Division 2 Champs

[ctownballa]

Give me your opinion on who the team champ and individual champs of Division 2 this year.

[The Name]

There will be an excellent battle between baylor/ryan/mccallie. ryan is the only team that definatly has to wrestle both baylor and mccallie in the state duels. the three teams all have outstanding lineups this year, so i think that it would be easier to make predictions about individual winners, before team champs. so here goes mine.

 

103-Simpson MBA

112-Manson Baylor

119-Dunning Ryan

125-Hillar-Ryan

130-Oddo-Ryan

135-Leen-Baylor

140-Myers-Ryan

145-Manely-Mccallie

152-Stark-Ryan

160-(who is going 60?)

171-???

189-???

215-Lomas-Ryan

Hwt-???

 

Sorry I really don't know what all the teams have going on in the upper weights, and I know I missed some of the big names in the middle weights. Should end up to be a great year of wrestling. From the looks of my predictions (which I know and encourage everyone to badger to death) Ryan will take home a state title again. Let me hear from everyone else on what you think.

I wanna see some more opinions on this. It could be very interesting. What does matman think about this topic? No one seems to be able to fill in all of the gaps. Its a tough challenge.

Does Ryan Scott still wrestling ? Just wondering ..... Thought it would be a walk for him this year....

[RMC]

I saw Ryan Scott yesterday at the Walton Duals and he looked outstanding.

[Joe7]

Scott is at 160

Stark from Ryan is at 171

[mtnrasslin]

Scott wrestled 152 last week and Smith was at 160 for McCallie. Has this changed? If Dunning stays at 119 I don't see him beating Geismer.

The Marable brothers are going be hard to beat at 160 and 189.

[BleacherButt]

I don't think Ryan will fair as good as The Name thinks, but will still be tough. Ryan would have a better chance if Dunning went 112 and Hiller 119.

Seams like the Baylor guys have settled in their weights.

McCallie seams to be exploring where their strongest. I hear Cleveland be at 130, Scott at 160 and Smith, Blair and Manley still to be determined.

Nick Marable might be in the mix in 152 or 160 except I don't think he can beat Scott or Manley.

Here is the way I see it.

 

103 Johnson-Baylor

112 Manson-Baylor

119 Geismer-Baylor

125 Hiller-Ryan

130 Cleveland-McCallie

135 Leen-Baylor

140 thru 160 Smith, Blair, Manley, Scott (Not sure where these guys will be, but should be tops in DII)

171 Stark- Ryan

189 Marable-CB

215 Lomas-Ryan

Hwt Seay-MCath

Bleacherbutt, no disrespect, but how can Nick Marable not be in the running for a state championship? He is after all a national champion, who did beat Ryan Scott last year before the state tourney. Sure Scott won when it mattered, but its kind of ignorant to say Marable doesn't have a chance.

[BleacherButt]

I didn't say Nick doesn't have a chance. In fact, this is the hardest one to call. Nick is very talented and a good kid. I based this on the fact the Scott won the last match between the two and by several points.

Give me your thoughts if Nick wrestled Manley at 152?

[brothersboy]

manely will not be able to use his strenght against nick and nick is a great deal quicker then him so i believe nick would win but it would be very close.
