Kansas Wrestling Forums General Discussion High School Triple crown winners

How many of the fab 5 won high school states as well as freestyle and greco roman states last year-
I think Moeder is the only one. Any others? I know that Rogers and Nichter have not chosen to wrestle freestyle and greco- Cokely and Madl have proven themselves at Fargo but Cokeley did not win triple crown last year

Who are the leading candidates for the Chief's Fab five of next year?......Cokely, Moeder, Deshazer, Tanenbaum, Pursel....?

you gotta have reece conklin get SOME mention... even though he isnt in the toughest weight class in the world he is still VERY impressive

Bo has won 4 triple crowns but will not win anymore as he has chosen to not wrestle Greco any more. (who knows if he would have beat the other kids in his weight anyway). That said however, I would give Reece a nod before Bo or any other Soph. Reece in one impressive son-of-gun!!!! We talked him into going to schoolboy duals two years ago. He had never wrestled FS or Greco...He lost his first Greco match by grabbing the legs and never lost again in either style in over 20some matches of national competition. (some great wrestlers stuggled to have a .500 record). Doing what he does in a upper weight is more impressive than anything. He is a freak and a awesome kid. He doesn't cut much weight...In my opinion he is the #1 Soph. in KS.

There are many other Jr's that are probably ahead of them however.

Mike Pursel

Head's up Bo, maybe we'll see Reece take a run at the international level! He's a great kid who gave back to wrestling at the novice level this year and wants to continue to help the little ones!
