The less awards, the more prestige involved also. Not saying we won't add some, but right now we have a good number of them. Ah, that makes sense. Much respect to you guys and for creating this platform. piscis1956 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 Love seeing the Sawyer Miller vs Breyden Bailey match on this list. That’s easily my biased favorite match of all time. blueandgold and FCFIGHTER170 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how I feel about the Wilson/James semi-state championship match. 2013-14 and 2014-15 were two years of absolutely incredible wrestling, both on the state level and nationally. The Wilson/James 6-5 semi-state match was near perfect. It had the drama, excitement, scrambles, technique, and attitude. The only match better than it that year was LeCount vs. Forte at Bellmont. A true five-star match and was miles better than their finals match at state. The score was 6-5 in the third before LeCount shook him off and cradled him up for the fall.
