Woodford County Invitational -Dec. 29/30

Recommended Posts

Courtney did not look that impressive tonight for some reason.  He looked small for 160. Johnson and Zarth both looked very good.

What happened to Semones at 215? Did he wrestle?

He finished 4-2 and took 5th. Lost to a wrestler from Indiana in the quarters in a tight match. Then lost to the kid from Henry Clay (who he beat a week ago) in the final round of consolations after taking a half-a$$ shot that cost him. Not a fun night tonight but no excuses. You take your hat off to the winner and you live to wrestle another day. A learning experience that hopefully will pay dividends in the future

Call it what you want but, as usual, Courtney went about his business in a workmanlike manner and brought home a 10-2 victory against the #2 ranked wrestler in the state for that weight class. As for him looking small, I believe he could probably drop down a weight class if he needed to do so.

As has been said many times in these forums, the great thing about Harrison is the fact that he is Harrison, what you see is what you get. There is no pretense or arrogance about him in any way shape or form. He's just a kid who deserves all he can get because he works hard. Everytime I see him wrestle I am reminded that it's technique, not physique, that wins wrestling matches.

I was not trying to put down Courtney in anyway.  He is a awesome wrestler.  I just dont think that he performed as well as he could have.  I think he knew this as well because even after the win he acted frustrated with himself.

who saw that kid from ohio in the 152 finals. wow his coach told him before the match to do what he wants, have fun, and show these kentucky boys a whole new world

That kid was really tough, he is a fargo placer and is an all american. It would have been great if Courtney could have wrestled him, I think it would have been a much more interesting match, but I enjoyed the takedown clynic.
