Well, Rick McKnight and Leen will be a good match, Rick has stepped it up a bit this second half of the season, he won the Hewitt-Trussville Tournment down in Alabama, with two pins, a win 16-3, and a OT win over a top ranked opponent from Parkview, Ga. At 112 Lucas Strozak and Manson will be a good rematch, I think Manson pinned him at the McCallie Tourn. but Strozak has stepped it up a bit also, he placed 2nd down in Alabama after being seeded 8th, knocked off the number 1 seed. At 160 Spitalny and Mooney will definately be a good match, Spitalny beat Mooney by 3 or 4 when they wrestled at the McCallie Tournment. I think Vaughn and Williams will be a close match, Williams came very very close to beating Hobbs twice, so look for a fairly close match there. And O'Neal and Walker

will be good. Red Bank doesn't have much of a chance of winning but they won't be shut out. They are missing a 215 pounder and thats all. Starting off the season they had a good chance at a run, but a couple hard blows have put them out, with people quiting, injuries, and people not making weight.

I guess that all depends on what you consider a good match. I'd say that Lane-Leen is a good match, and Mondelli-McKnight is a good match. If you recall, Cleveland slaughtered McKnight in the finals at Father Ryan. I don't think he'll have any more success against Leen, not to take anything away from McKnight. Same with Strozak and Manson. Drakan, maybe we'll see McKnight bump up to 140 for a more competitive match.

    • Did this happen? Does anyone know? Ripley has their HC job posted on the bulletin board over the weekend.
    • Coalfield definitely isn't the same team they've had the past few years. They are still the favorites to make it out of their region because of their pitching. They have 1 arm that sits low to mid 80s and 2 other arms that are mid to high 70s with good off speed stuff. If you can avoid their top 3 bats in their lineup then you have a shot to beat them. Their 4-9 hitters are average at best. Wartburg's ace was able to shut them down last week in the game Wartburg won 4-2. 
    • It is the longest season. Plus, 30 games a year. No Christmas break. I would say basketball is the most time consuming. 
    • No movement on Chester? South Gibson? Gibson County?
    • Winfree's senior year was the season she needed to secure more college interest. That opportunity was taken away from her. A lot of false assumptions can be made about what happened and what the options are. Unfortunately, the former coach and administration did not allow Winfree to have due process. A lawsuit was filed for a reason, and it will run its course by people who conduct discovery and take depositions. Unless the parties settle out of court, a lot of the pertinent issues will come to the public surface. I wrote about many of the issues here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/11/17/grounds-for-investigation-and-suspension/ I interviewed Winfree after she was dismissed from the team and wrote about it here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/12/01/a-new-interview-with-sable-winfree/ Winfree had been on teams in Warren County since the fourth grade and never been dismissed from a team. The real questions are why was Winfree dismissed from the team, and why the administration backed a coach whom they did not rehire.
