You seem to forget that Brandon Smith won at sub-district to Brenden Halpin 6-0. I wouldn't call the race yet, they are both great wrestlers and great kids. You never know when someone might be having an off day. If your going to lose, it's best to do it before State weekend. Goodluck to both. Your are both great sportmen win or lose, which makes you always the winner. For "just a 8th grader" I'd say Brandon does fine.
