Sig40 Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 (edited) A bunch of indiana kids battled in East Lansing yesterday at the Grappler Fall Classic. -KT Nelson wrestled tough in the 105lb weight class taking 5th place. -Roberson and Watson both placed in the 112lb bracket taking 8th and 6th. -Mendez and Littell both dominated opposite sides of the 125lb bracket until they both took losses to a tough Ohio kid. -130lb bracket had 8th grader Barr take 8th after losing to eventual champ in quarters. -135lb had several tough Indiana kids, but only had two place. Campbell lost in SV to #10 ranked Edmond(MI) and then later beat #20 ranked Rivera(FL). Campbell also beat Kreitzer 2-0. Campbell placed 3rd and Kreitzer took 7th. -Rooks fell in the 140lb finals -Lee lost in the 145lb finals to #14 ranked wrestler Whitaker -Dickens went 4-2 placing 5th in 152lb bracket -160lb bracket had 4 wrestlers do really well with LaPlace taking 8th, Washington taking 2nd, South taking 3rd, and Ruble losing before placement. Washington had a SV win against South to make finals Laplace had a 5-3 loss against the number 1 ranked kid in the country(Facundo) and then looked to have a bad injury against Bailey from Illinois. South was able to take out Bailey in the next match. -171lb bracket had 2 guys place. Calhoun took 6th and Walker fell in the finals. Walker had a huge tournament taking out the 10th ranked wrestler in the country(Kai Bele-FL). Walker opened some eyes for sure. I saw 2 big time college programs chatting him up after the win. Overall a pretty good showing for Indiana. Most of these same young men or headed to Super32, so hopefully they keep putting the country on notice about these Hoosiers.

Jayruss Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Lee looks as if he’s taken the next step. Should be a title contender Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
