These are just for fun, I am sure I missed something somewhere ,enjoy!



106

1.) Beric Jordan ,SPG

2.) Logan Dean , Bethel-tate

3.)Jordan Miller, Hamilton ross

4.)Mason Kelsch , Norwood

5.) Konner Blaney, Marengo highland

6.) Mythias Stuckey, Wilmington



I think this the 3rd or 4th weakest weight class excluding possible 4 timer Jordan, i think there’s a chance 3-6 can be any way switched around.



113

1.)Brogan Tucker, SPG

2.) Brady Fisher, London

3.) Aj Kimble, Licking Valley

4.) Jovanni Greco, Hamilton Ross

5.) Gage Anderson, Franklin

6.) Blake Niehaus, Batavia



i think the top 4 spots here are on lock. 5/6 could be flipped but fisher is tough and so is kimble, i do see tucker scoring bonus points in all 4 matches. Tucker looking for his first title this coming march. fisher and kimble have very good chances to place too.



120

1.) Malachi O’Leary, Wyoming

2.) Aiden King, Bishop Hartley

3.) Colt Ryan, Graham

4.) Wyatt Hinton, Norwood

5.) Jimmy Lalezas, Taylor

6.) Xavier Pierce, Jonathan Alder



These district finals are going to be good, O’Leary , King, and Ryan could all win here. There is no clear winner here. I also believe colt ryan could place at state. malachi and aiden king will place imo.



126

1.) Matt Ellis , Waynesville

2.) Brandon Sauter, Batavia

3.) Bryce Kohler, SPG

4.) Cooper Rathburn, Bishop Hartley

5.) Zack Lopez, Columbus Desales

6.) Roman Jones, Dayton CJ



This may be the deepest weight at this district, I moved some guys around, i think the top 5 at this district could beat the other on any given day, there is no clear winner imo. i am a big ellis fan, his ride is tough, sauter is very strong and has solid technique like as well.



132

1.) David McClelland, Columbus Desales

2.) Alijah Stevens, Licking Valley

3.) Ky Emmerson, River Valley

4.) Caleb Kennington, Kenton Ridge

5.) Carson Hibbs, Wilmington

6.) Tate Bein, Batavia



This weight class is a tough weight class at wilmington, although i do think the top 4 are on lock. Returning state runner up stevens, has lost to a guy or two on here but stevens is nasty on his feet and can take down anyone in the state, i am excited to see the stevens and mcclelland match up, imo stevens can take this district.



138

1.)Conner Roback, Licking Valley

2.) Hayden Hughes, SPG

3.) Nathan Kulbe, Batavia

4.) Thane Mccoy, Wilmington

5.) Aiden Rush, Columbus Desales

6.) Kaden Miller, Marengo Highland



This is the second weakest weight in this district, my projected district champ is ranked 8th according to borofan. I do think Hughes can make the finals here.



144

1.) Nolan Gessler, SPG

2.) Mitchell Younger, Bishop Watterson

3.) Owen Eagan, Columbus Desales

4.) Devyn Boyd, Licking Valley

5.) Owen Crabtree, Jonathan Alder

6.) Zeran Brady, Valley View



A few people including borofan are taking younger over gessler, but you have to prove youre the best, by beating the best. younger imo is 2nd best in his class behind blaze, but i think gessler will beat younger in district finals and state finals. i think 3-5 could be any way. this match is going to be fireworks. Gessler ends his hs career as a 2 timer



150

1.) Eli Jacks, SPG

2.) Alex Pitsch, Monroe

3.) Oliver Byerly, Jonathan Alder

4.) Zach Myers, Valley View

5.) Braden Rolf, Clinton Massie

6.) Nathan Barker, Milton Union



I think this is one of the weaker weights at wilmington, i take Jack’s over pitsch, pitsch has been out majority of the year, don’t be surprised if barker or rolf take the 4th spot from myers. this is myers spot to win with a win over barker 4-2 earlier this year.



157

1.) Gunner Cramblett, SPG

2.) Antwaun Burns, London

3.) Cody Matthews, Marengo Highland

4.) Hank Williams, Bethel Tate

5.) Andrew Barford, Columbus Desales

6.) Ethan Gugliemi, Granville



This may be the deepest weight class at wilmington, Cramblett is a monster at 57, burns and matthews could battle this out for 2nd and 3rd. williams has been here before he just has to execute in this loaded bracket.



165

1.) Dylan Newsome, Licking Valley

2.)Luke James, SPG

3.) Lincoln Shulaw, Columbus Desales

4.) Thad Stuckey, Wilmington

5.) Ryan Blanton, River Valley

6.) Eli Grandstaff, Marengo Highland



i think Newsome is a clear winner this is a decent weight class, newsome has a chance at a state title. 2 freshman shulaw and james is go to be an awesome match. stuckey and blanton will battle for that 4th spot.



175

1.) Zack Burroughs, SPG

2.) Zane Panetta, Blanchester

3.) Ryan Iams, Hamilton Ross

4.) Cameron Hickey, Granville

5.) Marshall Froehlich, Columbus Desales

6.) Trenton Dunham, Eaton



This is by far the weakest weight at wilmington, burroughs will be the district champ here no question, 2-5 are all up for grabs here at 175.



190

1.) Carson Miller, Granville

2.) Evan Lykins, SPG

3.) Kaiden Starks, Badin

4.) Dillon Davidson, Taylor

5.) Will Heisler, Jonathan Alder

6.) Jude Hess, Hamilton Ross



This weight is top heavy, i think miller or lykins can take this weight dependent on who shows up, i had trouble choosing the 6th ranked guy here. michael’s from eaton is a big hm here.



215

1.) Max Shulaw, Columbus Desales

2.) Carter Neves, SPG

3.) Elijah Emmons, Badin

4.) Antonio Burns, London

5.) Jeffery Blair, CJ

6.) Zach Hagedorn, Monroe



This is a very DEEEP weight class, i had a lot of trouble deciding 1 & 2 here, i think neves will win but my point earlier would be invalidated when i said to be the champ you have to beat the champ, shulaw with the most recent win. I do think Carter wins this though. The Top 3 from this district will place and a chance #4 places as well.



285

1.) Nolan Neves, SPG

2.) Thadd Huff, London

3.) Wellington Lowe, Trotwood-Madison

4.) Brett Brooks, Wilmington

5.)Bruce Wagers, Wyoming

6.) Chris Reber, Monroe
Nolan takes this district with some challenge by huff, that kid is tough. but i do not think he’s touched in any other match though. neves looking for his first state title. wagers could sneak in there and so could reber.

This may be the deepest weight at this district, I moved some guys around, Jones from CJ is a big honorable mention i think the top 5 at this district could beat the other on any given day, there is no clear winner imo. i am a big ellis fan, his ride is tough, sauter is very strong and has solid technique like as well.

Washington CH is not in this district. The Southeast sectional was moved out of this District 2 years ago.
 
Didn't think CH was at this district either. Missing a few guys imo.
106: Moser (Monroe)
132/138?: Foster (Ross) I think 4-6 is pretty open here
285: Brooks (Wilmington) SQ last year. Heavyweight should be a fun bracket to watch this year.

Yeah, I agree that there are a few more solid kids missing at 132 and 138 that could wreak havoc on those top 6 lists. But, that's why we show up and wrestle ... the final results never lie!
 
Glad you did this, always a good read. I always find it interesting how different people perceive a district. There is a couple weight classes I think are very solid and you think they are light and visa versa. For example I think 132 and 138 are almost mirror images of each other in terms of strength and depth. I feel like 165 is pretty open and one of the easier(easier not best term but you know what I mean) wgt classes. Regardless it is still fun to read and I look forward to 2 good days of wrestling/hand wringing. Hoping my mini can punch his ticket.

where would moser fit in?
 
I'd say bottom half--4/5 spot
Moser was pinned by Kelsch at Coaches Classic per Baumspage, I'm not sure who else he's seen so far this year. I think he is more around the 5/6 spot.

Edit*
I also see that Moser beat Stuckey 14-4 then 9-3 at the Edgewood tournament.

I think 1 and 2 at 132 are a lock but the rest are going to be crazy lots of different style match ups. I would put kennigton at 3 Morris at 4 emmerson 5 foster 6
 
They haven’t matched up head to head, but Dozer from Bloom Carroll placed higher than Heisler at Alder’s Tournament and Sally George. Should be a good match at Sectionals if they match up. Closest to a head to head they have is common opponent who Heisler lost to 6-5 and Dozer pinned.
 
Out for now, or out for the season? I hope he's back for the post-season because he's a fun Freshman to watch. Big upside!
Very fun to watch 126 and 132 are so competitive seems a lot are struggling with injuries I still can't believe we won't get to see nick hart again
 
Just rumors but I heard he broke his neck in state finals last year and won't be able to ever wrestle again heart breaking kid is a hammer hope it's not true
 
285: Jacks (Lakewood) should be in there as well-- 3/4 spot. He won at Eaton (over brooks). I don't know the last time this district had so many competent heavy's. The top two are in a class of their own, but 3-7 seems very tight. 215 Looks like a bear as well, lots of depth. Cheers to the big guys.

I know that’s it true cause he has wrestled all off season and I even think in iron man so couldn’t of been state’s last year but I don’t know if he has got hurt after that!!!

Yeah I've heard he was transferring to Marysville then he was hurt his state finals match last year he was dq'd for illegal slam that looked like he knocked himself out I've been wondering what is really going on love watching him wrestle
