This thread makes me laugh. Congrats on the wins guys. Lots of wrestlers have 100+ wins. Most don't post about it.

Only once and he got pinned in less than a minute. The year before he lost in the semi to Keegan Duncan(Tr). The other time(2013) he made the final, he lost to DJ Smith

Hope he gets to feeling better, better now than later.
No disrespect to this wrestler or Kentucky wrestling in general cause they have some talent and all work hard at their respective weights . Anything possible when I say this. Most of you don't realize I've been waiting over 5 years on a Kentucky HS Wrestler or a MS since Kentucky allows them to wrestle to even score on Asa . This list includes Kentucky HS State Champ (Yost), Runner up (Wheeler) & 3rd (Tucker) and the list goes on & on . All cut points . So he's has wrestled Kentucky best with great success. We'll be there next year probably not at the same weight though lol. To maybe face Kentucky best .

I have seen Escalara wrestle for a couple years now (Coached against him). He is a very solid kid. I know that in 2015 he beat a very tough Tyler Conley from Avon at a tournament 4-3. Both are 8th graders. Maybe we see that match up next year. Also saw him at middle school nationals beat Owen Sego from Indian Creek 6 to 5 last year, in a great match. But, I agree with Garcia. Don't think that he can hang with Asa yet. Not taking anything away from the kid... because he did look great. I was very impressed with Union County's drags and set ups. I also liked they way they hit Turks. Would almost cut a kid... then reach down... pull the ankle... and get a deep Turk. Pretty slick stuff.

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).
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!

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

Luigs looked really good. I'm just shocked how good Zeke (UC 106) looked for being an 8th grader.

Luigs is on a mission, he's underrated , bump that man up in the rankings

Their 113 is just as good. That would have been fun to see him vs Garcia.

Luigs and Ervin was one heck of a match. Lots of action and good scrambles.

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

Escalara majors Rioux. One tough wrestler.

And hes only an 8th grader now.

Avon Sam Osho over #12 (#1 seed) Franklin Reese 4-2 OT

Escalara is very good.  had a great youth career and looks like he is transitioning well into high school.

White with a pin

the reason it took so long was because it was a TIE.   and they were trying to get confirmation from the IHSAA if they had a tie break policy in place.   they ended up giving the trophy to Avon but then found out on Tuesday that there was NOT a tie break and they awarded both Avon and MD co-championships.

It's funny you ask if they didn't have cable TV when the family fortune I believe is from running cable TV to almost or all of Western Kentucky.  Pretty prominent family outside of wrestling I believe.
