Georgia 5A Brackets

[RMC]

I'll update this when I get back home, but Parkview won the title last night. We gave them a good run getting 5 guys into the finals and winning 3 of those. Knapp (119), Parker (130), and Lukacs (145) took first place. We had 7 placers overall three firsts, two 2nd, one third and one fifth. Parkview put 5 into the finals and won 2 of those. The biggest upset of the night was Ory of Chattahoochee beating Hudson of Parkview in the 215 bout in overtime.

RMC - how did Baird of Parkview do at 140?

 

Is there a link to get to GA 4A?

 

Thx for your help.

fhsd...Baird won in a heartbreaker for me. Sean Patrick and his family are very close friends of mine.

 

Sean was ahead of Baird 4 - 3 with about 35 seconds left and had locked up a cradle and was attempting to turn it and slipped. Baird got a reversal and held on for the win.

 

He and Sean are very good friends and Baird is a great kid as all of the Parkview wrestlers are.

 

Here is the link for 4A:

If you're interested the Georgia 5A state finals will be replayed on Comcast Sports Southeast (CSS) today (2/24) at 12:30.

 

The 215 match alone is worth taping the replay.

RMC, how did Kyle end up this year could you fill us in, maybe start another post, I'm still in awe of this young man he has a great future in front of him. Also I'm not as informed as some others on here so could you tell me if Ga. has a state for a-aa -aaa, etc. ?

tophat...Kyle won his first match, lost his second match and lost in the consolation round after two wins to a wrestler from Parkview. It was just the luck of the draw that he had to face a wrestler that knew how to wrestle him and had seen him several times. Coach Ramos met him on the mat after that match and gave him a big hug that a lasted a few minutes. Kyle left the mat to a standing ovation from the other wrestlers, officials, and arena crowd. Many tears were shed.

 

I don't know if it'll be on the replay or not, but at the start of the finals they did a tribute to Kyle and rolled him out to the center of the arena and had a video of him on the big screen. It was a very emotional time for all of the Collins Hill supporters. I don’t think there was a dry eye in the crowd.
