backagain Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 In about 2 weeks the HHC individual tourney begins. It looks like a lot of teams have changed since the duals, so lets hear some predictions. Team wise, here is what I see: 1/2: Jennings County/Columbus East. This one comes down to which one can field a full team. CE will probably have the most champs but JC will have a lot of placers. I think JC has a slight edge in an individual tournament but it will be very close. Both teams have been impressive this year. 3/4: Jeffersonville/Floyd Central. Jeff is solid with a couple of champs. Not as strong as years past but will do well. FC is the most improved team in the field as they have seen their young wrestlers come around. They will contend for 1st next year but not quite there yet. Slight edge to Jeff for 3rd but I could see FC catching them because we know they peak in January. 5/6/7 Seymour/Madison/New Albany. Young and inexperienced. Huge distance between 4 and 5. 8 BNL. Individuals? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St.Johnson Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Though Madison is young and inexperienced I see them with 3, of their older wrestlers in the finals. Taylor, Adams, and Young. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GUNNY77 Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 I think you are right on the money. Jennings County and Columbus East will battle for the HHC crown, then two weeks later be back at it again battling for the Sectional title. Columbus East finished ninth in the Al Smith while Jennings County has finished 2nd at Jeff Classic behind #3 Mater Dei and 2nd at Mooresville behind #6 Yorktown. Both are very solid, the nod may go to the team with a full roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STARSMAN Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Both will have a full roster and Bass coming back into the lineup poses a new threat at JC having another champ. I think that CE has the edge as long as their wrestlers not in the finals place well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would agree with that. Those are three quality wrestlers. Is Adams going 140 or 145? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PreparetoWin Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 I think the question is what will CE lineup be for the conference? Are they stronger with Reickers @ 119,125 and 130 or @125, 130, 135? My predictions for HHC if (Ce bumps 112-135) 103 Fc vs Jc 112 Jeff vs Jc 119 Ce vs Jc 125 Ce vs Jc 130 Ce vs Na 135 Ce vs Jc 140 Ma vs Ce (Schuler) 145 Jeff vs Ce (Stillanger) 152 Jeff vs Jc 160 Jc vs Ce 171 Jc vs Ce 189 Jc vs Na 215 Jc vs Ma 285 Jc vs Ce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grappler119 Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 I agree that the line-up adjustments will make the difference. I think Columbus East and Jennings will be very tight with Jeff right on their heels. Here are my finals picks. 103: Floyd and Columbus East - Kennedy 1st 112: Jeff and Jennings County - Shepherd 1st 119: Madison and Columbus East - Taylor 1st 125: Columbus East and Jennings County - Reiker 1st 130: Columbus East and Jennings County - Reiker 1st 135: Columbus East and Jennings County - Reiker 1st 140: Jeff and Columbus East (unless Adams is down then he will be in the finals) - Shuler 1st or Adams 1st if he is here 145: Jeff and Columbus East (unless Adams is here then he will be in the finals with Weekley) - Weekley 1st 152: Jeff and Jennings County or Columbus East (if Adams is here it will be Jeff and Madison) - Browner 1st or Adams 1st if he is here 160: Jeff and Jennings County - Baldwin 1st (but this will be close) 171: Jennings County and Columbus East (if Brierly is at 171) - Wathen 1st (but will be close) 189: this one is kind of open - maybe New Albany and Jennings County but watch out for Curtley of Jeff who is down to 189 - Curtley 1st 215: Jennings County and Jeff - Bass 1st (but will be a good one with Pratt) 285: Jennings County and Columbus East but Dewitt of Jeff could be the spoiler here (he wrestled Collett tough at the Jeff Classic and is improving every week) - Collett 1st I see Columbus East with 8-9 in the finals and 3-4 champs, Jennings County with 8-9 and 4 champs, Jeff with 6-7 and 4 champs, Madison with 2 and 1-2 champs, Floyd Central with 1 and 1 champ, and New Albany with 1. The difference will come down to where the rest of each team places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this could change if they have common opponenets cuz Carlile beat Holwager. Who is Jeffs 160? I watched that kid from Ce and he is a pretty solid wreslter.

grappler119 Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 I think Carlisle will get the first seed because he beat Holwager and Holwager beat Taylor. So Holwager and Taylor would meet in the semi-finals (depends on seeding criteria though). Jeffs 160 is Marlin. His only loss as HHC duals was to Baldwin by 2.

His only loss as HHC duals was to Baldwin by 2. 1st criteria is defending champ at same weight. Doesn't apply here. Carlile will be #1 seed because head to head is the deciding criteria. Carlile beat Holwager and Holwager beat Taylor. Taylor will be #3 seed. Depends on Marlin's overall winning percentage. David Johnson will be #2 0r #3 seed. He placed 6th at the Al Smith.

TripleB Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 We can't field a full team because of a single class tournament. Our potential kid said he was scared of a 300+ person bracket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
