Kansas Wrestling Forums General Discussion High School Freshmen that have lived up to the hype

In 6A there are a total of four ranked freshman:

Jake Tanenbaum 112-2nd BVN
Philip Henes 112-5th STA
Steve Miller 119-6th MAN
Gabe Munoz 125-4th Wich.South

I would say these 4 have lived up to their hype or have exceeded it

Arnold of Carroll continues to show his strength by pinning his opponent in the Carroll vs South dual. This is the most outstanding wrestler I have seen in the GWAL in a long time. Being only a freshman he also won the Newton tournament by beating all Sr's in his weightclass. Congradulations Mitch.

MIke Church Sr.

Kepka, 103#s from Lyons isn't far behind all the good ones already stated. He's a freshman, has only lost one match, that being to a wrestler from Nebraska.

ryan patterson from garden plain is doing **** good undefeated so far and a **** good wrestler

ROMEO COTTON OF HUTCH IS ONE OF THE BEST FRESHMAN IN THE STATE THIS YEAR. HE HAD ONE OF THE HARDEST BRAKETS AT BLUE VALLEY NORTHWEST AND WON.

a freshman that alot of people are not talking about are tyler koehn he has only had 3 losses under his belt wich makes him 20-3 a pretty outstanding record and those 3 losses are only from derby a very tough tournament i expect to see tyler in the finals for regionals him and model will have one hell of a match i beleive tyler koehn could be a next state champion at 119 this year

There's a kid from Garden Plain, I can't remember what weight he wrestled, but he looked really tough at the Eureka tournament. If I remember correctly though he is still undefeated.

well said

i was looking at the bracket at 145 and this ROMEO CROTTON is a freshman and he dominated Chaz Hill by the look of the score and he is no chump, so he muct be pretty darn good

and Jake Tannenbaum has defenitely lived up to hype if he ever had any, but he sure has recognition now

heh...

my bad

No worries. That's just funny, given Romero's character.

Kelly Younkin has lived up to the hype this year too

Not taking anything away from the smaller freshman, but Atticus Disney from Andover is competing at 215 and he is kickin some butt.Keep doin what ur doin big dawg.

The bigger weights are much tougher to compete in for younger guys--most 215/heavyweight wrestlers are usually more developed upper classmen.

Lansing freshman Nick Flynn is 22-3 at 112 this year.

I thought Romeo lost to Chaz Hill (9-0) in the finals

No Romero won. (he beat Hill 9-0)
