I believe 130 lb. will play out like this:

1. - Tristen Deshazer
8. - ?

5. - ?
4. - ?

3. - Detmer or Hurd
6. - ?

7. - ?
2. - Detmer or Hurd

Tristen advances to the finals without breaking a sweat, except for his warm up.

Hurd and Detmer advance to the semi-finals.

I believe Detmer will control the tie-ups and tempo of the match with Hurd and advance to the finals in a very close match. I believe Detmer is more technically skilled and Hurd is more athletic.

If Detmer cannot control the tempo, Hurd wins to advance to the finals.

All three coaches are outstanding and will have their wrestlers prepared.
