I wanna hear all the big matches BEFORE the finals

I think there is a big match in the FIRST round of 4a - 160: Hattabaugh-AND/Cannon-DeSoto.

Burns vs. Finney in semis of 4A 285lbs.

In 4A - 119 #1 Zac Sparr (RH) should meet #3 Robbie Hines (ULY) in the second round.

Following that, the winner will likely then have Kriss (#4)- Colby for another big pre-finals matchup.

Chase Sanchez (Emporia) vs. Tyler Davis (McPherson) semi's at 145 5A

That should be a very good match!

Dozier (Garden City) vs. Middleton (ONW) could a fun one at 6A 145 which I'm sure Buster84 is well aware of.

Yes sir!

To continue with my 145 pattern, 3-2-1A will probably have two great semi's and 4A top side of bracket could have some great scrambles. No offense intended to anyone I didn't mention, just talking about matches I am looking forward to seeing. I will be watching 5A/6A but have to settle for internet updates on the rest.

good first round matches

Adam Pineau PLRIDGE(12) 38- 5

Taylor Shaffer WAMEGO(11) 18- 5 Bout: 100
John Hatfield PRAIRIEV(12) 36- 9

I think that there should be a couple interesting early matches in 4A 152.

Son (Chanute) VS. Rodriguez (ULYSSES) Quarterfinals Bout 145
And
Blair (VC) VS. Picking (Abilene) Semifinals Bout 298

Personally I'm really looking forward to this 152 Bracket, a lot of great wrestlers going at it.

6A:

112 - Isaac Ruiz Junction City 32-4 vs Dalton Miller Campus 34-0 Semi's

130 - Skylar McComb Derby 29-8 vs Lane Greenlee Graden City 40-3 Quarter's

135 - Possible match up - Zack Tanenbaum Blue Valley North 36-1 vs Uylesses Deshazer Wichita Heights 24-5 Finals

171 - Parker Madl Blue Valley 43-0 vs Matt Reed Wichita Heights 30-1 Semi's

215 - Jake Carroll Olathe North 12-1 vs Kyle Caylor Wichita Northwest 28-1 Semi's

215 - Nick Pearch Blue Valley 27-1 vs Gage Knudson Junction City 33-5 Semi's

Other 6A matches to watch!

112 - Haralson/Dremel semi.

119 - Humphrey/Norris semi.

152 - Charland/Gaither quarter.

189 - Blazevic/Beard quarter.

215 - Hicks/Knudson quarter.

285 - Wilson/Woodruff quarter.

Don't you mean Humphrey/McCullough winner vs. Norris/Witten winner, all four are state medalist. Although Humphrey is favored, McCullough did beat him at state two years ago. Norris certainly will have his hands full with Witten. And that's a "weak" 6A bracket.

5A
112-First Round
Lukas Maki Wichita-Kapaun Mt. Carmel 09 (37- 4)
versus
Bryce Dakin Emporia 10 (9- 4)

Interesting matchup, Dakin has state experience while Maki has none. Maki's been wrestling pretty well this year and could catch fire with a big win here setting up a possible matchup with Pursel.

Tim Prescott McPherson High School 10 28- 5
versus
Bye

I'd look out for Bye in this match, he's been on fire this year.

140-First Round
Trent Hoover Salina South 12 (24- 9)
Versus
Brent Koehn Pittsburg 10 (31- 8)

Returning state runner-up could be on the backside wrestling a tough Hoover from Salina who may be ready to step on the medal stand in his senior campaign.

Brandon-Carpenter in Rd 1 6A 189 should be a great match AND

Caylor-Marlatt, Bush-Pearch, & Knudson-Hicks in the 215 Bracket all are close.....I think.
