Kansas Wrestling Forums General Discussion Kids Folkstyle Who's Tough?

Well the Season is up and rolling now, the weights shakin down, What are the tough classes 10u,12u,8u,6u? What are the tough weights? What are the best matches to catch? Any big suprises?

Think a good match that might occur several times throughout the year will be Dylan Newton-Jackson Hartley at 8 under 80.

I am a big fan of a lot of the kids in the 12 and under 80-84 range. I don't know about the rest of the state and can only base my opinions on what I see week in and week out. I think there are 6 or 7 state qualifiers scrapping it out every week in the wichita area. 10 and under 67 has a ton of talent in it also. I could go on and on but won't because I am borderline obsessed with this stuff.

This Bracket Happened Saturday in Cimarron.
10U 85
1. Pedro Ordonez Hugoton (3rd place finisher at state)
2.Ryan Nava Ulysses (state champion)
3.Quinton Lapointe SWG (state runner-up)
4.Joshua Seabolt Gray County (state champion)

Whatever age/weight my kids are in always seems tough. This year 12/under 76 and 8/under 52. At 12/under 76, you will have Cole Moses, Tyler Price, Logan Terrill, Marc Guerrero, Prieto from Greater Gold is an absolute stud,then theres Dipman,Burnett, Garcia, Kasitz & hopefully Alex Cavanaugh will be in the mix too. Anyone I left out forgive me, but this is a tough one. Whoever wins Distrcit 2 will definately earn it. By my count theres at least 7 state champs out of the above mentioned.

Who is all at 12u and 90 or 95lbs?

I know there is more out there, but just off the top of my head that we know or have wrestled this year. Forgive me if i'm missing any and I know I am. Looking forward to State.

Seabolt is at 85? He must have grown a bunch over the summer!!

10u 64 was a great bracket last Saturday at the JOCO Classic. Tate Steele and Connor Ward had an excellent match with Ward winning for the first time over Steele 2-0. Parenti won over Ward 3-1 in the finals and it was a great match as well!

In 10u 67, Hunter Skeens looks tough this year, I believe he was a state placer last year.

how bout nate fowler at 10 AND UNDER HWT AT USJOC. that was incredible

Ya
The JOC 10U outstanding wrestler was from Kansas.
Too bad Nate can't wrestle in Kansas cause he's too big.
This young man is over 5 feet tall and 190 pounds. That's too big for Ks state competition.
He toed the line in OK with no fear and he was pinning 240 pound kids in the 1st period.

Awesome Job Nate!!!

10u 82 looks tough, dakota motter (won JOC, multi state placer), brandon mlekus (multi state champ, and national placer), nick lucas, (multi state placer), jalin harper is a stud, cal bloomfield (last year 8u state champ), drogemeier (sp) rossville, (state placer), just to name a few from district 1 & 2.

There are some tough kids in the 10u 90 and 95 also

10U 90 has Aryes Jones and one of the Luellen boys should be a fun bracket to watch during the season

Who are some of the kids at 8U 61 ?

12U 64 Holden Butler dont count him out

8u 61 Mills,Ormsby,Rylant.....?

I would bet on 10U Dakota Motter from Andover Central, he will win State @ whatever weight he wrestles.

he's a stud for sure.
