DominantForce Posted December 12, 2002 Report Share Posted December 12, 2002 I agree Tom Marable is one of the best wrestlers Tennesse has ever seen but look at both his sons who are both awsome wrestlers for CBHS and who will both be back next year for CBHS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

realsoccer Posted December 14, 2002 Report Share Posted December 14, 2002 First and only 4X champion who wrestled all comers, private and public. Knocks are was tournament wrestler and didn't wrestle in college. Question is Tennessee History not national. Knew when to turn it up a notch.

playboyut Posted December 15, 2002 Report Share Posted December 15, 2002 Matt Sweeton was definitely one of the best. He didn't only beat people but crushed them and made it look so easy. Philip Simpson was also one of the greatest. His record speaks all for him. Rusty Blackmon from Bradley Central is a hoss as well. I saw him his senior year pin in the finals in like 17 seconds or so. Those are some of my picks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tnmat Posted December 15, 2002 Report Share Posted December 15, 2002 I agree w/ Simpson, and would also include his bro, Patrick. R. Blackmon as well... and Keller also. Others: - Darren McKnight (3X's is something not many do) - Will Hadden (not many Hwt All-Americans) - Dee Parker (another Hwt. All-American... and not many can do a back flip after their championship match. - Casey Brewster (didn't finish well, but a multiple time all-american nonetheless) - Jake Yost (first TN wrestler to place in both Greco and Freestyle at Fargo Nat'ls) - Eric Collins (where'd he go after H.S.????) - Matt Sweeton (3X... WOW) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rabbitt Posted December 16, 2002 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2002 what about waylon lowe. he took 4th,2nd,and 1st in the state tourn. and then went to the university of findly and got 3rd as a freshman (NAIA) then got 1st as a sophomore (div.2) and is currently ranked 1st in div.2. in his junior year. i know div.2 isnt anything sompared to div.1, but to be a national champion in Div.2, you have to be a bad dude. he is thinking on transfering to UTC, so hopefully next year we will get to see his full potential.

Guest play Posted December 17, 2002 Report Share Posted December 17, 2002 The Kents from McCallie circa 74-77 The Simpsons from Father Ryan circa 73-76 Greg Wingo should be on the list as well from OHS 74-77 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
