Re: Braxton Amos

We should be thankful to see such elite talent in this state not have a measuring contest about who is better. Both kids are class acts. Both are elite WORLD talent. We are beyond blessed to be wrestling fans and have them come through in such a close timeframe. I can’t wait to see Braxton at 197 wr...

I saw one school had lost 10/11 first round matches. All 4 heavyweights from Region 4 won last night also.

152 will have the most depth, with 6 of the top 8 wrestlers from the soon to be released rankings wrestling in it.


While the winner of the region might be merely a formality, 2-4 are going to be a dog fight.

Re: Hardest Weight Classes in Region 4 AAA

182 has 4 out of the top 6.

Hwt has 3 out of the top 7

220 while one sided still has a kid from Ripley who any other year walks away with a state title.

Re: AAA Regions

I think we all know why 220 cleared out but I also don’t see those clearing out are going to win titles at the weights they went to. Hwt is tough on top and not giving away a state title this year.

Re: AAA Regions

One misstep doesn’t show lack of knowledge. And I agree with the post. Every team in region 4 would benefit being in another region. By benefit I mean increase their chances at qualifying more kids.

Re: Predictions For Region 4 AAA Tournament

HWT is the only class that might create some chaos. 1 and 2 should be an epic battle and 3-7 could all beat each other any given night. From what everyone has seen from Haga and Porter they seem to be bulletproof in the state. I like Carder to win at 145 and I’m not opposed to 138 having their rubbe...

Re: Best Head to Head Match of the Season, that Could Be a State Finals Match

Best v Martin will be one for the ages. I also think Porter/Haga. Should see both of them next weekend again and for the first time. Moler and Quiocho could get a 3rd come states.

Re: AAA 285 Rankings

I think the ??? Is pretty accurate. Those 4, I believe, have separated themselves. Porter v Haga will settle 1/2 in a few weeks at Regionals assuming they meet. I think 5-20 are probably capable of beating one another on any given night.
