Coplen187 Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Rochester is interesting as the top 3 in my opinion come down to all heavyweights. Damon Hummel 94' https://indianamat.com/index.php?/wrestler_detail.html/graduated/damon-hummel-r4350/ SQ 189, 2nd 189, 2nd Hwt, 3rd Hwt Brady Beck 24' 6th 220, 7th 220, 5th HWT, 2023 IHPO Champ, Rochester all time wins (164) Marshall Fishback 22' Rochester’s only state champ It depends on what metrics you value most. I think Marshall takes it. Honorable mention to James Samuels at HWT. First Rochester wrestler to win the Al Smith beating Mike Pinter in 2001. Hopefully in 2 years I change my answer to Brant Beck.

Damon Hummel was getting it done back when there was not a 215 weight class. If there had been, I think you can make the case that he would have been a 2x state champion.

Just my opinion but Damon Hummel is hands down the best wrestler in Rochester history. If 215 was a thing he is easily a two time champ.

Caleb Spires Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 (edited) Feels a bit sacrilegious to not say teammate/friend Nick Crume (Q, 3, 3, 1), and while I predict he’d win the head to head more often than he’d lose, I have to choose Hunter Watts (6, 2, 1, 3) since it says “most accomplished.” Only Jimmie with a placement all four years and only to make it under the lights twice.

If 215 was a thing he is easily a two time champ. I agree. If the answer is best, he is it. 215 existing the year after he graduated is as tragic as Ball State (where he played varsity football all 4 years) eliminating wrestling in 93'. Not sure he would have wrestled there, but he never even had a chance. Edited February 22 by Coplen187 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
