I am not in disagreement with any of the wrestlers that are ranked at 152, but after watching wrestling in Hays this past weekend. Freshman Christopher Ball out of Hoisington is the real deal. I am guessing he will continue to get better as well, as he has access some pretty good practice partners in the house.
I was impressed with his performance at Hays and he is actually sitting at 7th in my rankings. This week at Fredonia will see #3 Josh Young from Burlington, #6 Logan Sherman from Fredonia, and #6 in 5A Sam Kissane from Maize South all at 152. Kissane was beaten by Ball last week, so that should be common opponent for Young, Sherman and Ball.
Ball will also get the chance to wrestle #2 Mike Kasson from Norton at Phillipsburg in another week.
Either way things will sort themselves out at State!
