While I will agree it will ge tough for Hipp to beat VanHook but to say "No way will Hipp even come close" is very dangerous. Hipp had Hall on his back at Mt. Vernon Turkey Classic and came close to getting a pin and we all know at this stage anything can happen but like I said, on paper it will be a tough match for Hipp to win and he will for sure be a huge underdog.
I can't believe no one is putting Damon McEllhiney from Princeton in their top 4 at 125. I know him personally and he is a solid wrestler who has been ranked the last several weeks and has beaten some tough kids. I know he lost by major decision to the Castle kid at sectional but he also lost to the same Castle kid by 1 point at Bloomington. I see him in the semis with a tough match against MD but he should finish top 3.
I like Sims to win 145 and I'll take Stein over Weiss this week. I've seen these two wrestle probably 5 times and I saw last week's match too. Kudos to Weiss for bringing it but I think Stein will get him back this week and it won't surprise me to see them matchup in the finals over the next 3 Saturdays.
