Well as I said so many times this year, never ever count Abilene out and once again I migh be right. This tournament is far from being over. But looking through the brackets and the team score Abilene is right on pace to win another one. As of now I give Goodland a very small chance of winning. I say that only because they have three in the finals. The Bahe/Dawson match could go either way. But if Dawson wins then Goodland will have no chance of scoring more points than Abilene. As its sits now I see Jake and Ross both winning their match so that picks up and extra 10 points if they both win be decisions. Petterson should get no worse than 5th place, assuming he loses to Finnly but he might win that one. So score 6 more points to him. IF Geske gets it together he could place third. So im going give him 12 points. Don't know about Rein he mat get beat by Tibbles. So Grand Total for Abilene 104.5 points. Unless Dawson wins then 109.5. depeding on how Geske does. Now Goodland, in my eyes Will score 5 more points from Bedore, pretty much a given. Ortiz has been killing people so I htink he'll beat Deeds. And as I said before Bahe/Dawson could go either way. So max points Goodland can score is 15-18 points. But I predict 11 hopefully only 6 though. Columbus now has the best chance to surpass Abilene with several wrestlers still in the mix. So we shall see how it plays out. Good luck to all the wrestlers from Abilene and to Columbus Good luck to you as well.
