Best match I ever saw was Shawn Bammes from Manhattan against Brian Hill from Salina Central at the finals in the Junction City tournament in 1993 or 1994. I can't even remember who won, but it was more of a war than a match. As I recall, both wrestlers ended up with tape around their heads, a la Dan Gable. Multiple blood stoppages, lots of hard wrestling and a TON of action. Like I said, I can't remember who won but the images of those two battered and bruised will always remain with me. Hill was a 2X state champ and Bammes won 6A at 160 lbs. his senior year.
