I've seen Cline wrestle several times this year, and you're right, he is getting better. I think if he keeps his confidence up, he'll at least place in the top 4 @ state. The kid will flat out take it to ya! However, it seems like the longer the match goes, the better shot his opponent has. If you can withstand his onslaught (sp?) in the 1st 1-1/2 periods, he kinda runs out of gas (and confidence). It's a fine line of coming out & taking to your opponent and pacing yourself in case the match goes past the 2nd period. Just my opinion...I hope he woops some tail @ state!
