  1. Stephen Little. Runner up as a freshman to Zane Brown @ 160lbs. 2x state champ going for his third. Won many USAW preseason nationals so far out in Iowa (if I remember correctly). Ironman Placer (5th) losing two different overtime matches to top 10 nationally ranked guys. Beat Indiana state champ who is nationally ranked this year, where the Mater Dei kid pinned his way thru a state title. His resume is stout.

    My personal opinion is that Little from Union is the most sure lock in the tournament.  The kid he beat in the Mater Dei final, Sollars, just pinned his way through a tough Indiana state tournament.  His only loses were to nationally ranked wrestlers at the Ironman.  IMHO he is unbeatable in Kentucky.  He will be on the mat less time than either Raney.

     

     

    He appeared to get penalized for unnecessary roughness on an knee pick yesterday. It was just his shear strength and power of a violent knee pick that made it looked rough. Nothing illegal about it.

    In my opinion the best way for your wrestlers to climb the ranks is to go against the best teams in the state ,sometimes you have go looking for trouble ! 

    go across the state,or go out of state and find the top guys.if you start winning some of those big matches then trust me Ranger will notice.

    Parents tell your coaches and coaches tell your AD that you want to see the top kids.

    the only way to rank up is by head to head matchups .you can’t hide behind local wins and forfeits .we had a 33-1 kid  in our region who barely got 4th ,my point is records mean nothing you have to seek out the best competition.

    Exactly. Henderson should schedule Union in a dual. They are rivals at all of the other sports and compete (except football). Right next door to Evansville, go see some of the tougher teams in Indiana. 3+ duals against the same teams every other weekend won't cut it.

    Therein lies the problem.  The results are hit and miss getting posted.  So many never show up or hit the system just before region when they are "required".  For the record based on the results I have looked at today, the Daviess kid is way too high.  But like you said, it is all decided on the mat. 

    Team scores are 100% based on individual rankings.  As much as people want to believe I have some extreme bias again teams with the HCHS abbreviation, I don't even touch that.  It is a simple calculation.

    I better go check on Henry Clay... Or was it your "hatred" of Harrison County? Maybe Henderson County too.

    That’s untrue that last year was the first time a 7th grader won HS state. It has happened before. 

    Not in this state. Mark Hall (Ryle) was runner up to Bradbury (Trinity) which was the closest any 7th grader has got to winning High School state until Jordyn Raney last year.

    It's a joke.  Youth should be able to do both youth and middle school. Or make 12u and 14u at youth state for beginners or kids that didn't Qual through regional.  Also don't understand why held back 3rd grade kids can't do middle school.  

    MS allowed grades are 4th-8th. High school is 7th-12th. HS doesn't allow a held back 6th grader to compete as well. Those are the strict grade requirements.
