gumbi1031 Posted January 26, 2003 Report Share Posted January 26, 2003 I wrestled some good kids: Matt McCarty, Darren McKnight, got wins over a young Chonci Houston and a young Adam Rains, but I think the wrestler that the wrestler that was the baddest at the time we wrestled was Erik Floyd from Centennial. He was on another level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Svendiesel Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 The toughest guy i ever wrestled was Derek Delporto, the assistant coach from Oklahoma. He looks like Vin Diesel, except bigger and stronger. In fact, he gave me the nick name, Sven Diesel. I also wrestled Jared Frayer, NCAA runner-up last year and Josh Lambrecht, also and NCAA runner-up. I wrestled these guys at a wrestling camp in Seymour over the summer. The camp very helpful and a lot of fun. I've also wrestled my dad, who went to Georgia Tech on a wrestling Scholarship and ws a High School All-Anerican and Georgia State Champ.

CoachBruce Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 yeah, the Enter Button can be tricky. So, since you posted in the "Who you've wrestled" thread, Who HAVE you wrestled, Russa? or have you wrestled at all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jappa Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 Quimbe if you thought Floyd was tough from Centennial then you have to have alittle respect for Matt Sweeton from Tullahoma. Matt was a 3 time State Champ (Fr,Jr, and Sr year), and was 4th as a soph. If I am not mistaken Matt beat Floyd in the state finals, and if I am wrong then John Welsh from Tullahoma beat him in the finals. Sweeton was one of the toughest wrestlers I have ever seen. Don't get me wrong there are many great wrestlers out there who deserves credit also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jappa Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 Don't forget about Matt Sweeton from Tullahoma. Matt was a three time state champ (FR,JR, and SR Year). Matt also placed 4th his soph year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gumbi1031 Posted January 27, 2003 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 Sweeton was good, but I never had a chance to wrestle him. He did beat Floyd in the finals in 98. Floyd beat Welsh in 99 and Welsh beat me in 00. As far as it goes, I have also wrestled some all-americans from Colorado and Arizona, but since I don't know their names and probably nobody else around here would know who I'm talking about, I didn't mention them.
