Flo number 9 Dominic Bambinelli vs unranked Max Norman will be a fun one. Dominic beat Max pretty solidly last summer.  See if Max has closed the gap.

Bambinelli wrestled McTorry in the finals at 160 at the Holy Angels December 30th and beat him 18-5. Be cool if Max gets the win.

Dominic Bambinelli (Mill Creek) defeated Tre McTorry (Nolensville)

If your wrestling program is mentioned in the same paragraph with Paducah Tilghman, Union County and Johnson Central, you have arrived in KHSAA wrestling.
 
Anyone paying attention to Great Crossing's ascent the past two years and especially this breakthrough season already knew that. The Warhawks embellished the point over the weekend and punctuated a banner year with third place in the state championship at George Rogers Clark Arena in Winchester.
 
Great Crossing qualified three wrestlers for the championship round and placed seven on the podium.
 
Ren Birk (113), Gus Roberts (132) and Aiden Butler (157) became the first three wrestlers in program history to reach the title match. Each finished second in the state.
 
Rowdy Benner (126) and Ethan Sentelle (150) finished fourth in their divisions. Joshua Strayer (175) wound up fifth, while Nicholas Armentano (138) was sixth. Trent Cano (120), Clayton Shaddix (144), Malakhi Young (165) and Joaquin Solis (215) also qualified and competed for GC, as did Jonah Baysinger (138) and Kayne Garrett (150) of Scott County.
 
Led by four individual champions, Paducah Tilghman took down seven-time defending champion Union County, 185.5 to 162. Great Crossing tied Johnson Central with 119 points after the Golden Eagles narrowly won last week's Regions 5-8 semi-state meet.
 
GC won both the state dual meet championship and its region title earlier in recent weeks.
 
“Those boys battled, and I am proud of them for what they have done for this community and the sport of wrestling,” GC coach Sam Murdock said.
 
Birk dropped a 7-0 decision to Landon Evans of Ryle in the 113-pound final.
He was nearly untouchable on his way through the bracket. After earning a 9-1 major decision over Kayden York of South Warren on Friday, Birk shut out Mason Orth of Campbell County in the quarterfinals and Ryan Smith of Johnson Central in Saturday's semi.
 
Roberts fell to Leland Reeves of Taylor County, 3-1, on a takedown early in sudden-victory overtime at 132. Reeves earned a point by escape to start the second period and Roberts returned the favor at the outset of the third in what was otherwise a stalemate.
 
In the semis, Roberts cruised past Colin Tucker of Wayne County via major decision, 9-1.
 
Butler yielded the 157-pound title to Braedon Herron of North Hardin when he could not continue the match after an injury timeout during the second period. Herron led on points at the time of the stoppage.
 
On his route to the final, Butler beat three Louisville-area wrestlers, two by decision and another by fall.
 
Benner pounded out a 7-5 decision over Micah Thompson of Boyle County before being pinned by eventual 126-pound state champion Jordyn Raney of Union County. At 150 pounds, Lafayette's Jasitin Kubwimana avenged a 4-3 quarterfinal loss to Sentelle with a 7-5 verdict in the third-place contest.
 
Baysinger earned Scott County's three points in the meet with a consolation-bracket pin of LaRue County's Charlee Reed Greenwell.

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
