Pretty incredible story:

Brock Heithous is a junior at Wichita Northwest high school. Brock was the class 6A heavyweight champion in 2008, as a sophmore. In 2009, in earlier rankings, he was the designated number 1 heavyweight wrestler in both class 6A and all-class.

He has evidently now surrendered his heavyweight position to his team mate and friend, Trey Page.

and now:

Trey Page, also a junior at Wichita Northwest,has evidently now replaced Brock Heithous in the wichita Northwest line-up at the heavyweight position, and is now deservedly ranked # 2 in class 6A. Wow!

For those who know both Brock and Trey,this is bitter sweet. Two great kids and two equally great wrestlers. It'd come as no surprise that the Wichita Northwest high school wrestling community lamented the fact that there was no available spot (for Trey) between 215 lbs and 285 lbs.

As much as the Wichita Northwest wrestling fans lament Brock's departure and/or disapearance from the Wichita Northwest wrestling scene (hopefully not his father's, whose passion and zeal, we'd really miss), we are equally appreciative of Trey's emergence as a worthy alternative to compete for a state championship, in the heavyweight division (and that of his parents, who bring their own passion and zeal).

Keep your eye on Wichita Northwest, 6A!



It was earlier presumed that Trey, a junior, was probably going to find it somewhat difficult to beat out his team-mates (Brock, a defending, 2008, 6a heavyweight champion) and another team-mate (Kyle Kaylor, a defending, 2008, 189 lbs champion, wrestling at 215 lbs in 2009).

From all appearances without rancor or resentment, Trey accepted his plight. Then ... Brock's out. Trey's in... and now ranked # 2, in 6A.
