Wrestler07guy Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 The 106 lb weight class is stacked on one side of the bracket. I hate how they do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mathewsz7 Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 stacked a little more from 1 side to the other, but I feel that 106 is just stacked as a weigh class, I think any of the 4 kids that reach he semis have a decent shot of winning it all....If I have to pick 1 tho, I will take little Paulie Konrath to win it all....

headlock83 Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 After watching Bailey at the team state tournament, there is no way I would bet against him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1prouddad Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 This weight class alone is worth the price of admission Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XCard Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 I agree mathewsz7, the bottom definitely seems to be the tougher of the two sides, but overall I don't see how you can really spread that out anymore other than some of the kids being geographically located somewhere else. Like I said in an earlier post, Saturday morning may start off with a bang if the rankings hold chalk. Possible match ups are: #11 Long v. #8 White #4 Rietz v. #3 Egli #1 Konrath v. #6 Hildebrandt(former#1) #2 Bailey v. #5 Cummings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XCard Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 After watching Bailey at the team state tournament, there is no way I would bet against him. All he has done this year is beat everyone put in front of him. Can you be a sleeper in a weight class that you are ranked #2? Definitely not counting him out, but I don't think I want to make any wagers on this weight class. There are about 5 guys in my opinion that can win this weight class on Saturday.

RegionRoyalty Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Here's a couple results from the last time these guys have wrestled in youth tournaments ISWA State 2013 Quarterfinal: Colton Cummings (Region Wrestling Academy) over Breyden Bailey (Columbus East Wrestling Club) (Dec 5-3) 1st Place Match: Drew Hildebrandt (Penn Wrestling Club) over Paul Konrath (PAWS Elite Wrestling Club) (SV-1 6-4) Cummings and Hildebrant have split this season, with Cummings winning at Al Smith and Hildebrandt winning at Semi-State, both close matches decided in the final seconds. Konrath and Bailey may not be the locks some people think they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ontherise219 Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 I'm really excited for that possible reitz Egli match up both these guy are huge for this weight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INDIANAWRESTLER Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Egli and Konrath in the finals. after watching Paul he impressed me but Paul won the first time, then egli, then Paul, is Egli due to repeat the cycle when it really counts? I think yes. Paul got a tougher draw then Egli with the win. there are no locks but Egli has 2 losses, 2 to Konrath. Konrath has 1 at 106, to Egli. these 2 rule to weight class. gonna be AWESOME.

RegionRoyalty Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Nowhere do I mention a Bailey/Hildebrandt or Egli/Hildebrandt match. The argument was that Cummings has the last win over Bailey and Hildebrandt has the last win over Konrath, so I find it interesting that everyone is writing these two off on this side of the bracket completely, given those results.

NICfan Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 But both Hildebrandt and cummings can win those matches, so you shouldn't write them off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sig40 Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 I was not going to drive down until later in the afternoon Saturday, but because of this weight class I am getting up at 6am to drive down and catch the first round on Saturday. A few of these matches could easily have been the finals match. I'd bet on Reitz or Bailey to win it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midwest Wrestling Fanpage Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Bailey 2014 State Champ!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Bell Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Bailey and Cummings 2nd round, Bailey and Konrath 3rd, Reitz Egli 3rd round as well. These will be AWESOME MATCHES TO WATCH regardless of the bracket situation. Not to mention Hildebrandt vs Konrath in the 2nd round. If I were a betting man, my money would be on Reitz. He just seems like a machine as of late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrestler07guy Posted February 17, 2014 Author Share Posted February 17, 2014 I take back my comment of 106 being a one sided bracket because then I scrolled down and looked at 195. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naphtali Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Konrath is a phenomenal wrestler. I had Egli picked over him this past weekend and that was a huge mistake. If he wrestles the field the way he wrestled Egli then its going to be unlikely he gets beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ontherise219 Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 going with Reitz That reitz Egli winner will be under the lights I think depending on the winner of the other side it could be the champ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
