Kansas Wrestling Forums General Discussion High School 4A russell reg.

whats the 130, 135, 140, 145 weight classes at russell look like?

i know weatherbee is at 130, dreiling is at 135, and garcia is at 140,

Just off the top of my head.

130-
Weatherbee-TMP
Kough-Scott City
Flanagin-Colby
Zelfer-Goodland

135-
Dreiling-SC
Stephans-Goodland
Gonzales-Colby
Budke-TMP

Fisher from Andale is also at one of these weights. Probably 135 looking at results.

140-
Garcia- Colby
Hershey- Hugoton
Warta- Scott City

145-
Finley- Colby
Heckle- Ulysses
Prater- Pratt
Thoman- Andale

Probably forgot some studs. Not sure what some schools have like Russell and some other we haven't seen.

Also Lackey from Smokey Valley is in there somewhere. Probably 135 or 140.

i think russell has a real good 145 pounder and decent 135 and 130 pounders

Fisher would have to be at 135 because there is no way half of his weigh-ins are at 130.

Good List I will add a few to 145
Kraft-Russell
Hoeme-Scott City

160-
Lang-Russell
Mettlen- Scott City
Hatfield- Goodland
Kruetzer- Pratt
Heckel- Ulysses
Eck- Andale

probably more but I can't think for sure...

Eck of Andale.....two studs are staying home.

Cook, Goodland, quit wrestling so he is staying home for sure. Goodland's 160 pounder is now Hatfield who is not too bad.

any word why Cook has quit wrestling? would it have anything to do with the scandal mentioned at the Senior Prairie Classic and Goodland's absence?

Also how are the seeds going to work out?

1. Eck
2. Heckel
3. Mettlen
4. Lang 27-3 right now, lost to Heckel/Mettlen and Eck is a returning placer....
5. Kruetzer
6. Hatfield

just my best guess any others?

What about the other weights?

I would think that Eck would be at 171 and Fisher would be at 135 that is where they would have the most of their weigh-ins.

If Eck has enough weigh-ins at 160 to wrestle there at regionals, he will be the one seed. Otherwise, he will be the one seed at 171. Mettlin has criteria on the rest of the field. Heckel is over Lang and probably will be a 3 seed. Kreutzer will have a strong record, but maybe no commons other than a loss to Mettlin. My guess...Eck, Mettlin, Heckel, Kreutzer, Lang, Hatfield,...the Buhler kid could fit into the 6/7 seed.

I would have to agree with Shelstin. I think that everyone is forgetting about the Clearwater kid though. I haven't seen him wrestle, but it looks like he will be in the hunt just by looking at the tournament results that were posted. I also don't know if Kreutzer and Heckel have matched up since Gerstberger was bouncing in between 60 and 71 for a while. I think that this bracket easily has eight kids that have a shot at going to state. Too bad they are all at the same regional.

1. Eck
2. Mettlen
3. Heckel
4 Lang
5. Juby

an so on although is it kruetzer or riner at 160 i have seen riner there but no kruetzer. Cuz i was told riner beat heckel so that gives him a sed over heckel.

That was at 171 in early December.

These are the top seeds 160# at Russell, in my opinion.
1. Eck
2. Mettlen
3. Heckel
4. Lang
5. Kruetzer
6. Tjaden
7. Juby
8. Hatfield

I am not sure that Mettlen has criteria over the rest of the field, besides Eck.

Mettlen and Eck have not met, to the best of my knowledge, but they do have a common in Farley of Derby. Farley beat Mettlen by 1. Eck pinned Farley, thus putting Eck ahead of Mettlen.

Mettlen beat Heckel and Lang head to head. Mettlen would be ahead of Juby because Lang beat Juby.

Lang also holds criterion over Juby of Buhler.
