    2023 Ranger Report

    Incredible depth Ranger!!! I definitely have a few more matches that I will looking forward to now. thanks for another fantastic season for doing the boys rankings !!
  3. I hope everyone knows I was joking!! I don’t know how he keeps up with 10!
  4. Thanks for keeping the rankings going Ranger! I’ve said it before ,wether your #1 or #21 it is so much motivation for the boys and so much fun for the parents. just relax and try to enjoy the season. With that being said next week can you expand it to the the top 50?
  5. Lane had some hand surgery. He will be back for the regular season but will have to miss super 32 and the all star classic unfortunately. good luck to Strayer and Burchett ,we will be there to watch all of the action! Can’t wait for the All Star classic!! thanks to Ranger and everyone else for making this happen!!!!

    All time Goats

    I would give my vote to Knable !! he is still rolling with these boys and putting out state champions year after year ! invicta wrestling academy has been the best thing that ever happened for Ky wrestling (even though it’s in Indiana) !
  12. 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.

    State first round?

    Please tell me that central is not hosting semi state next year! Regionals alone was a catastrophe (no offense)to central but there was no parking ,no track wrestling dashboard,,no mat assignments ,kids were running the tables and accidentally unplugging the score boards ,missing points because they were on their phone and the concession stand closed 4 hours before the tournament was over . I’m not trying to be disrespectful,I just don’t think they can handle that kind of volume.
  15. Come on man ,are you really arguing over a #17 spot ? we are lucky that Ranger takes the time to even do a top 30 ,most states only do a top 10 . Cut Ranger some slack ,we are so fortunate that he takes the time to do this at at alll !!

    Regions

    Region 3 DQ at 113 was called as a rough cross face that ended up hurting the other wrestlers neck and he couldn’t continue. he put his headgear back on for a second and tried but he was hurting to much and just couldn’t wrestle.

    Semi state seeding

    How can we seed the small Fern Creek tournament but not our Semi-State and State meet ? No wonder Ky Wrestling is so far behind ! the people at the helm have no clue what these kids go through and how unfair a random draw is:(

    Unbeaten wrestlers 1/23/22

    I have watched both of these boys since middle school! Noah Vs Lane is also going to be good! at 175 . Noah is definitely going to want that title back . 215 is wide open ,hopefully Virsi comes back ,but him and Jackson Geiller should be a great match as well ! sorry if I misspelled anyone !
