how about shane grant at hwt? placed second last year
Posted By: Baldwin Re: 4a contenders 02-03 - 09/25/02 04:52 PM
What about Kyle Flory from Baldwin, runner up at 171 last year. And what do you think about team rankings in 4a?
Posted By: Wrestler4Ever Re: 4a contenders 02-03 - 09/25/02 11:50 PM
What weight class is Kyle Flory shooting for this year.
Posted By: Baldwin Re: 4a contenders 02-03 - 09/29/02 01:43 AM
I believe he is going to drop to 160 if he can, but most likely he'll be at 171 again.

Last year Grant from Eudora, Hinton 4A state champ from Baldwin and Kimzey from prairie view were all in the frontier league. Kimzey won the league title with a 5-4 win over Hinton. DelToro of Royal Valley beat Kimzey for third place in the 3A tourney. Therefore I pick DelToro to win 4A 275 state title. Might I also add that DelToro was only a sophomore and wrestling for just his second year, he stands to continue improving.

there is a bunch of good wrestlers at 4a. 4a is probably the toughest group in kansas and what not. ne ways i think that some underdogs will make something happen this year so watch out.
Posted By: havid deidrick Re: 4a contenders 02-03 - 10/03/02 12:56 AM
kimzey beat grant, hinton, and del toro. pinned del toro at regionals last year, so he could easily win state. he works so hard in practice and the off season. he'll be ready.
Posted By: leahcim Re: 4a contenders 02-03 - 10/03/02 01:33 PM
deltoro has been hitting the weights and training hard for this season and looking to win a state title this year at 275
Posted By: candyman Re: 4a contenders 02-03 - 10/04/02 01:07 AM
For all of you predicting Grater at 135 and Pruser at 140 it will be the other way around. Jordan Close will be 125. What about Derek Corral at 160 I think he will be a top contender.
Posted By: look out Re: 4a contenders 02-03 - 10/12/02 04:15 AM
i dunno. those predictions are close. but i think by the time febuary roles around there will be some different thoughts. i believe that cody hamilton will be in the finals at 103 who killed deeds last year. galemore from chanute has came around this smmer after wrestling freestyle with teamate shields.galemore obviously a better wrestler than shields will be tough at 140 and 145 or 52.shields has on e weapon which is strength but that wont wim a stae title. wrestlers like wiscombe and taplin who have a combiation of weapons will be fun to watch. the middle weights will be tough. at 119 or 25 i see bowan from columbus in the finals. he has put his time in on the mat and this could be his year. but the thoughts posted are accurate.

Prater beat Bowman and will do it again. Bowman and Cagle went back and forth last year, very exciting to watch always high scoring. You also have Close but the one that might mess up all their plans is Joey Hershey. Mulvane is back in 4A and his shoulder is fixed so 125 could be a fun weight to watch.

CoachJT, What weight will Jeremy be wrestling at this year?
Posted By: Coachjt Re: 4a contenders 02-03 - 10/14/02 09:53 AM
Jeremy Terrell, Rose Hill - will be going 140 this year.
Posted By: old145 Re: 4a contenders 02-03 - 10/22/02 06:48 PM
allison will be at 140 and don't count out metcalf who will be at 145or 152
Posted By: Somers Re: 4a contenders 02-03 - 10/25/02 05:15 PM
Ross Taplin all the way the kids a stud only one person included him in his line up
Posted By: Aaron Sweazy Re: 4a contenders 02-03 - 10/26/02 01:20 AM
Any thoughts of Zach Sheets of Chapman and how he fairs in the upcomming season?
Posted By: 4A140 Re: 4a contenders 02-03 - 11/01/02 04:56 AM
Did everyone just forget about Medill from Lansing? He did take second last year at 160, and his only loss on the year was in the finals in overtime. He is the last person I would overlook when making a list like this. Just thought I would refresh some memories
Posted By: havid deidrick Re: 4a contenders 02-03 - 11/01/02 07:35 AM
what about marcus waters? or did he graduate?
Posted By: 4A140 Re: 4a contenders 02-03 - 11/02/02 06:54 PM
Waters is still there, and so is Demarest. I think they have improved mentally over the summer and are really looking forward to their senior year. 119-Waters, 160,171-Medill, 171,189-Demarest.
Posted By: wrestlin4life Re: 4a contenders 02-03 - 11/02/02 10:37 PM
WATERS IS A GOOD AND AGGRESSIVE WRESTLER BUT NEEDS TO WORK ON HIS ATTITUDE ON THE MAT.
Posted By: Wrestler119 Re: 4a contenders 02-03 - 11/07/02 04:46 PM
I'm posting a poll on how good Royal Valley will do this season in 4a?
Posted By: Thriller145 Re: 4a contenders 02-03 - 11/08/02 07:25 PM
Marcus does need to work on his mat behavior alittle, but didn't Bell get taken out of a tournament at his own school because he was losing and wanted some breathing time and his couch wouldn't give it to him to he started cussing. So I think it goes both ways
Posted By: cody bell_dup1 Re: 4a contenders 02-03 - 11/08/02 09:42 PM
What does this have to do with me.I did make a bad mastake at our tourny.But u aint even got the story right. It had nothing to do with my couch.
Posted By: Just4Fun Re: 4a contenders 02-03 - 11/09/02 05:30 AM
If Terrell from Rose Hill does not get lackadaisical in his semifinal match against Ludke, Terrell could have quite possibly have been a Champion. Let us not forget this kid. He has all the tools to get it done (heart, athletic, skill, and work ethic.
