Relax. I don’t scan court records for name changes. Will get you back in next round.

The first couple weekends have been way more interesting than anticipated so we have already seen some movement in the rankings. I have also started removing a lot of guys not on rosters (some exceptions for special circumstances) and hope to totally remove anyone without at least a weight assessment by the end of the month. Tournaments usually help me fill out the weight classes, so we are still a little short at a couple weights but hopefully will get that rounded out over the next couple weeks as everyone hopefully gets on the mat. Great dual between Union and Ryle and it looks like they are the solid favorites to battle for a team title in March. Paducah Tilghman and Christian Co are a dead heat on the next tier with Johnson Central, Walton, and Trinity just behind. So nice to be back on the mat and in competition. Everyone say a little prayer of thanks and be grateful for every day we get. Rankings_20_21_0120.pdf

Strayer => Great Crossing

Bryce was one of the best ever on the mat and just as great of a kid off the mat. Really enjoyed the times I was able to travel with Bryce and his family as part of Team Ky over the years.

Gotcha. I have suggested to many people that we don’t even attempt to understand why or how some of these rules are in place. We will only drive ourselves crazy trying to understand the nonsense.

I would argue I saw a handful of matches today where the 1 minute first period prolonged matches that would have ended, but the quick first period resulted in likely longer matches. Rjs we are often on the same page, but I’m not necessarily buying the limit on total contact.

Hitting the weights extra hard. Has to be a 125 in less than 12 months.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas holiday. Even though there are still a lot of outstanding weight assessments, Santa dropped off an update for me, so I figured I would post prior to kicking off the season in less than 2 weeks. Thanks a ton to all the coaches who gave me updates and early projections on your lineups. Your guys may be a little underrated at this point since there are still a lot of guys in last year’s weight classes, but it will work itself out pretty quickly in January once all the tests come in. Region 1 is looking super competitive. Hearing lots of rumors about the post season (not sure any of them have any validity), but if we go to a 16 man state bracket a lot of good kids will get left home out west. A couple weight classes are shaping up to be extremely exciting. Rankings_20_21_1227.pdf

Because I also believe the KHSAA will be reluctant to give up the $ from the 32 man bracket I probably say scenario 1. Realignment would be needed, but I would much prefer that over a large/small division. Back in the old days we had some great district rivalries and a lot of varied teams winning trophies.

100% on board for bringing back districts. Many of these regions are way too big.

I would suggest state duals 3 weeks before region as it was moved previously.

Very true on all accounts. Ha ha. So many hammers in those brackets no way to pick them all.

I’ll just give a couple that I feel strong about ... 106 - Braden Davis tough kid from Michigan that has given Spencer fits his entire xareer 113 - obviously 120 - Cooper Flynn 126- Jordan Titus 132 - bouzakis 285 - Horne
