How long has it been since Bradley missed state duals?

[fooseball95]

It’s gonna be a rough year for Bradley. They lost a lot and it doesn’t seem as though they have much coming up the pipeline for future. I believe it will be a while before they can contend for a title again. Blackman will take their spot this year at state.

not too long ago. 2018ish. Before Soddy fell off and then went to small school

Do you think they finish 2nd in team regions? If not, who do you think takes that place at Sectional Duals?

Bradley will finish second in the region behind cleveland but will go on to sectionals and lose to Blackman and won’t go to state.

That’s what I thought, but I wasn’t sure if they were down so far that someone would knock them off for 2nd. I’m not close to Chattanooga area so I wasn’t sure if there was an upstart that might take that spot.

Cleveland And Bradley are so far above everyone else in the region. East Hamilton/Walker Valley used to have some decent teams but not good enough to take over the second spot.

I'm not expecting Blackman to just walk into the state duals.  We still have to show up and wrestle.  For several years, Bradley has been known for having some tough well known kids, but what sometimes goes unnoticed is their ability to take kids who most people don't know and turn them into hammers.    

What's Walker Valley like this year?

Bradley will struggle this year. They have a couple kids but I believe this has been a long time coming. Their kids club has been neglected for years now. Which is one reason I believe Ben left. He knew what was coming after last years senior class left. Walker isn’t a bad team but not good enough to upset Bradley

Wrong…

Ben planned several years ago to leave and give Bryant the program then. But the parents of this past Senior class talked him into staying. 
My picks for duals

1) Cleveland

2) Blackman

3) Summit

 Both Wilson Central and Bradley will struggle this year. But it is expected after the classes they graduated.

Summit beats Blackman by 25

Blackman definitely gonna have a big year, but i don’t see anyone in AA outside of Cleveland being close to Summit. 

If i had to pick a podium right now id say:

1. Cleveland

2. Summit

3  Blackman

4  Nolensville
