and the current AD?? Is that accurate?? I am very familiar with situations like this. Suprised lawsuits haven't happend before. If the coach unfairly let the player go, I think she has a shot because it cost her a scholarship. No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team. Not going to happen. There are bad hires like this a bunch and kids are treated unfairly by coaches that can't coach a lick and have super long ropes somehow. Amazing how some of these coaches get hired and keep their job. 
    • I am going to assume you are not a lawyer, and most reasonable lawyers would not say the lawsuit has a zero percent chance in court. I agree with you that a coach has the ability to dismiss anyone from a team. However, Ms. Winfree was never presented with the opportunity to present her witnesses and have them tell the coaches and administrators what they heard. A lawyer could better explain the lawsuit and the grounds to you. Before you start making wild assumptions about the lawsuit, would it be too much to ask that you do a little legal research first? The lawsuit is dealing with due process, loss of property, and defamation.   You can read the lawsuit here: https://bdnewsletter.files.wordpress.com/2024/04/doc-1-complaint-filed-4-18-2024.pdf
