overtime Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 I was thinking what are some of everyones favorite moments from the state tournament that you never saw coming. Two of mine are. 1) Wildeman EMD picking up and slamming Jimmy Shultz Mish. for the fall state semi finials. 2) Greg Wagner getting lateraled to his back under the lights and getting stuck.

Caleb Spires Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 I've only been to the last 3 so bear with me... Petrov completely exploding against Todd in the second period was very unexpected. Even if some people thought Petrov would pull out the upset, I don't think anyone would have expected Todd to get pinned by him while losing 6-2(?).

Wade McClurg Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Greg Wagner getting lateraled to his back under the lights and getting stuck. Wagner got lateraled in the last 15 seconds of the match while being up 5-2.... He didn't get pinned, but he did get thrown for 2 takedown + 3 back points... to lose 7-5 to Jason Fryar who began wrestling as a sophomore in high school. Fryar was 6' 11", just a super big dude. I've only been to the last 3 so bear with me... Petrov completely exploding against Todd in the second period was very unexpected. Even if some people thought Petrov would pull out the upset, I don't think anyone would have expected Todd to get pinned by him while losing 6-2(?). Paulie Petrov was a killer and still is, considering the fact that he is a Division 1 varsity wrestler for Bucknell. He was blessed with some God given talent, but he works extremely hard at everything he does. A very motivated person in the classroom, as well as on the wrestling mat. But.... I will admit I was surprised the way Petrov was able to dominate Mason Todd in the state semi finals as seniors, because he dropped a 3-2 decision to Todd the previous year in the state semi finals. I think it's a testament to the way he worked all off season and prepared for that 3rd weekend in February his senior year... he left no stone unturned!

bbulldog152 Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Pat Day's 11 second pin over Jonathan Seger in the semi-finals of state at 215 in 2006. I was at state that year and I was paying attention to the Edwards Johnson match and the pin happen so fast I didn't see what happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

overtime Posted August 18, 2013 Author Share Posted August 18, 2013 Howe vs Walpole Despite the fact I had Howe winning this match. I never thought he was going to cut him with the clock winding down in the 3rd after tying the match late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoachM Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Palmore beating caughling or Mendez beating Uhl who beat Hernandez in the semis. Blanton beating binion and Malloy the last two years, huge. Fuqua throwing Boomsma while down in the semis, we could go all day in just the last few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dwilly Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Friday night match 1999 I believe. Eric Keith Portage ranked #1 44-0 is losing bad to Cassidy Wilson - Oak Hill ranked #4, then gets spladled & pinned in the second period I think.

Devils27 Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Eric Keith also won his state title in 2OT. They went out of bounds with 3 seconds left he is down and hits a text book escape to win it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
