grappler119 Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 Any early thoughts/insights into the HHC this year? I believe it is going to be a tight battle for the top spot between Jeffersonville and Jennings County followed closely by Columbus East. I think Floyd Central and New Albany are still young and fall somewhere in the middle follwed up by Madison, Seymour, and Bedford (not in any specific order). Overall, I think the experience level is coming up and should prove to be a competitve season. Here are estimates of top 4 in each weight class (purely a guess until we see where people end up in weight). 103 1Kennedy Floyd Central 2Nelson Columbus East 3Deleon Jeffersonville 4Hill Seymour 112 1Shepherd Jeffersonville 2Happel Floyd Central 3Engleking Jennings County 4Coomer New Albany 119 1Reiker Columbus East 2Taylor Madison 3Holwager Jennings County 4Ward New Albany 125 1Reiker Columbus East 2Castro Jeffersonville 3Resch Jenings County 4Jamison New Albany 130 1Reiker Columbus East 2Montgomery Jennings County 3Ward New Albany 4Krurer Floyd Central 135 1Marler New Albany 2Gast Jennings County 3Vazquez Jeffersonville 4Garcia Columbus East 140 1Adams Madison 2Harbin Jeffersonville 3Shuler Coumbus East 4Saylor Jennings County 145 1Weekley Jeffersonville 2Baughn Bedford NL 3Holwager Jennings County 4Stillinger Columbus East 152 1Tatgenhorst Jeffersonville 2Ogle Columbus East 3Foster Floyd Central 4Carpenter Seymour 160 1Browner Jeffersonville 2Fish Madison 3O'Connel New Albany 4Sneed Floyd Central 171 1Brierly Columbus East 2Wathen Jennings County 3Marlin Jeffersonville 4Mann New Albany 189 1Baldwin Jennings County 2Bowen Jeffersonville 3Faith New Albany 4Reynolds Bedford NL 215 1Bass Jennings County 2Pratt Jeffersonville 3Young Madison 4Leasor New Albany 285 1Collett Jennings County 2Curtley Jeffersonville 3Biesen Madison 4Sharpe Floyd Central Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grappler119 Posted November 5, 2010 Author Share Posted November 5, 2010 Made a few adjustments with some new information. There should be some great match-ups this year. 119 Reiker vs Taylor 140 Adams vs Harbin 171 Brierly vs Wathen with Marlin in the mix 189 Balwin vs Bowen 215 Bass vs Pratt 285 Collett vs Curtley or Dewitt (will be a great wrestle-off in Jeffs room) Could be a big year for state qualifiers from the conference. I see 12 weights that have kids with legitimate shots at getting through the semi-state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tskin Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 Fish will not be wrestling 160lbs this year. Prob be at 171lbs or 189lbs. Madison has a very young team this year so I am still trying to figure where everyone is going to fit in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

backagain Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 i would have to say floyd central will be a competitor again this year. They have not dominated the past couple of years but they got that stuff behind them. They have dominated the middleschool tournaments the past three or four years. They have one of the strongest coaching staffs with 4 former D1 wreslters coachin in the room and some good athletes out. In two years they should have the best team in the hhc. I still think Jeff is the top team but they lost a lot of guys. Floyd and JC will be right there with them. After that it is a pretty big drop off in competition.

Jeff Floyd Jennings NA Columbus Bedford Madison Seymour I think you may be over rating Floyd a little and under estimating Columbus East. CE has it's entire team from last year returning including a couple of very good wrestlers returning from injury. CE could win HHC. Should be a good battle between Jeff, JC and CE. FC, NA and Mad will fall in line after that with Bed and Sey bringing up the rear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tskin Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 Well hopefully Madison doesn't finish in the basement like you are predicting. We are a young team with 15 freshman and currently 37 on roster but I think we can be a good team in HHC before it is all said and done. Right now I agree with CEWrestling, I see 3 classes in the HHC, and I think Madison will fall in the middle somewhere. I see jeff, East, and Jennings as the top dogs this year. I have heard great things about Floyd so they may be making that jump back into the top dog spot this year. I would say every team in the HHC though is on the move and programs are improving across the board!!!! Look for greta things from all the teams come tourney time.

backagain Posted November 10, 2010 Share Posted November 10, 2010 I agree the HHC is getting much stronger. I put Madison there because I knew they were real young and bnl looked like they were improving last year. I don't think theres a basement in the HHC. As long as teams fill out spots they'll be competing. I didnt realize CE had so many returning, so maybe my early predictions were a little off. I'll move CE above NA but I think NA will be improved over last year as long as they fill all their spots. I could see the top four all getting at least one loss based on matchups at the HHC duals. I think FC will be back because they had a ton of good underclassmen last year and should have a boatload of freshman out this year that did very well at the middle school. I don't see them overtaking Jeff because it looks like the room at Jeff is pretty deep and more experienced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grappler119 Posted November 11, 2010 Author Share Posted November 11, 2010 I agree that the level of competition is coming up across the conference. I believe there are currently 10 ranked wrestlers in the conference (and I am sure there will be a few more before the end of the season). Sorry if I missed any names. 112 - Shepherd (11) Jeffersonville 119 - Reiker (12) Columbus East 130 - Reiker (12) Columbus East 135 - Weekley (12) Jeffersonville 171 - Brierly (12) Columbus East; Wathen (11) Jennings County; Marlin (11) Jeffersonville 189 - Bass (11) Jennings County 215 - Collett (12) Jenning County; Pratt (12) Jeffersonville Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fn Central Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 backagain...I have to say that I am with you. Floyd is coming back and will be stronger than ever. Coach Sisson is second to none, along with the three other d1 wrestlers now on our coaching staff. Our middle school teams have dominated during the last few seasons, and we had much off season success. Jeff has had there fun, but it is now time Floyd to take back the reins as THE top program in the HHC!!! ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bulldog11 Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 I agree I really think Columbus East is going to wake some people up in the HHC. 119 125 130- Reikers 171 189- Brierly missed last season and is a man on a mission and Johnson only a soph. at 171 is really going to surprise alot of people. 112- 171 I really don't see Columbus East losing alot of matches.

backagain Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 CE will be tough in the middle classes. I'll have to wait to see the entire team before I give them the crown though. I checked out jeff on the capital city brackets. lots of new names in there. I think your going to see close race at the top this year. i think a lot of teams have three or four guys they can count on for sure but the team that wins will be the one that is most solid from top to bottom and doesnt give up pins and picks up bonus points. this will be the most exciting hhc duals in a long time i think. guess we'll know more come saturday.

backagain Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 did ce not wrestle everyone or do the have some ffs in the lineup? jeffs got a lot of new guys in the lineup this year and did not do great at captial city. looks like the title is going to be a toss up this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cewrestlingfan Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 did ce not wrestle everyone or do the have some ffs in the lineup? CE did not take a 103 to New Castle and then had a couple of guys dinged up and forfeited those weights the last couple of duals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
backagain Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 Thanks everyone who posted results out there. Looks like a lot of teams are still figuring out there line ups and filling all the spots. Jennings County should be a great matchup with CE with some big battles if they can both have a compelte lineup this weekend. Any results from New Albany, BNL, or Seymour?? FC has only wrestled their scrimmage and they have some of the best talent they had in many years. I could see four state qualifiers on that team. From what I've seen they have a good shot at getting the crown back this year with the six minute style back in action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattM Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 Any results from New Albany, BNL, or Seymour?? Seymour had first meet Tues. against Bloomington North winning 42-33. We will face Hanover Southwestern this Tuesday. Still figuring out some weight issues and battle a little sickness (as are most) but hopefully that is better figured out before duals. We do have a large number of freshman on the squad this year that will help in building us more depth over the next few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GUNNY77 Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 Jennings County is looking very good in this young season, they just won the War on Wabash going 10-0. Friday night and Saturday should be an amazing meet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
