Region 5 at least deserves to be in the discussion I could see region 5 having the most champions (4 favorites) with as many as 9 in the finals. With Meiman out. region 6 may only have 4-6 in finals with Cornett as only favorite

There something about Hoptown's gym that makes for a great wrestling atmosphere.

Ryan Moore and Mason Smith are the two Ky champs. Well done boys!!!

Oldham Co- will be tough to beat, very few holes in their line up. They are the favorite imo. They could be their own worse enemies though. Saint X- very balanced will keep getting better. Hanson staying healthy will be key for them. Woodford- They have some hammers and some really good wrestlers. If they can get a few others to step up they could be right there. Campbell - can cause match up problems for certain teams. They are use to the big stage. N. Oldham- is really underrated. They have some anchors at the bigger weights. They won't give up a lot of bonus points. Trinity- Can't see their studs getting enough bonus points to beat teams above. Johnson Central- has a lot of talent from middle weights up. Will they even go, would they show up, will they show up? Blanton and company are for real though?

Good points with Johnson and the 70-80 pouders. Roth vs TKC would be fun. Kids last year were intimidated by Roth at state and most were beat before stepping on the mat with him. Tom's relentless toughness could cause Blake a lot of problems if match stayed close very long. Moore would have his hands full, but would find a way to win like he did in semis the year he won. A Tucker vs Brown could be interesting.

Last year champs from 80-121 was loaded with talent and experience. This years group of young guns have stepped up and not missed a beat. Could you imagine these matchups. Tucker vs this years 86 Roth vs 92 Bender vs 98 Moore vs 105 Smith vs 113 Gray vs 121 I'm sure there are other great matchups at other weights but some of these would be barnburners. Let's here how you think these matchups would go.
