8 & under 49

just joined and wanted to find out who is tough at 8& under 49. who may suprise and who is a shoe in.

Deshazer
Dryden
Hitchcock

any one who may suprise us?

Who is us?

I think it's fairly wide open after that.

just a question. "us" is anyone who is interested in that age and weight. i assume that you replied because you are, if not then dont reply again.

man you aint going to get no where talking to folks like that here on your first nite of being a member.

Deshazer is my pick, I think he's only 5 yrs old! Incredible to watch, very tough kid...

new to this forum not new to forums in general, besides I didnt try to tick anyone off just asked a question and got a reply that was sarcastic and rude.

Deshazer is only 5? wow that kid is tough

The last time I heard he was something like 66-2, lost his first two matches of the year, hasnt lost since. STUD!

picks on top six?

he looks to be very strong, stud is right. He may be the one at state. anyone from the other districts that may give him a tough time?

Ouch..I just bit my tongue.

It's hard sometimes to read these posts and tell if someone is being sarcastic, condescending etc. or not... I didn't mean to come across that way. I was just curious who you were.

I think Dylan has about as good a chance as anyone. Every kid who qualified has the same mission in mind.

I think Deshazer has beat Dryden 3 times this year, and Dryden has beat Deshazer twice. I watched them wrestle in the Finals at the Classic and it was one of the best matches I have ever seen. Dryden won 2-1 I think.

Thanks, im just curious to find out the comp for this division. this is our first year wrestling and my son is 8 & under 49. because he is in his first year and so we were wanting to know who was tough in other divisions, we are in division 2

sims from the greater gold is pretty good to...

Just to help out...Deshazer is 8 years old. I also believe that Dryden and Deshazer are dead even 3-3 this year. They are both great competitors and should be an exciting finals match. Hitchcock and Sims will be in the mix for sure.

I hear that paul kid is the one to watch.

Rhyker Sims has a good chance. He & Paul Stuart go at it at state in there first match, should be a good one.

Dryden has a 4-3 advantage over Deshazer this year winning @ CK Kickoff, Salina, Winfield, Park City-Wichita Classic.

Logan Roether i think will be in the mix to. I think there is going to be some upsets in this bracket this weekend cant wait for it to get started.

Kmac, you are correct. I forgot about the match at Salina.

Looking over the Bracket...here are my favorites.

In Alphabetical Order:

Deshazer
Dryden
Hitchcock
These Three are a lock for the top 3 in my opinion.

Others to watch:

Becker
Duncan
Sims
Stuart

I'm not saying the rest don't have a chance...these are the ones that I've seen wrestle this year.

I watched D Pelland win at the Great Bend and also saw him beat Sims at District Saturday. I wouldn't bet against him! Good luck Coach Greg!

Nice touch with the "Alphabetical order" bit Beeson.

Sorry, I was thinking of a totally different kid than Deshazer. Although the kid I was thinking about is 5 yrs old and wrestles at 49lbs. Duwayne Villalpando is the young stud I was thinking about. My Bad....

CW BUOY - I don't know the kid you are talking about personally, but if he's that studly why wouldn't he be entered in 8&U Subs, Dists & State? Just a question...

Something we all need to think about when we throw names around is that it is the kid then that has to back it up - not the adults!!!

the kid has nothing to prove. he is just a kid wrestling and having fun. if the parent puts his name out there then its on the parent but i think we need not to say the kid has to back it up. the kid might be a 5 year old stud. nothing wrong with saying that. he may not be 8 year old ready yet but that doesnt mean he isnt a stud among the 5 year olds.

Good point about stud among 5 year olds bockman.
He wrestled at 6 and under state. My little boy had the opportunity to wrestle the 5 year old from TOHK in the first round at Ottawa and he is undoubtly a very impressive wrestler. I was told this was a first year of wrestling by one of their coaches. The little guy didn't place this time but he made a believer out of me. I believe he will do extremely well next year, 6 and under or 8 and under!

Mike Daniel

My favorite might be Cody Phippen. However I might have some bias. He wrestled great this past weekend beating Tanner Duncan and losing to Hitchcock 2-0.
