busstogate Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Prairie Heights and Busco might be slight favorites, with Fairfield, Westview, West Noble, Lakeland, and Angola right behind them. The team race should be the closest it has been in some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y2CJ41 Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Angola is the favorite this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadlock37 Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Churubusco has the potential ! They have 4 or 5 solid kids who could give them points for this tournament ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
busstogate Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 I forgot about them in the NECC. Oops. They have enough to change things dramatically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y2CJ41 Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 To win this conference you need depth. A team like 'Busco has the horses, but they don't have the depth. They finished second last year with those horses, but were far behind Prairie Heights who had the depth. Prairie Heights has some good wrestlers and some depth, but I don't think they have a 215 or heavyweight and that will hurt them. Angola or West Noble looks to be the teams to beat this year simply based on depth. Of course this tournament could be won in the seeding meeting by drawing forfeits or easy opponents in rat tail matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

funk Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 I look for Busco to make the run this year. I think they might be the better tournament team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y2CJ41 Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Now that Prairie Heights has beaten Angola do you feel differently about them being a favorite to win NECC? The NECC is very even throughout and there is no team that is dominant. Busco has some great individuals, but after their top guys they don't have much. They will definitely score a lot of points, but probably won't get much help from their second tier guys. To win this tournament you have to have a solid team top to bottom. You will need to place 12 kids in the top 6 to win. You don't necessarily need champs, but you need lots of kids to score points. Angola topped Busco at the Westview Invite, so i think they will top Busco in another meet under tournament scoring. Prairie Heights looks like they may be the team to beat now, but Angola won't go down easily. It will take whatever team shows up on Saturday and wrestles the best. Both teams need their second tier kids to step up and score points with pins and placements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cougar_boi Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 How will 103 be contested? Central Noble has that locked up. And 130 might be the deepest weight class but West Noble's kid has put in the time and had great practice partners. The title is his. Team title goes to Praire Heights anchored by there 12 pounder.
