I thought Schumate was getting bigger, couldn't he maybe move up? If so I'd say he might catch Perez this year. Who knows though.

Perez will be the favorite at 112. Nill is too big to get to 112 next year. Shumate just wrestled 98 last week.

Shumate and Ely at 103
Perez at 112.
Nill at 119

Although I heard Aquinas is going to be 5A next year for wrestling. Anybody else heard that? If so Cisper has could be in with Malloy from Heights. I don't know if either can make 171 again. That would change things up a bit.

Twister

Crazy stuff if STA is going to be 5A... That could really change the dynamics for the regionals for the Johnson County Teams. By the way, the STA team from 103-125 will be stacked,so you will never know who could be where.

-Shumate is teeny, he couldnt be more than 110lbs.
- Lets not forget Sam Madacina from STA. He may not have placed in high school, but took second in kids...

Ideas on 140, 145 & 152 in 123A?

..thoughts..well

for sainty possibly either Matt Brown @ 140 or Jordan Gienger. Gienger possibly would be 145 as well.
@ 152 will probably will be the older Gienger brother Gabe.

Gabe Smull will probably be @ 160 this year, although there maybe a possibility of dropping to 152...only time will tell

Scarecrow 103- I thought Ty Caldwell lived in Valley Center. In fact, I thought he wrestled for them in 8th grade.

Hawkeye53,

Since you are my cross county comrade, can you tell me how the Railers fair up this year in Herrington? I know they lost a lot of firepower from last years squad but return a few guys that might do well in 3-2-1A

The BVNW 112 from last year should be pretty good this year for a sophomore.

lansing will b oen tough team 2 watch out for...they got tonz of talent on that team

Mawcoach
I assumed that to but when I talked to him at cadet duals he said andale

another good wrestler coming up is dylan mumaw Jeff West 103

Hit em up
I agree lansing will have a good team with both flynns, Grape, and buehler thats a good team like that

they should all place at state this yr...atleast in the top 3...but we will have some returning qualifiers...and a couple more kids that have the potential to make it state and do sum damage

BVNW's 125lber, forget his name, should turn a few heads. I saw him wrestle John Munyan (5th in '04) really tough, gave him one hell of a match, even if the score didnt reflect that.

Also, Lance Serbousek in my opinion should place...i thought he was a shoe in in '04, but Lucynski of Leavenworth beat him in the semi's....

Simpson, BVNW's 145lber, wrestled Clayton ( 6th in '04) at regionals real close and beat ranked Kellerman at state.

Solid kids on that team and more to come.

The BVNW kid that was 125 last year was Taylor Sibala. He lost a close match to Munyan and won his first match at state as a freshman. He is a unbelievable athlete. Time will tell what he weighs this year and who knows what else is out there.

Twister

Also the original post was who is looking good for this year and somehow it shifted to best Freshmen or something. What about any multi state champs coming back????

Twister

Lawrence (as a city) should do well
Predictions
Free State
Hardy 189
Siebert 160 0r 71
Marc Somers 112 or 19
Lhs
Nolan Kellerman 52 maybe 60
Halipan 45 maybe 52
Hussein 30 or 35

if there was 1 lawrence high school we would get in the top 10 maybe 5

Free State are losin alot of good kids(Shoffner, Matt Somers, And Bustamantebut they may be able to regroup

the only notable senior lhs is losing is clayton kellerman but i think lhs is gaining more than losing lots of good quality sophmores

Okay, I meant Sibala then, for some reason I thought he wrestled 112 last year.

who is prolly gonna b in the weights between 125-140

from lansing it will b 125-buehler 130-flynn 135-grape 140-jones...but idk thats how i see it so far
