Great write up Navy. Just for clarification, Sheffer is a 3x state champ. BUT only a 1x winner at the EMD tourney which was this year.

Ran into the buzz saw named Chad Red two times in a row in the finals.

Edit: I stand corrected (lost to Duncan instead of Red one time)

Why didn't he wrestle ?

Flu like symptoms according to mama, 5 lbs over night before according to everyone else lol. Christmas dinner and break got to him. He was a middle school state champ last season (beating his brother in the finals at 105).

There were lots of exciting semi final and wrestle back matches.

 

Garcia and escalara were likely the most dominating wrestlers of a respective weight class. I always enjoy Gunnar Larson. That is a big boy that can flat move

Got to meet Gunnar's parents. Talk about a proud set of parents right there. Super nice and kid couldnt have been any nicer either. Good luck to him at West Point!

Kid looked incredible. Luigs hands down the best wrestler of the tournament (with that 106 pounder right behind)

Ranked #12 pound for pound middle schooler and #2 in his weight class. Kids got talent.

Mater Dei needs wins from Boots, Parkinson, and Wilderman to have a chance to beat Union, with Union losing at 170, 182, and 285 as well.

Nice win by Luigs over Ervin

Yes it was

Heading into the finals matches, it is going to be a battle between Union, Mater Dei, St. X, and Avon.

Team scores are going to be close!

great write-up!

 

escalara will not get past hinderliter or rioux...

Hmm. Don't be so certain about something when you know nothing about this kid. Just teched Hinderliter. Maybe he's a little better than you think Hook

The Willman/K. Egli match was great. Willman pulled out the come from behind win 8-7.

Gabe Adams Union 113 not wrestling. 182 has potential for a great finals match along with 132

Finally the good questions are being asked

Best question yet.

Actually Father Ryan (Nashville, TN) visits Union on Friday. Maybe MD middle school but definitely not high school visiting Union.

I don't see Ervin at 170 winning it. But I do think Saul at 132 takes the crown. Also, Sam Bacon (union 120) just took the top ranked kid in Ky to overtime. He could place high on the podium at the Holiday Classic. Any reason on why memorial is not competing this year? Can't wait to see this tournament.

Any results or good matches so far?

Evansville Reitz, Evansville Harrison, Evansville Memorial, Louisville (KY) Trinity, Louisville (KY) Fern Creek, Union County (KY), Booneville?, South Spencer?, Southridge?, North Posey?....I know Tell City, Heritage Hills, and Forest Park all used to go but dropped out throughout the years. 

Seriously, how many Ervin kids are there?  Are some of these cousins or did Mama and Papa Ervin not have cable TV the last 20 years?

On this team, the three Ervin's are brothers (Jr. Saul, and Fr. twins Micah and Mathias). But in the past many of them have been cousins. Papa and Mama had 4 boys and 2 girls, then those all had approximately 1000 kids lol. There was an article in the Courier-Press a few years ago about this family.
