At the top of the list is a no brainer with the experience that hoxie brings to the table but the next nine is still a toss up. But watch out for Minneapolis with three returning qaulifiers and about 5 others that should be putting up points at state
Minneapolis is not ranked. They have one placer/state champion back from last year. I know their 152 and 125 were decent last year but where will these two be this year and who else do you expect to pull points at the state tournament?
Rossville should be in the top 10. They return two state runner ups in Matt Heslet and Cody Lambotte. They return Chris Graves and Brian Braden who both were state wrestlers last year. They have some other kids who should make it to state this year in Matt Bowers and Joe Zlatnik.
I think Rossville will defintely be a top notch contender with a fifth place finish last year at state. Two State Runner ups are back in Cody Lambotte 130, Matt Heslet 152, and the rest of the team is solid. Brian Braden 160 Chris Graves, 135, Matt Bowers 171, and Joe Zlatnik at 275. Solid Squad.
Effingham may score in the top 10 But it looks lik Hoxie can't be beat Th Northwest Kansas area is usually strong Atwood, Sainty, Oberlin, Norton, Oakley will make things interesting.
Here are my pre-season top nine in alphabetical order. I couldn't pick a 10th from 4 teams I was considering. Beloit Effingham Ellsworth Eureka Hoxie Norton Oakley Rossville Wellsville
