exhawk 0 Report post Posted October 31, 2006 Well martin up to 103 ,stronger and more technical will make it close ,but dont you think DAN SMith has worked just as hard this summer after getting upset at regions and getting a hard draw at state (sullivan 2nd round) ? They will battle again and I still feel smith will prevail!close? it was close when elliott was underweight, you have to realize that he has increased in size by about 25 percent and still in the same weight class, i cant wait to see that match up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rockfan 1 Report post Posted November 1, 2006 close? I cant remember exact scores ,but they were not close! One of the matches was like 9-2 or something like that with smith in control and the other was similar Obviously im a trinity fan and Martin is tough,but i still favor smith! How does martin do versus warra ? Smith wants to go 103 ,but if not i feel he can step up and do well at 112 versus Warra? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its not an excuse but he was sick at jeff, he didn't really open up and show what he could do until regionals and state. I think the regionals match would have been very close if dan had not gotten upset. Wara puts up an admirable fight, he just doesn't yet have enough varsity mat time under his belt to hang with elliott. Where will trinitys 112 from last year be(cant remember his name)?

littleschool130 0 Report post Posted November 2, 2006 I would say the match up between dan smith and elliott martin will go much differently this year, yeah dan beat him when he weighed 79 pounds and in the middle of the season, at state dan got spanked by zeppa after elliott handled him. We will see in december what the outcome is with martin now weighing 103, much stronger and more technical.i wouldnt say that elliot handled zeppa. he beat him by 1 point, 4-3. it was a pretty good match. and dan smith is going to be tough this year, coming back from j robinson's 28 day camp. but then again, elliot is having to cut weight this year, so we know hes gained some muscle. smith and martin will be a good match, very close.

Zeppa is a very good wrestler, and i have respect for him. I think elliott just "had his number" last year, they wrestled 5 or 6 times and elliott won all of them. Elliott worked very hard over the summer, he got in over 30 out of state matches, went to a few of Joe McFarland's camps in Michigain, tough kids up there from Davidson Academy, and several other good teams from ohio, michigain, monatna, and lots more.
