Ranger123 43 Report post Posted July 7, 2006 Right now I have to go with Region 8. I have Wayne Co., Sheldon Clark, and McCreary Central all as top 10 teams plus Johnson Central a top 20 team.Next, I have Region 7, Region 5, and Region 2 in a dead heat. Region 7 with Woodford Co. the only top 10 team, but very good teams in Dunbar, Harrison Co., and Henry Clay. Region 5 with Fern Creek the only top 10 team, but very good teams in Eastern, Oldham Co., and South Oldham. Region 2 with strong teams in Larue Co. and North Hardin and tough teams with John Hardin and Central Hardin.I see Region 6 still rebuilding this upcoming season.

Mathound 4 Report post Posted July 7, 2006 I would say the best way to measure "toughness" is to guess which region is going to have the most state placers and state champions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ranger123 43 Report post Posted July 7, 2006 No region 4, Ranger?I have Region 4 and Region 6 in the next group. Region 4 has top 10 teams in Trinity and Seneca and St Xavier likely to return to top 20 form. Region 6 has no top 10 teams, but Ryle, Scott, and Campbell Co. are top 20 teams.Union Co. will be carrying the banner for Region 1. Region 3 is a tough pick, but Bullitt Central will likely be the team to beat. With those kids gaining some experience last season maybe they can take the next step and have a few high placers at state. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
taber 0 Report post Posted July 7, 2006 Lafayette is going to be better than most expect in region 7. They are returning 1 State Placer in Alex Allman and Matt Green from Apollo (4th at State) moved back to Lafayette this summer. They also will be returning some good seniors and juniors. They have worked very hard over the summer and I think some of you will be surprised at their success. Coach McCoy and Coach Ealey have worked hard to make this one of the better teams in the region.

grapplinfan 0 Report post Posted July 7, 2006 Sorry, my vote goes to region 7. Someone could put a list that long together of just Woodford and Harrison Co guys. I will give you Sullivan and Howard as finalists. But here goes finalists from Woodford..Lewis (very likely, but 125 a very different animal than 112)CourtneyStarksByrdThats more from one team than the whole region. Harrison Co could possibly contribute a couple. Counting placers, if you put those two together undoubtedly you'll get roughly the same number of placers you've listed. And there's definitely other guys from region 7 not on Harrison or Woodford that will place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest DAWG6 Report post Posted July 10, 2006 Why would I consider naming Anderson County and John Hardin I was just naming the good teams?I thought the Question was: Whats the toughest region going to be next year? When you look at some of the kids from those programs Region 2 is just as tough as other top two. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But top to bottom, there is a big drop off after Woodford. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ranger123 43 Report post Posted July 11, 2006 OK. I was just looking at the team finishes, which is based on those rankings. With 3 top 10 teams in Region 8 (which implies a pretty solid lineup top to bottom) that only leaves one spot in most weights for a guy to squeek through.

Irish Wrestler 10 Report post Posted July 13, 2006 Ranger - What issues are you talking about at Harrison Co. ? They have quite a few experienced wrestlers returning this year along with a group of Freshman and Sophomores that will be able to contribute this year. They only lost 4 wrestlers last year. And yes, they were good wrestlers but I don't think that makes them "down and out" this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And yes, they were good wrestlers but I don't think that makes them "down and out" this year. Basically - 1) they have not been wrestling much to my knowledge this summer and 2) they have some work to do to be mentally tough enough to get more than 1 or 2 placers this upcoming season Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Irish Wrestler 10 Report post Posted July 13, 2006 I guess we'll just have to wait and see. I know that Sanders, Ashbrook & Coy are going to Campbellsville Camp this weekend. I have been told that a few of the wrestlers have wrestled in tournaments this summer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wrestling4life 0 Report post Posted July 14, 2006 Ashbrook was going to wrestle in the NHSCA Open in virginia beach, but was sick when we got down there and was unable to make weight and wreslte. He would have gotten his second all-american award again, seeing that he was seeded in the top 6 there. Most of the Harrison kids wreslte in the summer, just not at tournments. they run there own practices and have their own workouts for the ones that want to go. Most of the team plays 2 or 3 sports beside wrestling so that they are staying in shape Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
