Regionrat1 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 119 Is one ugly place to be !!

rebelsfan Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 The upper bracket where my grandson {Kieffer}landed looks really tough. He starts off with Raley the state champ@103 last year and then faces last years runner-up Kenny or another state qualifier in Petrov.After those matches it stays tough as he goes up against another state runner-up Eppert and or state placer in Brooks.Then when he gets to the final it's another state champ in Brandon Wright. I don't see Wright getting upset,if he does that is one tuff wrestler. There are 2 wrestlers in the upper half of the 119 bracket I did not see last year at the state tour. Another poster had it correct--this weight class is insane! If he wins this weight class I think I'll take him to Cozumel for Spring break! He will have earned it!!

VanSkyock Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Prolly the hardest weight class to wrestle through this year. Wright def has the easiest trip through, but the top bracket is just stacked... if brooks beats eppert, then i see kenney going to the finals from this side of the bracket...

Maximus Decimus Meridius Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 After watching Johns beat Raley on Saturday. This kid is on a mission for a State Title............ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southernfan Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 That would be a big upset if he can beat Wright. Look for the winner of Kieffer/Raley to beat Kenney. 119 is talented from top to bottom. There are 5 maybe 6 that could win it all if it is there day on Saturday. A few of these should have cut to 112 but to be the best, they say you have to beat the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbulldog152 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 just think if Richey wouldn't have gained so much or t-shirts made the cut. this is already a tough weight class though. sucks for the looser of Raley/Kieffer esp Raley he might be taking the Galka carrear, which would still be a good route to go.

MatChick76 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 I wouldn't count Johns from Reitz out...he looks better every time I see him wrestle. 119 is a scary place to be...but I bet that's where some of the best matches happen. Good luck to all these fine wrestlers!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach Brown Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 119 is a loaded weight class. It will break down as follows: Wright, Eppert, Brooks, Kieffer, Kenney, Johns, Bradley, and Bevans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marines2 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 This class is always one to watch year after year. Lots of good quality 103, 112, and returning 119 gang up here. Best of luck to everyone and whoever wins it will definitely have earned it.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck to all these fine wrestlers!!! I agree. I haven't been able to see many matches this year but from what I've seen Johns looks ready to take on the world right now so I wish him the best of luck this weekend.

catfish Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Johns is laying in the weeds after this weekend. Wrestled great against Raley and looking for a rematch against Wright. If I remember correctly, he lost by one to the state champ Wright last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fire77 Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 top half of the bracket. man!!! too bad. best of luck to all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justdo^it135 Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Y2, I think any individual who pick'ems end up being perfectly correct (1st-8th) at 119 deserves an indianamat shirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
