Not so much a loaded bracket, but a look back at a bracket I did from last year. Last year I took some of South Adams’ middle schoolers to ISWA state. I was excited to see how our now starting 126 Will Patterson would do because he was very good as a youth wrestler and in middle school, but didn’t see statewide competition that often. He ended up going 1-2. First loss was against Ty Henderson, who I knew was good and a ticket rounder, but now is viewed differently as a state runner up. Next match on the backside was a kid from Eastern Hancock. I told him I couldn’t name a single guy from that school and they historically haven’t produced studs, and I have never heard of this kid, so how tough could he be? Well let’s just say I was shocked at Will losing so bad to this kid, but he did look the part of a stud. Turns out that was Bradyn Volz, eventually sixth placer. Left a little disappointed in the results that day, to only look back and realized we wrestled some absolute hammers.
