Tulsa Union

anyone know if there are any brackets up yet?

I doubt it yet, what othe teams are going from kansas besides Saint james academy

Columbus High School, Maize High School, Pittsburg High School, and, as you mentioned, St. James Academy.

The location of the tournament is Union Multipurpose Activity Center, 6636 S. Mingo Road, Tulsa, Oklahoma.

There is the potential of an outstanding match between two three time state champions going for their fourth between Ryne Cokeley from St. James Academy and Jeremy Davenport from Sallisaw High School.

In 2008, Davenport, a freshman, handed four time Kansas state champion C. J. Napier his only loss for the season at this tournament.

As outstanding as CJ was, he was not a 4X State Champion.

They misspelled Maize and Pittsburg on the flier. So much for copy editing.

They even misspelled presentations...just look at Sat. 8:30 time!

From INTERMAT:

Terrific Tulsa Mid-America Nationals field

Tulsa, Oklahoma will be home to a formidable field of 30 schools from three states this coming weekend. Anchoring the tournament is a trio of nationally-ranked teams: No. 18 Tulsa Union, Oklahoma, No. 21 Claremore, Oklahoma, and No. 25 Allen, Texas. Tuttle, Oklahoma joins Claremore and Allen in this field as teams that won state championships during the prior season.

Seven nationally-ranked wrestlers are present in the field, including a pair of wrestlers at 112 and 152 pounds. Freshman sensation No. 12 Gary Wayne Harding (Collinsville, Oklahoma) and two-time state champion No. 15 Calib Freeman (Claremore, Oklahoma) lead a field at 112 pounds that also includes Junior National freestyle All-American Justin Lombardo (Tulsa Union, Oklahoma). A pair of InterMat Top 100 Class of 2011 prospects anchor the 152-pound weight class - No. 12 Ryne Cokeley (St. James Academy, KS) and No. 13 Jeromy Davenport (Sallisaw, Oklahoma). Also in this weight class is two-time state placer Kyle Ash (Tulsa Union, Oklahoma).

Yet another Top 100 Class of 2011 prospect Taylor Moeder (St. James Academy, KS) is ranked 14th nationally, and could have a terrific finals matchup at 140 pounds with two-time state champion Nick Haugen (Claremore, Oklahoma). The 145-pound weight class is led by a pair of super sophomores, both winning state titles as freshmen, No. 17 Oliver Pierce (Allen, Texas) and Zach Beard (Tuttle, Oklahoma). Junior National double All-American Kyle Crutchmer (Tulsa Union, Oklahoma) is ranked ninth in the nation at 160 pounds, and could see state champion Dylan Ussrey (East Central, Oklahoma) in the championship match.

The 119-pound weight class features a pair of wrestlers from the Class of 2014 that rank in the top 20 nationally, Bo Nickal (Allen, Texas) and Cadet National freestyle All-American Will Steltzen (Collinsville, Oklahoma). In addition, this bracket could also include two-time state champion Josh Walker (Tulsa Union, Oklahoma).

That is going to be a fun tournament for sure. Too bad teams can't go even further out of state, I found this one which looks to be a monster:

Wow.

152 Seeds:

1. Oliver Pierce
2. Ryne Cokeley
3. Jeremy Davenport
4. BT O'Hara

Kyle Johnson got a 3 seed at 130.

Pierce is very good. He is 2010 Cadet 152 Fargo Freestyle Champ and he was 4th in Greco.

Is there a site for brackets?

Is there a site for brackets?

Mario Corado and Aaron Seybold both got 4 seeds.

Thanks Eric.......kills me not to be there today, Planning on going tomorrow.

What did Taylor Moeder get seeded?

Anyone planning on getting some video footage?

how about a link for those of us who have to work this afternoon?

thanks ahead of time

Chief.

What about the heavys????

Pierce is a four time Fargo Cadet AA, two of those being national championships, Gr 2009 and Fs in 2010. He is very solid. Moeder beat him at last year's Oklahoma Open. He has grown a bunch since then!

Reese Cokeley, Ryne Cokeley, Zach Pollom, Taylor Moeder, and Trent Salsbury all on the front side after two rounds.

We had tough draws getting the 2 seed in almost every bracket. Nick Mancuso ran into GW Harding in the 2nd round. Wes Harding, former KS 3xer is now the HC at Collinsville, OK HS.

Pollom pins the 3 seed!

In the Semi's!

130 - Kyle Johnson
135 - Aaron Seybold
140 - Taylor Moeder
145 - Trent Salsbury
152 - Ryne Cokeley
171 - Zach Pollom
285 - Broc Bennett

285 Bennett in semis too.

It also shows 2009, not 2010

Nice! Kevin didn't include him. Good work.

Brackets are at unionwrestling.com

SJA:
Trent Salsbury got 5th by injury default
Reese Cokeley is in for 3rd
Zach Pollom is in for third
Ryne Cokeley in the finals
Taylor Moeder in the finals

Pittsburg (to my knowledge)
Haake is top 6 not sure what place he is going for
Corado in for 3rd
Seybold in for 3rd
Bennet in the finals
I might have missed some. 189 and 215 might be placing.

Columbus (to my knowledge)
Johnson in for 3rd (wrestles corado)
O'hara in for 5th
I might have missed some.

Maize? I haven't been following very closely but I think they had 7 on the backside this morning trying to wrestle through.

Here's who I found that were not included earlier:

At 130 Skyler Olsen of Maize will wrestler Mario Corado of Pittsburg for 7th.

At 140 Zack Conway of Pittsburg is going for 7th.

At 189 Austin Tatro of Maize is going for 5th.

At 215 Austin Waring of Pittsburg is going for 7th.

I don't think Mario Corado is going to wrestle, he tweaked his back.....he took an injury default in has last match, did'nt wrestle.

Finals 45 minutes.........

Taylor Moeder took 1st.

Ryne Cokeley lost 3-0 and took 2nd.

Any final results yet?

Just got back, and Tulsa Union is going to Newton this year.
