Not sure if anyone on this board ever went to the old Garfield Hts. Sectional back in the 90's and early 20's. That was a blood bath. Don't believe there are any sectionals like that was nowadays.
Of course there aren't going to be. The super-draft and pods assure that there is some modicum of balance across the sites.
There are only 38 schools for 4 sectionals in NE OH D1 district at Hoover (4/7 sectionals). Keep in mind, NE OH D1 should only be at six sectionals, instead of seven; however, Central Ohio chose to not take an extra sectional, since that sectional would have been shipped to a mixed district (Perrysburg).
Looking at where Wadsworth would range from not favored to win to having a challenge.
106 - Luke Green (Aurora) beat Blake Franz for 3rd at the SLT
113 - Johnny Green (Aurora) won the SLT, while Mellon was 3rd
138 - Kyle Bizjak (Aurora) placed higher than the Wadsworth starter (who at the time was the older Jardine)
165 - A.J. Dolph (Hoover) is a returning state qualifier, unless he drops into 157, which would then put him second to Earnest
215 - Teddy Gregory (Stow) will be the favorite, SLT runner-up to Vanadia and pinned Blackburn in the pool stage; Cody Fair (Massillon) will also be a contender, though he lost to Blackburn at North Canton despite out-placing him there.
