A bit of history on Brandon Simpson. He has a 126-6 career record and is a 3-time State Champ.
In 2003 he was the Cadet Greco National Champ in Fargo. And in the same year he placed 3rd in Freestyle. He also placed 3rd in the Brute Adidas Nationals
In 2004 he placed 3rd at the FILA Cadets in Greco. He also was the Southern Plains champ in Freestyle.
Maybe they have crossed paths before or been in the same bracket. Ross Taplin is a good wrestler himself but his National scene accomplishments might be slightly less. Either way, I say that a post stating it would be a good match, is far from stupid.
