Region 2 has had some good ones over the last 5 yearswho have been State Champs.

Scott Dix, Farragut-140

Eric Farris, Farragut-135

Erric Watkins, Farragut-215 My top pick. He always looked so calm killing folks. That chop he had made you fill sory for the other kid.

 

Cody Humphres, Hall's -145

 

Karns two big boys. I will have to check names. The kid they had in 2002 was tuff.

Region one had a guy you may have heard of Daniel Crosby

[Hamm]

Region 5 has had Matt Sweeton, Erick Floyd, Steve Craig, Brian Guthrie, Angelo Giansante. Kellen Holliman and Kenny Meredith are also making names for themselves.

[BayouBear]

Rigger ---Eric Watkins ? Come on. He won his only title because a kid turned him lose to soon in OT. Region 2 wrestling was not invented at Farragut High School 4 years ago.

 

In Region 2 it's Chris Vandergriff. Heavyweight champ in 1976 and 1977.

 

In Region 1 it's Waylon Lowe. 135 Champion 1998.

That is some pretty impressive wrestlers right there, but did Angelo ever had to wrestle Sweeton. I was just wondering if they had ever met up.

Region II:

 

Rusty McCroskey, Nick Breeden, Craig Johnson, Junior Hernandez.

Shannon Sayne, Chris Vandergriff, Eric Farris, Grey Simons' son, I think it was Grey JR, but I am not sure. Just a few for the moment, I 'll add to it later.

First thing, no matter what you say about how Eric Watkins won he will always be a STATE CHAMP. Second, Rigger was just stating his opinion. He was not saying that wrestling was invented at Farragut in Region 2. He is more familiar with those guys than any other kids in the Region.

 

DAL- great list. In my opinion, those are some of the best wrestlers to come out of Region 2. There have been some great ones come out of the Region that never won state.

 

Overall, everybody has listed some great wrestlers to come out of their respective regions. Let's not bash anyone on this list because it is not right to bash one kids accomplishment when more than half of the people on this board don't no what it is like to be a state champion.
