You will find a commonality among Detmer's defeated opponents. He wrestles smart and usually enough to win. Every match that I've seen, he controls the match but does nothing spectacular. He lost to the Oklahoma kid in Wichita, but has cleaned the table here in KS. There are several wrestlers that have come close, (like Zach Rieb), but the end result is the same. He won Liberty like that too. The way I see it, there are 8 wrestlers fighting for 6 spots.

In no order:

Detmer
Johnson
Kreutzer
Rempe
Lemon
Armstrong
Sanders
Blazevic

On any given day, each of these kids can pin you.
