JMI1406 9 Report post Posted January 28, 2015 With the Middle School State tourney soon upon us let's talk about some of the potential match ups you would like to see. There are some really exciting young wrestlers in Middle school and the future of Kentucky wrestling looks very promising. I am by no means thinking any of these matches are guaranteed, just some that I would like to see. 70-Grandstaff v Moore 80- Escelera v Anyone Just because this kid is a stud and so much fun to watch wrestle!!! 86- Brown v Mattingly 98- Wheeler v Deck 105- Insko v Yost 121- Brown v Ervin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

purpleandgold 7 Report post Posted January 29, 2015 Both 130 and 140 are loaded. These brackets have 5-6 wrestlers who could all win it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gameface 253 Report post Posted January 29, 2015 Weight classes with multiple hammers 105,,98,92,86 and all the young guns at 70. The talent level at these weight classes are impressive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ranger123 43 Report post Posted January 29, 2015 Absolutely gameface. I was very impressed with the top level (finalists) talent across the board last yr for KY MS, but the depth from 86 to 105 is amazing this yr. And so many of these kids are still relatively young. And year in year out I always say we see some of the best pure wrestling at 70 and this year we have a full bracket of tough tough kids. No easy matches there.

BadMadDad 16 Report post Posted January 29, 2015 Escelera Vs Grandstaff at 80. Hold on to your seats, this WILL be a great match. An early match up to watch will be Sebert Woodland Vs Wheeler EO at 98. This should be a quarter-final. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

An early match up to watch will be Sebert Woodland Vs Wheeler EO at 98. This should be a quarter-final. No doubt Seibert has been very impressive. I watched him start to make his move around mid January last year. He's been on fire since. Very long kid with lightning quick speed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BadMadDad 16 Report post Posted January 29, 2015 Last year I think Seibert was a little overwhelmed at state. I think this year he will make some noise. The kid has been getting HS matches as well. He has a good little motor and is going to be a difficult out for anyone. I am also looking forward to Insko Vs Yost again. They had a great match at Woodford earlier this season, but both are great wrestlers. I know that Brown at 120 has been on top of his game all year. Question is, who has a shot at MOW?

Keepyourheadup 10 Report post Posted January 29, 2015 I like Sebert he is a good kid. If he wrestles his match he could surprise some people against Wheeler. The 86, 92, and 98 bracket has favorites but there is kids in all of them that have the capability to have a good day of wrestling and take the bracket.

REscalera 189 Report post Posted January 29, 2015 That's assuming a lot. There's a whole lot of wrestling that will have to take place before that match can happen. It's no cake walk into the finals and if either wrestlers believes otherwise they will soon find themselves on the other end of the bracket. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

purpleandgold 7 Report post Posted February 3, 2015 $12 for adults? That's absolutely ridiculous. Shame! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dutch 178 Report post Posted February 3, 2015 You should go to a weekly band competition. It's 12-15 every weekend. That money pays for officials, facility, awards, and those fancy finals singlets. I would say for a state tournament it's not to bad. Wait until you walk up to the horse park this year. I bet you say "that 12 bucks wasn't to bad" I also forgot some of the money goes to pay ranger for his time. Good luck to your team or wrestler this year. Should be a great state tournament as usual.

Ranger123 43 Report post Posted February 3, 2015 Our books are open to all of the coaches. Any coach who wants to share that information can show you that even charging $12 we barely break even on the event and some years we lose money. Getting a nice facility and running a quality tournament is not cheap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
