Who will be the one's to look for at these two weights. Have seen many good wrestlers at both weights during club season. Who should we look for from High school at these weights?

I see Tanner Johnson as the favored.

Kenny Cummings Elk County will wrestle 135 after high school and should be going for a Kids State place.

maybe louis burley?

why does everyone talk up the highschool wrestlers like they will place at kids state kids in the mini wrestling have been working just as hard as the high schoolers more than half of the kids from highschool will more than likely not place at kids state bc the kids in minis want it more than the kids in highschool

I firmly believe Trent Robb could wrestle with anyone at either one of these weights even though I like him better at 135. I have had the privelage of coaching him the past 6 to 7 years and his work habit is second to none. Good luck to him at state and congrats to him for his 6th place finish at Liberty Nationals

Every year the High School kids dominate the 14U brackets. That's why they "talk them up". A few 8th graders place but not many. There is no comparison on the work they put in. 5-6 days a week against Juniors and Seniors prepare them beyond any kids club wrestler.

Chris Coover from Ottawa is looking real good!!@ 135#

Watch for Jake Hattabaugh & Trent Robb. They are always tough.

Keep an eye out for 14U 135 comming out of Leavenworth!!!

What happened to Nick Pursel at sub-districts ?

Joey Dozier out of GC will be a tough at 135

I was wondering the same thing - he was injured in the match against Trent Robb in the semi-finals. Hope that he is okay!

Can someone tell us how Nick is doing ?

Nick messed up the growth plate in his hip joint, (kind of like a really bad hip flexor/dislocated hip). To what extent I am not sure. He is going to a specialist today but is on crutches. He is a tough kid who has come along ways this year. Hopefully he gets decent news today, but he will be down for a while.

24/7

24/7 is right about Nick getting hurt. We still aren't sure the extent and awaiting word from his appointment yesterday.

I just wanted to say that we are really proud of Nick and it is a pleasure having him on the Spartan Team! He had a great season and it's too bad he got the injury. Hopefully, he will recover quickly and can get back for next year.

thank you 24/7 for the update, I hope Nick is back and at it in no time.

Please keep us posted.Nick is a great kid with an even greater attitude. We wish him the best. We got to know Nick a little last year but mainly this year in the Oklahoma and Kansas tournaments. He will come back. Nick - Call us. We are in the Wichita phone book.We are going to the Monster Match in Denver later this year. We want you to go with us.

We wish Nick the best of luck-He has been a great practice partner and friend to my son this year with the Leavenworth County Spartans- He has been a huge part in my sons success this year. We hope to see you at matside soon.

For those who would like to know Mike Beachem is better he has sore neck and shoulder but was on the mat at 06:30 this AM going over moves. He will beable to reroof the house in no time!!!
