I thought there might be an outside chance that a bunch of you Kansas guys might make a day trip out of this and take up the challenge. Hey, there is $75 involved, that would at least pay for gas. As an individual, if you can't put together a Kansas all-star team you should at least consider contacting someone to wrestle for one of the Colorado teams being made. It will be fun and I think there will be some good wrestling. If you're an awesome Kansas Freestyler it looks like it may be a chance to make some money towards attending cadet/junior nationals if you are MVP of one of the the all-star teams being formed. As a Ponderosa supporter, I can't say I'm looking forward to Ponderosa being beaten, but I do want them to see the the best competition possible and I know Kansas has some sweet wrestlers. I guess this would basically only make sense for the western Kansas wrestlers considering travel time (Broomfield is North Denver). http://www.coloradowrestling.com/cgi-bin...orado_Wrestling

Ponderosa isn't THAT good. Our All-star team would destroy them.

Here's a chance to prove it. I would love to see an all-star team from Kansas come out and beat up Ponderosa. For once maybe Ponderosa won't have to travel to see another state's best.

Seriously, if you got our best freestylers, like Garcia, Kreigbaum, and Bedore, you would feel some serious pain.

Jhris i saw Ponderosa in person they are that good. There isn't a 160 pounder in Kansas that would beat their 160 pounder also i don't think there was a 125 pounder in Kansas that could beat them. They were also very good at 130 - 119 - 152 although he was just a freshman and i think the 171 pounder was pretty good. Kansas with an all star team could beat them, but no high school team alone could give them a run at all.

I think that we could give them a pretty good dual, better than any other team in Kansas. I know they're good, and could beat any team in Kansas, but an all-star team from Kansas would beat them big time.

Only because he's from Abilene. But yes, I'll admit, Ross could probably beat him, because he's a beast.

I bet Kreigbaum could beat their Heavyweight, he's really good too.  But yes, Ross could beat their 160. Their 160 didn't even beat Kromer that badly, and Ross would destroy Kromer.

I'm not sure what the Colorado travel rules are but why doesn't Ponderosa come to Newton or one of the other tough KS tournaments?

Mtisch, Tim Ottmann is the coach at Ponderosa.
Lancerm, I thought I remembered Rinaldis (Ponderosa 160)almost tech-falling Kromer in the finals at GC where he was voted OW. That's beating him pretty bad!
Sportsfan, Ponderosa travels all over the nation to wrestle including a stop in Kansas (GC), but it would be nice if the tough teams came here instead for once.

Is Ponderosa a private school? It seems to me that a school with such an immense travel budget would have to have an incredible amount of funding. If they are a private school around the Denver area, it seems as if they could recruit quite an impressive team. Now, I am not a Colorado-ologist, but I think the population of Denver probably equals or trumps the population of wee Kansas.
Is Ponderosa better than any team in Kansas? Probably, yes. Would they beat an all-star team from the entire state? Of course not.
And why would us poor Kansas schools travel out to Colorado? Mountains are big and hard to climb. I say you guys get in a bus, put it in neutral, and coast to Manhattan.

Coasting to Manhattan. That made me laugh. Ha ha...
Just rent a private jet, that's what my school would do.
And sorry Parker, I thought he only beat him by five or so, but I guess I was wrong. Regardless though, even Zahm beat Kromer by nine and Taplin pinned him in about a minute. I bet Taplin could beat this kid.
