Jakobs is one to the best 113 in the country, It would be shocking to see him not win. Maybe Jojo in Single A maybe give him a run for his money. 

Yes glad they’re in small school. Lost a lot of title growing up to the Uhorchuks.

Gotta say Pops, sentences 1 and 4 are ABSOLUTE FACTS that everyone SHOULD KNOW! Sentence #2 is a fact that only SOME people know. As I'm unable to foresee the future, I THINK and BELIEVE that you're correct on sentence #3. That being said, I "think" #3 will become a fact on Saturday evening. Good Luck to your boy!

Thank you. Been training his whole life for this moment. He’s focused. He will put on a show I can promise that. I’m looking forward to watching it myself. Wish I knew who some of y’all were so I could thank you in real life, but this will have to do. Thank you.

Mason will be one of the best technicians on the mat this weekend out of all divisions. A lot of people don't know much about him because he traveled outside the state most of his youth career, but come Saturday there will be no doubts left. The only 113 pounder I would give Mason some trouble would be Jojo. I love Walker but 113 is Mason's to lose in my opinion. It should be a great weekend 

Like I said in a post earlier, I wish I knew who everyone was so I could thank in person, but thank you. He works his tail off and I’m excited for the opportunity for my boy to showcase his skills. Beast of the East was his coming out party. Out of 8 matches in Delaware he only got scored on in one of the matches. Going to be a fun weekend. And yes, I’m glad Joe is small school. Been wrestling him and Ethan his whole career. Those kids were the rabbits and part of the reason Mason worked so hard. Forever thankful for those boys

Random question, does DB have any upcoming wrestlers I should keep an eye out for when I am traveling around?

I don’t know many of the MS kids, but Bryson Church and Derek Winseman should both do well. Also, we may have a kid or two transfer in. I’m working on it (winky face)

I think I will agree with most of the picks here, but I also pick Mason Jakob to beat Chase Walker, these are the times i wished they didnt have a split because it would be real fun to watch Jakob vs Jojo vs Bond after what Bond ended up doing to the kid from Boyd who had beaten him prior. That 113 class would be a lot of fun! Heck just throw Jakob, Jojo, Bond, Hardeman, Chase altogether and lets have some fun!

 

also at 170 I have Gibbs over Szymborski

With the population base in Tennessee there is absolutely no reason to have three divisions in wrestling.  It would be an absolute treat for the wrestling fans to see everyone back in one division for the individual state championship.  Even California, Indiana and New Jersey have one individual state champion.

Looks like Coach Bentley is headed that way for some recruiting

The way its heading we're going to be lucky if they don't add another division AND another tournament between sectionals and state.
