fooseball95 Posted September 28, 2021 Report Share Posted September 28, 2021 It’s pretty much October and teams starting to practice. Figured I’d start a thread since there hasn’t been much talk about the upcoming season. Favorites? Underdogs? Dark horses? Any thoughts?

JIII Posted September 29, 2021 Report Share Posted September 29, 2021 Cleveland graduated McDaniel (1st), Bradford (1st), C. Laxton (3rd),and loses Chittum (1st) plus Gray at 195. That’s a lot of points to replace, however they do return 3 medalist A. Laxton (2nd), Randall (2nd), Ellison (2nd), and returning champs Fowler, Boyd, Davis. Based on what is returning they have to be the favorite I think. Everyone else is chasing and Wilson Central and Bradley return some talent also. Can Summit improve on last year’s improvements? I think they are headed the right direction and how long until they are in the contender category. Could be this year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oceansize42 Posted September 29, 2021 Report Share Posted September 29, 2021 (edited) FYI: There is only AA and A now. AA = AAA going forward. Below is the new big school alignments. As I see it Region 1 is absolutely decimated. Neither DB or SH plays any role come the end of the year. DB lost their four medalists and SH is well, I don't know. I do know Dempsey transferred to DB from SH and that hurts not to mention asst. coach Caleb Myers left SH for greener pastures. So this year is a battle between Cleveland and whatever talent exists on the west side of TN (which isn't any different than last year). Jefferson lost their four best wrestlers as well.

CHSBLUE Posted September 29, 2021 Report Share Posted September 29, 2021 I think that Bradley and Wilson Central will probably both be good again this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There seems to be a dip in upcoming talent from just a few years ago. SH had: Chase Diehl, Tyler Seeley, Jared Harter, Mann, Jahkye Aples, Arthur James, Joseph Frye, etc. SH Incoming Freshman of note: Smalling DB had: Tre, Clint, Watkins, Hurst, Lemmons. DB Freshman of Note: Mason Jakob (is he actually going to compete at DB, sit out?), Max Norman TN High (Single A now) at least had: Pendley, Ferguson, and Fields. Jefferson Had: Logan Fisher, Landon Fisher, Ryver, and Weatherford Jefferson Freshman of Note: No idea on who is coming up. Many of the above from a few years ago were MS champs or at least medalists and showed early promise by medaling early in their HS careers. I don't see the backfill of talent based off their feeder program's success or lack thereof.

Overall I think it's a Cleveland-Wilson Central race with #3 through #7 going to a number of different teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Jakob will be an 8th grader this year too. Outside of the Kingsman TNAAU kids I'm not sure there were a lot of young ones coming up into HS this year out of Region 1.
