Purple&Gold 0 Report post Posted February 16, 2020 What do you all believe were some of the biggest upsets at state this year, and which was the most surprising? I personally think that Tucker Shelton's loss to Watkins was the most surprising. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LCalum 31 Report post Posted February 16, 2020 #3 in the state Watkins is a great wrestler. Desales had a awesome season and Watkins making finals was a great accomplishment and he was well deserving. Tucker Shelton wrestled the past two weeks with a separated shoulder, won his 4th region title and finished in 3rd place wrestling injured. There were a lot of top kids in the state wrestling inured this weekend. Seen a lot of gutsy performances by kids wrestling hurt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kid looked strong as an ox. Union has a JV kid coming up next year who beat Lehman at the raider rumble last season. He’s relatively unknown now but could be someone worth mentioning next season. Darius Moore over #2 Smith second round was huge. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TrinityWrestling 8 Report post Posted February 16, 2020 Cox is going to be a nice addition to the Union squad next season. It was actually Lenhart that he beat at Ryle last year. Lehman lost to Pogue 4-2 in the finals of that tournament. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Collin Teutsch made the semifinals for Caldwell County, beating Olivia Messerly second round. Then Messerly turns around and loses to a kid she beat twice this year from Campbell County. State is so unpredictable. Anything can happen. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tja 150 Report post Posted February 16, 2020 Charlie McKune pinning his way to the finals ran into a buzzsaw in Deck but still an impressive performance none the less by the freshman. 18th ranked Keaton Elliott over 4th ranked Gavin Andreoni and #2 ranked Seth Lutes in the 5th place match.

Kid is an absolute stud and no doubt helped the middle weights in the practice room. Guys like that are extremely valuable to a good team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tbagnky 33 Report post Posted February 16, 2020 Elliston making it to the finals against Brown, Virzi and an undefeated Miller was a shock in our camp. Lehman had one hell of tournament also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
