Kansas Wrestling Forums General Discussion Kids Folkstyle 8 & under 55-58

We're coming to the Wichita classic and I'm wondering who will be the ones to watch out for at these weights?

At 58 there will be Deshazer from TOHK who has placed at several national tournaments and has to be the favorite. Koehn from Pittsburg, and Pursel from Tonganoxie have both only lost twice this year and I am sure there will be others.

At 55 I would think Kriss from Colby (he might be at 58)might be there, McKinney and Roy from Paola, and Dakin (down from 58)from Emporia are some other names that are tough. There is also the kid from Maize.

Those are the ones I can think of from the top of my head. I am sure there are others that I am leaving off and no disrespect to them. I don't know that many kids that are not from the east, my son wrestled Kriss from Colby in the finals at Salina so I do know him.

Where is your kid, 55 or 58 and what is his name, etc?

It will be a great tournament. See you there!

My son is Davey Dolan and he'll be at 58 for this one. We have not been to a Kansas tournament but have heard many good things about the Wichita Tournament. Good luck to everyone!

davey dolan is an excellent wrestler. he beat konnor kriss in the semis at tulsa 5-2. i would consider him the favorite at wichita. konnor won't
be going to wichita.
