Yeah i can see Hoxie is the favorite at this point, they got some really tuff kids coming back from 119-140. Effingham has 7 state qualifiers coming back with 3 of them being placers. Along with them 7 are 4 tuff ones that are varsity for their first years, 1 coming from belleville(171).
Norton and Oakley either lack numbers of quality wrestlers that will place. It's obvious Hoxie and Effingham will be the top two teams this year at state.
