Oh we got a countdown, huh.
Speaker 3We're done waiting. There's no more. You're there. We were waiting way too long. We had some technical difficulties there.
Speaker 2That's all my fault.
Speaker 3It's okay. It's okay, you know. So we're here. Guys, we have the Wisconsin grappler here in-house. Say hi. If everybody's aware, it's Zach. I mentioned him quite a bit.
Speaker 2No, my name's Wisconsin grappler.
Speaker 3I'm watching up there. I'm going to switch us over a little bit here. There's the middle again, you know. But you know we're hanging out, we're in the cellar while we're in the basement.
Speaker 3It's not a cellar, it's a basement. We're going to talk some rankings, right. Yeah, for sure I got. I'm kind of I'm kind of double-dose in here, folks. I got a laptop in front of me, so stay with me here as I go through some of the stuff we wanted to kind of talk about. You know, start with some of the freshmen that we're noticing in the lineups and kind of expand on from there. You know, with the amount of freshmen that coming up are great, you know, I, like I told you before, I've actually coached, you know, some of them in some of these tournaments that we've done with Wisconsin Iron, yeah, and with the amount of like high-level kids that we were, that we had on our team, like it's not surprising to me to see a lot of these kids where they're ranked especially just coming in. So it just tells you the level of competitions coming up, you know.
Speaker 3So it's it's good to see. It's great to see for Wisconsin. I'm going to turn my mic down a little bit. My S's sound really super loud. Look at that. We're having some fun with some technical difficulties here, but we have. I have your, your list pulled up. I have something else trying to pull up now. I think it's trying to pull up one of the kids. But anyways, hopefully you guys can hear us. Let me pull the comments up. I think we already have a T-Guray comment. Yeah.
Speaker 3Like you guys run at 7pm. Yeah, no, here, we'll put that up, let me. Let me address this T, not mountain time. I said we were having technical difficulties. We're a couple minutes behind. Yeah, we're a couple minutes. It's okay, we'll, we'll make it through. We'll make it through, but thanks to you, we are going to. Let's start at 106. Yeah.
Speaker 3I kind of brought a couple of those guys up earlier because there's a, there's a quite a few that I know, um, and again, don't mind if my computer does have to catch up. So if you want to name a couple, feel free. So what? There are a couple that I'm not aware of and I'm never going to lie about that. I don't know every single guy out here, especially in Wisconsin, but I'm going to start paying attention. Right, yeah, I've been paying attention a little bit. I took some from last year. Obviously, I know the older guys, but some of the younger guys I have an advantage. I've seen them around for a while. Um, benny Hilbert hits me right away. He's at number nine. Right, yeah, he's a freshman. Um Benny's a pretty strong kid. Right Now he's in. He's going to Appleton East, so hopefully they can, you know, maybe he can get a team built around him.
Speaker 3The kind of thing, and maybe some kids come up Um, I haven't, I guess, been in the room necessarily up there in a while, but I know that they struggle sometimes to to get some guys uh, either healthy or up to where they need to be, just because of you know, whatever, the lot of kids work, so many kids work, and this isn't their, you know their thing. So there's no shade on those guys. But, uh, benny hit me right away, um, hamel. Hamel was definitely one that I noticed that I've seen wrestle Bayport good school for him to be at good team. You know, solid, solid core. Um, when it comes to a team, hamel has, uh, I mean, he's been wrestling national tournaments for quite some time now. Yeah.
Speaker 3Since he was tiny, you know. I still technically you know right, All those, all those, that that was just little blonde hair kids that were running around. Usually it was a Hamel, yeah, but it's a hum Uh, yeah, the knowing Mickey uh is noted.
Speaker 3Well, I want to know to him for a second year because he is, I've watched him in the room, yeah Right, and I've been watching him in the practice room a little bit, get to see him go live. And you know, obviously you can't tell everything from practice just because you're either working through stuff or not having a great day kind of thing you know whatever, but he is getting better.
Speaker 3You know, I noticed him getting at least a little more solid on defense and not is um, I guess kind of I call it goofy, you know, when it comes to you get tripped up and you don't, you don't know how to land right, and it's body awareness it's growing and I noticed him getting better. Yeah, he's gotten stronger.
Speaker 2Yes, yes, so 95 pounds last year.
Speaker 3Oh really, no kidding, huh. Okay, all right. Yeah, but with um. That being said, I go down or up to. There's another one here. Well, cam rug. Yeah.
Speaker 2Yeah, so rug is um you could probably be higher, but you know it's, I know I have. I'm going to argue with you on that one, yeah.
Speaker 3Um, so the shaman, I, it's fine, I, you know. Number two, definitely in my book as far as that group goes. But rug, however, I tend to disagree, and you and I talked about it a little bit before. Yeah, um, but again it's the start of the season, yeah, so I. I have no doubt that rug is going to wind up proving himself. You know, I'm pretty confident in that. So I think maybe a four spot would have been nice. Yeah.
Speaker 3But you know, I think five for sure. Now I again, I didn't, I I haven't been able to. Actually, we talked about the matchups between he and Tegan, right, yeah, they, they hadn't met met.
Speaker 2No, I didn't. Yeah, I don't think they had no.
Speaker 3So again, that'll be interesting. Hopefully that that does happen somewhere, somehow, you know, and they wind up meeting, so that'll be a good one.
Speaker 2It is interesting with the rug and do shaman in the same sectional.
Speaker 3You know, those guys know each other. They were on my team quite a bit. Almost every tournament we went to those guys were on it. So it's it's going to be interesting. So, um, uh, cj Roman definitely takes some interest in the Willmott group. So you know he's well, yeah, he's been down and around there. I, okay, I, I tell a story every single time Whenever I talk about CJ.
Speaker 3So, liam, we took him to the parkside tournament and he was right, but he was, he was starting to get better, right, he's all riding on this cowcatcher. Oh yeah, this was, this was the. He goes. Damn, I'm winning this tournament by a cowcatcher and I'm like, okay, all right, whatever your game plan, go for it, let's see what happens. Does all right? Right, he does all right and gets up to. I think it was the third match and it was a Willmott kid. I don't know if they watched him or not. I didn't pay attention to that whole lot, but the um, the kid. The kid was going in for a double and Liam tried to catch him. The kid was just, you know, the same strength or whatever as he was and getting double leg to his back and he held him for a minute, I think the kid only won by points.
Speaker 3But he lost, yeah, I was like so how's that game plan? Yeah, now we're going pretty good, or yeah?
Speaker 2I mean, I've never heard anybody say I'm a win this tournament with a cowcatcher. That's pretty ballsy.
Speaker 3It was a ton, so I let him rip it like have at her.
Speaker 2It's the only way you're going to learn right.
Speaker 3Let's see what happens. But so, with that being said, that's a, that's a tight group down there. So I know CJ has um done, he's moved on to more um training, uh, as far as making boys and the men and he's doing pretty good in that room I think, uh, I think we may see a shift, possibly, you know, with Will, you never know. I think he's going to kick it up a notch. He's been doing pretty good. So watching him at a couple of these last events and freshman number two right.
Speaker 2Pretty good, Pretty good.
Discussion on Freshmen Wrestlers' Progress
Speaker 3So well done. Well, um, and again I rug, I can argue that, but let's move on to 113. Okay, and this is division one. Folks, we'll get over to vision two. We're trying to just kind of cover. If we don't talk about someone, please stay calm. We'll talk about someone. You know a lot of other guys down the road as well. Yeah, um, but we're just talking about some notable freshmen first. So, uh, going through 113, andy D Piazza yeah, um. And then let's say Parker new. I know Parker fairly well. He's a very, very strong wrestler. Um, the kid doesn't get rattled too much. Yeah, now, when, if he's down, he's still trying to score. That's the nice thing about him, so it's good to see him on the list.
Speaker 2Our firm has a lot of young kids. They're going to be pretty tough. Yeah. Correct, Like they got. They're loaded like with sophomores and freshmen, like they had. Yeah.
Speaker 3Yeah, yeah, for sure. Well, I mean I mean just the name, one right there, you know right? Oh, yeah, yeah. And then, um, like I said, Andy D Piazza. He's looking really, really good. Yeah, he's been working a lot over the over the summer here in the fall we placed at the Brunck. Uh, preseason, correct, he did uh fifth. No, sorry, don't hate me.
Speaker 2Yeah, piazza.
Speaker 3Um, we'll, we'll look it up Um but he did lose to the.
Speaker 2I go Gerdolla in the middle school again.
Speaker 3Well, my union.
Speaker 2Yeah, well, he transferred there, he's whatever. Yeah, but he he transferred there, but he is, I mean he's going to be in that room, you know yeah.
Speaker 3Yeah, let's see he's got something else. Parker related to Ryan. We wrestled at Dodgellin, good question. I don't know. He was always around by us when wrestling and I don't think we ever touched into that T good question, maybe. Maybe if they're watching they'll pipe up, but I don't think anybody's watching. But anyways, moving on again, will my union, uh, strong, strong, uh, showing, that's for sure, the um? Now this is going all wacky, I think that's really yeah, that's that's it, yeah, okay.
Speaker 3So 120, 120, still division one. Folks, we're checking out freshmen, kind of going over what our thoughts were after you know a day of having them. Uh, all in newville, yeah, it works as butt off. I can't, you know, I can't uh, besmirch a kid, that's. Um, that's a nice word too. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3I think it was. I think it was a pretty cool word Besmirch a kid, Uh, that's working his butt off. Um, there's, there's always a roadblock or two for anyone and Liam is on his own roadblock you know kind of a path right now where they they grow through stuff and he, olin, is definitely grown, yeah, um, so it is going to be fun watching him. I think he has a good chance of catching up here up to you know some other spots.
Speaker 2Oh yeah.
Speaker 3Um, let's see who else we got here. Cold Dushato, I'm obviously assuming, yeah. Dushato's brother. Yeah, I'm not. I'm only going to guess that he's going to be pretty good. He's all right.
Speaker 2He didn't place that uh middle school state last year. No, but he, I think he beat George Jones and and uh those WI George Jones, yeah.
Speaker 3From from.
Speaker 2Homestead. Well, George Jones has a win over the number nine guy, so he could be actually higher. But it's just, it's so hard cause.
Speaker 3I mean, still, he's on the four, the, the row 14, yeah, row 14, right, but he's on row 14. That's there's. You know, I think he's going to move up. Obviously, it's not everybody is going to bloom and grow at the same time.
Speaker 2So for sure.
Speaker 3That'll be fun to watch him. Um kind of wrong mouse again. There's too much technology in front of me. Yeah. There's too much technology in front of me. Uh, that's all, all in. I think that's all we got.
Speaker 2Yeah, there's only three. Or wait to.
Speaker 3Yeah, yeah, okay. And again, a lot of these kids. I know you know it's just come, you know running that dual team and bringing kids along. It's, hopefully, hopefully we made guys better. Um, sam Gearing uh, not not familiar with Sam, so I can't. I don't want to judge something. Slinger, though I mean slinger's got a history Right, so I can only imagine again someone who's probably going to move up. Um, I know Cade, cade, yeah, so that kid, that kid has come a long way and he's the style that he wrestled is always it's always always wrestled. Yeah, he's just really gotten really good at it now, you know, so it's. It's interesting to see how, um well he did in the off season and see how that translates this year. I think he's going to smash it. Um, you know, obviously he's, he's.
Speaker 3He's just below some really top dudes. So I think if there's going to be proof that's made, it's going to be one of those too. You know, if I? Again, I thanks to Tegan those guys. They take care of the regional sectional, but I don't know, are they ever going to see each other? Dc, everston, hartford, um tournaments that are the same.
Speaker 2Maybe that'd be DC everson, Oregon. Right, Then he got to work, hey Burke.
Speaker 3Are you saying one and two, yeah, yeah, I don't think so, I don't believe so.
Speaker 2Oregon, oregon, oregon Oregon.
Speaker 3Oh, they're by Hartford right Oregon, Kind of close by Hartford?
Speaker 2I don't think so. I'm so bad with this map? I'm not that down by Madison area I'd see, yeah, yeah, I used to from.
Speaker 3It was DC ever more north, northwest. Yeah, I mean he goes across, so okay, yeah, okay, and well, yeah, I know, yeah, I'm trying to think of, like, even driving from here over to crass I'm trying to. Yeah Down more so directionally, oh yeah.
Speaker 2I don't know this state at all as far as geographical.
Speaker 3Oh, here we go, okay, okay, we got there.
Speaker 2You go help. Help from T.
Speaker 3Yeah, here we go, this one new on DC I versus basically a wasa, thank you. Thank you, I kind of figured that, but I couldn't. Like I'm thinking of crass, like I can't remember which direction to go to crass from here, cause it's either across to across and up, and yeah, again, I just like I watch a lot of wrestling, cause we don't watch maps the bigger weights, there's not too many freshmen, obviously, but which I?
Speaker 2oh, that'd be fun.
Speaker 3You know, yeah. So Landon shepherd, yeah, yeah, state placer at middle school last year.
Speaker 2I mean, yeah, in comes for you know his brother, yeah, um Caden, um Did he ever?
Speaker 3I'm not sure he ever made a state, but he was always like right there, Maybe once.
Speaker 2Maybe once. Maybe once, yeah, I mean, I'm not sure if he ever made a state, but he was always like right there.
Speaker 3Maybe once, maybe once, um, but he's, he'll do all right, I think Landon will wind up. Fine, um, again, he's on line 14 and room to move up. I think, I think, honestly, just where he is now. I'm looking at the other kids here. Um, I probably would move them up a couple spots, just to you know, cause he's right on that cost, both Right Of that level, you know, and that's just how he wrestles, but he'll, he'll, do all Come up 138.
Speaker 2Yeah, it's always hard, like when you're talking about, like you know, returning state qualifier like what what really like. You know, who did they really beat to get there? Not all sectionals are the same, I mean.
Speaker 3Well, and that's kind of like I mean even talking about the freshmen, it's really I'm giving a generalization because the I mean they may have run into some of these kids when they were younger and I think that's now, that's three years back, right Right Before those kids. The other, the kids that are older, were in their area. They wouldn't have wrestled them. So I'm just really kind of doing a generalization based off of how good like I know these kids and just where they've been.
Speaker 2Yeah, there's no freshman in the ranking. Nope 138. Nope Just went through that 144. I said it's going to be few and far between.
Speaker 3I know which, but while you know, it makes it even better than because then we can get to the other guys too. Yeah, Talk about some of the other guys, yeah, nothing.
Speaker 2I think the next one would be.
Speaker 3Oh, one, six mayor at 75. Oh okay, okay, yeah, it's all man 157s, like almost all juniors and seniors.
Speaker 2Yeah, yeah, then I got. The next freshman on the list is Eli mayor from Mount horror.
Speaker 3Okay 75, you were mentioning some. Do you know which kids are going to which schools now?
Speaker 2Yeah, you, I wanted transferred to From sugar river or whatever. Yeah, bellevue Nuclears, whatever One of those tea I mentioned.
Speaker 3I think I mentioned the last time they had a show like I can't, I don't know, I didn't know some of the towns existed and. I don't mean to insult anybody, it's just I, and I've been all over Wisconsin. Yeah you know, like I can't where is that again? And then again I can't remember which way crosses. Yeah, but I can drive there.
Speaker 2Well, you're pointing somewhere over there, so you probably it's out. It's outside of my house, there you go.
Speaker 3It is outside of my house.
Discussion on Freshman Wrestlers and Rankings
Speaker 2It is for sure. Yeah, you know I mayor. I think he won all three years in middle school. He's three time middle school state champ.
Speaker 3How do you do? Well, let's take a look here. I'm gonna pull him up. I want to see how he did in freestyle.
Speaker 2I'm not sure he does freestyle, freestyle Greco.
Speaker 3Yes, folks, this is what you're on the ride for. Is watching two Guys type of names? So we can talk about him he did not do any freestyle and Greco interesting.
Speaker 2Really.
Speaker 3No, I didn't look like it's our bacher kid. Okay, Lou Mounds Looks tough. Yeah, 160's got list. Is he we got? He got a little big huh.
Speaker 2Yeah, I mean. Well, eli Leonard's coming in there, so he, yeah, they both can't be 65. Oh, yeah, yeah, interesting yeah yeah, no, no other season I Did have Ortegon. He just got knocked off, so he's the first one To be in the rankings. Like he's just off the list.
Speaker 3Yeah, from Bondi at 175. Yeah, okay, so he's is it or to gun or is it or take?
Speaker 2I don't know. I've heard it every which way, so I'm trying to.
Speaker 3Want to make it wrong either. So yeah we apologize.
Speaker 2Yeah, we need. We need to like he's the, he's the wordsmith.
Speaker 3They'll chime in eventually.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 3He's clean was. I can't believe I got that wrong, such an idiot. Well, you know. No, I get was. I get to do like I'm working two mice here. This is kind of crazy. Where's the next freshman? Is that huh? I think that's it. So now we're gonna go to D2.
Speaker 2Okay, d2 rankings so we're just talking about freshman right now that right.
Speaker 3Right, because the rest I mean we know a lot of the older guys. I know we, I kind of want to.
Speaker 3Get your friend in the sun, in the sun for a minute, you know, just to let them know that we are watching, and you know we watch for results and we look for those types of things, and I, you know I want to. I have to understand a little more too, because I want to do national rankings right and I just looking at, based off of like you do, like you said, statistics, yeah, I'll go watch some matches, hands down, you know, I'm not afraid to do that. Yeah, but at the same time, though, too, I do want to have a science to it. I want to understand the science correctly. Yeah. So Landon Bogart, right on Weston Ingham, I am, I'm familiar with Ingham. I don't know well, but he did. I know of he's. I got an older brother, correct?
Speaker 2Sorry, what was the name? Ingham Weston? Oh, yeah, yeah why, yeah, why yeah, he's naturally ranked from a memory.
Speaker 3Yes, yeah, I was just gonna say why it's so unfamiliar, and obviously I kind of understand that that's that kid's gonna be good. Oh, yeah, for sure, obviously. Look where he's at. Yeah, and in Bogart is that's gonna be a good match.
Speaker 2Yeah, this was really hard to to rank like that's gonna be a good match. There's four real tough freshmen at the top. Like it's crazy. Like a Parker's bearings is that bearings, bearings, yeah.
Speaker 3Yep Spearings.
Speaker 2He's? I don't know that he's. I haven't seen him on the fat, on the fat test list, so I don't know if he's pulling a gray shirt Brilliant.
Speaker 3If you hear anything or someone says something about the show, get your info in for your wrestlers so we can get him, you know.
Speaker 2Yeah, I mean, I look at all the. I try and look at all the body fat tests and see where they're weighing. Yeah, they're doing it, not just where the lowest they can go, but yeah it's also. It starts your clock once you weigh right.
Speaker 3Put that weight on the scale, you know, so it's kind of Tells you where they're gonna be you know, yeah, but I that I've heard of Parker Spearings and I that I would assume I think he wrestles at Millennium possibly, I would think so so. I mean not a, not a slouch group.
Speaker 2Yeah, and then Shane Ruchin Ruchin. I have no clue how to say that.
Speaker 3Where is?
Speaker 2that number three Like oh my gosh, could you imagine rockin maybe? Real ocean having those four. Sorry it's if he's. He pans out what he what. I haven't ranked like that's a pretty killer, for in a row he's either gonna get Humiliated or really good. Yeah, I mean I like that's pretty.
Speaker 3That's a pretty decent lineup for the top four. Yeah, wow yeah huh, wonder how these other guys feel about it that are juniors and seniors, right, and I mean then I don't say that as a dis again because I remember when I was young, you know it's like yeah, I mean now, but I did a lot of. These guys do not. I mean I did, but it's just kind of you. When you look at rankings as a kid You're just like Dude, right, it's all right, it's okay.
Speaker 2The number five at D2 was JV. Last year he won JV state but he only lost to Jard Jardian or whatever from Luxembourg Casco by two in the Duffy. So he got. He got runner up in a varsity tournament last year. Okay and all my Like he had to actually bring it, bring it to my attention that I didn't put them on there. And then I started looking. I'm like, oh man, yeah, it's, I'm pretty impressive. You know, briar caves, low die.
Speaker 3Don't, I don't, I don't know. Briar, I got nothing. I did that one I did not look into. So Briar caves, make some noise, dude, make some noise. That's serious. Dalton Fletcher, wittenberg, burnhamwood Again, a youngster I'm not familiar with, yeah, so obviously he made the list for a reason. Yeah, you know so.
Speaker 2I believe he was a. Look, he's a smaller guy, I think okay, they might be a okay coming up to 106. Okay, yeah.
Speaker 5All right, good stuff, good stuff. Hey, go back up top.
Discussion on Freshman Wrestlers
Speaker 3I don't know, I had four man of different, but 113 Again. This is D2 freshman folks we're talking about. We don't know everybody. I don't know every single person. I do know Max. Yeah, max is very good. Uh, max, I think I'd argue some of this for you. Yeah one more spot. I Think I'd argue for you to be up one more. I think, Eddie. Yeah, I think so. That's me. Yeah, that's me Again. I don't watch every and I don't know every single kid, but I do know Max is tough.
Speaker 2Yeah, it's just hard to have a. You know he's a state place, or last year.
Speaker 3So again, that's why I said this is speculation. Oh yeah, I was talking because I know these guys. I've seen them wrestle, so I definitely don't doubt their abilities. I've seen them practice. Oh yeah.
Speaker 2Yeah, I mean, max has definitely had some good results.
Speaker 3Oh yeah, oh hell.
Speaker 2Yeah but, uh. So yeah, it's just hard to put a incoming freshman over a returning state place, or. I'm just I'm playing the match of my head.
Speaker 3You know I'm just kind of thinking about what you know seen Max Russell and the Hattie, I think, once or twice, but not enough to Right. But I'd still argue it for you, max, okay, I did, I sure would. Um, let's see what else we got here. That's it, yep, one 13. Okay, max, show us what you got. Dude, oh, we got new bird. Yeah, so we got new bird, new bird. Um, obviously you're gonna I mean freshman again coming in, but I, I think I Think, if they're, if that's gonna be a match somewhere, I think Carson does it.
Speaker 2I know like uh.
Speaker 3Again speculation, folks, please don't don't hate us yeah don't hate us. I'm gonna see you and find a different view here. Um, keep talking though, oh yeah.
Speaker 2I mean that was actually you. I mean you, you got to think there's a returning two time state champ. You know he's gonna be one, right? I mean it was. It was a thought like I'm I have to battle with, like I just I don't have many common opponents with them since they're three. No, no, right. So it's like right, it's very hard to come up with someone, but yeah, it's all speculation.
Speaker 3Yeah, we're just. We're again just talking about the knowledge that we know these kids and I know you it's not like I know you don't go out and just watch video on every single kid. You're putting numbers together.
Speaker 3Yeah, and that's so that was the one thing that we explained in that one episode Was that it's not based off of feeling, right, you, you know who these kids have beaten. They may not have beaten each other, yeah, but the level of who they've beaten and like the score and things like that, that is what's put into consideration. So it's we're going off feeling right.
Speaker 2L O O Shevsky would be coming on everything saying why is a kakana guy so high? Didn't that guy graduate? Yeah, because I would have kakana way higher and I should yeah, right, I'm doing feeling, but it's numbers based, I correct. I can't just put oh man, I think this guy's gonna have one good tournament and it's gonna be at stake. One good tournament and it's gonna be at stake.
Speaker 3You know, so. So okay, so we got that under control again. So um Logan shad, he'll um, I know of him yeah.
Speaker 2I believe he's a multiple team, multiple time placer placer yeah, correct, correct. Um, you got fifth last year, mm-hmm, mm-hmm, I think you'll do good one saw this nationals.
Speaker 3Yeah, thanks, yeah um Garrett mender.
Speaker 2Is that from Monroe Mender?
Speaker 3JD. No, that was different.
Speaker 2Oh, he did, he's another one that transferred. They were like oh really, yeah, he's. He's a Hudson now From Ellsworth, yeah.
Speaker 3So joining team nights, oh yeah.
Speaker 2Yeah, so that's a.
Speaker 3It's another good move, interesting yeah okay, Okay, I think we hit the freshman right.
Speaker 2I guess that's how do we, how did I miss? Oh, he's a talk. More, though, we talked, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3No, we're jump. That's fine, we're talking, we're just talking wrestling. We know we're focusing on freshman. We kind of talked about random guys off to the side. So grade nine, uh, logan Chad. So we, we talked about him, so that's the only two. So 126 d2, zero, 132 d2 let's take a look Zero, yeah.
Speaker 2I said it's gonna get here.
Speaker 3Come on though. Come on guys, can we? Can we get these freshmen, some burgers, I mean?
Speaker 2they, uh, people say that the, the rankers don't give freshmen enough love, because they're right in there.
Speaker 3I thought Liam was in me. Oh I got.
Speaker 2I got one wrong, like Dylan Weigel. He placed last year, so he can't be a freshman again. I don't think you can hold him back after one, but I have him as a freshman in here, so no, good job yeah well done, so he's. He's either repeating his ninth grade year or right, he's in schools.
Speaker 3I'm not even I'm. Do I need to say more? No, I mean he's so this is a story I heard, because I heard know that braden wrestled really hard a lot and when he was young I heard that they kind of took it easy with Bryce and they like, hey, we want.
Speaker 2I think like last year was the first time he even went to middle school.
Speaker 3Yeah, they wanted to make sure that it was just something that he wanted, you know kind of thing I was like, damn, that's hey. Oh yeah, high five schools as uh. Well done, because a lot of times you, you, want the next one to be better. So the push more, yeah, but especially as a younger.
Speaker 2Yeah, sibling you got a lot of pressure.
Speaker 3Yeah, and I think he's gonna do well. I think, yeah, I did because of the fact of his he's gonna he's gonna kill it. I mean he's been, we'll go, it's Sawyer for a while. We'll go. It's Sawyer.
Speaker 2Yeah, man, I bet you they wrestle a lot.
Speaker 3They got it. Yeah, they got Another, both in the same rooms. Yeah, um, let's see who else we got here. That's it. Yeah, go schools. His brother just got, uh. Uh, was that male wrestler of the year?
Speaker 2Yeah for the WA or WCA.
Speaker 3This is a that's pretty cool. Oh, yeah, pretty cool. Award man WCA Okay, 150, nothing Not that. Yeah, come on man. I mean I know Liam was weird, but there's got to be more of those out there.
Speaker 2I mean it's hard to like. I said, the common opponents just Aren't there, so it's hard to place, you know you know who came in.
Speaker 3I think who came in kind of big. I think Denny came in kind of big as a freshman, denny, no he was 120. Oh, was that the first? Was it really? Yeah, he was 120.
Speaker 2He was your brains better than mine.
Speaker 3That's why I need spreadsheets. Yeah, because the this spreadsheet up here, I think sometimes deletes information.
Speaker 2Yeah, mine goes way too much. Oh, and I got Silas daly as a junior that she'd love to have. I gotta you take a, they take all these.
Speaker 3Olympic red shirt. Yeah world team red shirt in high school.
Speaker 2They just signed in that awesome class for minnesota, so I'm pretty sure he probably wants to be in that class number three in the country, oh my god, it's fucking class. Wisconsin right stacked with him.
Speaker 3Yeah, holy shit balls. So that's that. That was kind of one thing I was looking at. A little bit more as far as Availability, you know, like it, when you start looking at rooms and and all these guys that are jumping around because of NIL, things like that, folks will get right back on the on the rankings. I promise we got, we got someone like heart. See what he's gonna say Well, cold Bartline from Bayport, you state champ, I think cold.
Discussion on Freshman Wrestlers and Rankings
Speaker 3Bartline, is he on there? No, he's not. Yeah, I'm 50 or 157. Oh, zach, yeah, thank you, mike. See, this is okay. Folks, a reminder also With these rankings, if you know. Again, thank you, mike. If you notice something emailing Because it's that's where you can store it you could put it somewhere and have it in a file. You can go back and check and double check and make sure that you got the information right, see what else Mike here, I love this chat.
Speaker 2Oh yeah. I'll fly up the cracker but yes, yeah, that's what I was saying, like very true, very true. He's behind Carter. Uh, what's his? He was like right on the outside, or maybe ranked, I can't remember but the guy that Liam wrestled last year from him, from them that little tough, yeah, well, he was that strong kid at Pulaski though.
Speaker 3Oh yeah, yeah, that's right, that's right. Yeah, that's a tough team, yeah, that's I even saying now Um, what's his name going there? It's gonna be, it's gonna be a.
Speaker 2It's gonna be a tough team. Oh yeah, they're gonna be gonna be tough. What else we got?
Speaker 3here. That's it. 190 D2, 190, we're bet we're back on freshman guys. It's okay. Aaron Dunnegan can't. Uh, I don't, I don't want to, I don't want to speculate, can't even say I've heard his name before. What's the sit, what's the school you have there? Uh, that's Gales, get m&m, it's like it's Melrose Mandora and uh Galesville. Can you make it make more sense, please? No, I can't I.
Speaker 2That's. I think that's three schools actually all together.
Speaker 3I can't make it make sense.
Speaker 2Yeah, I mean, I didn't know about him till I saw he beat somebody. That was decent.
Speaker 3I offseason. I wish him luck. Yeah, I totally, I mean obviously Good luck this season.
Speaker 2I mean you have the hell of a weight class to start out in.
Speaker 3Hey, yeah, rolke burling, burlings, a tough kid. I mean if they, if these guys run into each other. I mean right, I don't know what tournaments are doing things like that, but Max Mathias dude, has he wrestled trace before?
Speaker 2Max no, yeah, I know, I he got. I might argue that one yeah, he got second 82 and max got third 82.
Speaker 3Yeah.
Speaker 2I know it's probably not. He probably ran into Wyatt, you know yeah.
Speaker 3yeah, I mean, I know they're close yeah trace they.
Speaker 2They had to wrestle those. The same section, I believe, right exactly.
Speaker 3It's kind of thinking I didn't look these guys up. I don't remember when they wrestled out Right but I watched max over the years and it's gotten really really damn good. Oh, yeah, yeah, folks, my mic cuts out a little bit. I'm at this point, I can't really help you. Okay, 215 D2, do for 215. Notable freshman zilch. Yeah, come on, dude, can you just put like a name in there, something to talk about?
Speaker 2No.
Speaker 3I just make up another acronym team.
Speaker 2Yeah, gt, I mean yeah it does seem like a made-up thing, doesn't it?
Speaker 3Yeah, I don't think anybody else. I don't think they have t-shirts that say get, get M&M.
Speaker 2No, actually Trace did beat him in the in the semi. Oh, did he. Okay, okay, okay, okay, whoa yeah, oh yeah, okay, okay, Definitely not I'm still fighting for a max, oh yeah, for sure Still fighting for your max.
Speaker 3I'm pretty sure he's a fargo american.
Speaker 2At least, or his brother. I know his brother. I don't think he's gonna be able to do that.
Speaker 3No, his brother I don't think I don't know what maxed it for a fargo this year. Okay, I don't know if he went or not.
Speaker 2I usually have that on the side of black and didn't put that on this year.
Speaker 3Well, there you go. Why you bother doing rankings then, if you're just gonna lazy it all out.
Speaker 2Yeah, going half-assed, definitely do that geez, brayden Johnson, cumberland.
Speaker 3This is 106 division three folks. 106 division three, I'm gonna be Brayden Johnson?
Speaker 2don't know. That's Dawson Johnson's little brother, okay.
Speaker 3I know Dawson, I know Dawson Johnson, but I've not, I've never seen Brayden Russell. So just coming from the stock he's coming from, oh yeah, I mean obviously he's at number four he's a state champ.
Speaker 2Two years ago, okay, fifth Last year.
Speaker 3Okay, middle school At conference.
Speaker 2No, oh, middle school state oh, got you. No, he won state two years ago, gotcha. Then you got fifth this year. Okay, he's gonna be tough freshman. It's crazy to see how few freshmen's I have in d3. I didn't realize that, like all the other ones, I have a lot of freshmen.
Speaker 3Deed in the noble. Why a week of freemont and reagan roey? Okay, do I have jade?
Speaker 2noble in there twice as a small area, I do have him in there twice, okay, what's? Wrong with you? Where's my fact checker? Yeah, you guys people call me out for that. I mean yeah Again if you see something.
Speaker 3Oh jeez, if you see something say something.
Speaker 2He's pretty good. He is email.
Speaker 3I haven't qualified for state twice, hold on, we got some. We got some stuff here. What we got.
Speaker 2Oh, there you go. That's all the schools. The get high, get melrose or whatever. That's what uh mcdaniel called it, because that's the galesville at etrick. Oh really yeah the trampolou like he melrose mendoro galesville, etrick trump yeah that's the, that's the acronym that you're talking about what in the holy hana? Yeah, five freaking towns all combined together. You're still d2 you know, I don't know.
Speaker 3I talked to meldow about Some of that as well, about, um you know, just demographics and how the how the things kind of go. But we'll get him on so we can talk to him a little bit about the season, see what his thoughts are. I want to put him on the spot. But, meldo, I probably will be texting you soon. I think my mic is going in and out. I don't, I don't.
Speaker 2I don't mind whatever.
Speaker 3Yeah, I'm just gonna turn it up louder so everybody hears me. Okay, all right. So Uh, 106, we did 113.
Speaker 2I don't know how to say this guy's name, but the why we go freema Hose you.
Speaker 3Azura, azarra yeah.
Speaker 2As a warra.
Speaker 3This is why I do not as warro peak and as warro. I'm gonna say as warro. That sounds okay. Yeah, that doesn't sound like I'm murdering it too bad. No, um, I don't. I don't know, I don't know this one why we are. Freeman has has always had some pretty decent kids come through. Yeah so I mean, hey, he's number eight can't be doing too bad, right? Um, I want to go back to 106. Hold on a second. I want to cheat these guys we were talking we brought him up.
Speaker 3Yeah, we were just talking about him and then we just stopped reagan roi. I mean, oh leona, three lakes. Like how often do you hear of someone from that area?
Speaker 3Well, his brother, ryan Roy, was right, I think, four time but I mean again like family stock, but it's, it's a tree, obviously it's coming up, you know. But as far as like Christina Niagara, yeah, like they had Caitlyn Kelly and Bryson, you know, yeah, he's coming from there as well, but like there's these little diamonds in the rough, you know, that are just kind of hanging out in these places.
Speaker 3That's what club is bringing right a lot of them out and they take it back to you know the their wrestling room, which is awesome. Oh, yeah, even better, Um. So reagan roi and then gene lanobal. I've heard of lanobal before yeah, um, and I haven't seen him wrestle, but I've heard people say good things about him.
Speaker 2So I don't know twice. So he's gotta be good.
Speaker 3He's real good. Where does he belong, though? Probably was at the weight lift, or weight watch list.
Speaker 2Sorry, not 11, but the 11 spot weight list. Yeah, watch list. That sounds bad. It's not a weight list. Yeah, he's not. He's not weightless.
Speaker 3I gotta change his banner over to see I'm really good at this real live stuff with those. Oh yeah, because I'm gonna. I have on there that you're here, so that I always wind up doing only halfway through a show. Okay that's a people see me zoning off like I'm trying to get stuff straight. But, um, okay, so let's go over to 120, because we did cover 113. Yeah, there aren't any 126. Yeah, brock Enderman yeah he's good.
Speaker 2Yeah, I think he's three times state champ.
Speaker 3Yeah uh, he's good yeah. No, I mean maybe, maybe a Brock, I'm gonna fight for you on this one. One more spot higher. Yeah. Yeah, I think so. I've seen him wrestle before and he's, he's gotten good. Yeah, he could probably be a little higher. Oh, one spot, I'd fight for one spot for him, for sure. Yeah, for sure, I'd fight for one spot for Brock. Yep, that's where I'm gonna stay on that one.
Speaker 2Yeah, those that Garcia and Gerber were so close. Last year I think they swam swap matches like it was like twice. I think, they yeah, they were two and two against each other, like it was crazy, like high scoring matches, so yeah.
Speaker 3See, I know some of these folks, I know some of these kids, okay, I know even the, even some of the kids from the small towns. I pay attention, especially as of late 132 yeah, I would be surprised there's one on like each weight. Yeah, you know seriously for why are we free? I would not be surprised, don't they have the like? They have a like a smaller club out there like that rest factory over there. Yeah, yeah, I think that's who it is.
Speaker 2Taft goes out there once I went to it. Cool, shout out to the Tafts how you doing.
Speaker 3Yeah, I mean they. They seem to be doing a lot of stuff, I mean they seem to be doing a lot of stuff. I mean they seem to be doing a lot of stuff.
Speaker 2Yeah, I mean they. They seem to be doing something right.
Speaker 3I mean, yeah, why we got has some tough they got a good coach out there and I'm I'm going to be a dummy and forget his name, but they have definitely have a good coach out there. I know we've talked a little bit about Liam on the side, about you know how he's doing, and but they, they have a good coach at that club. So that's good to see him Trevor, trevor, trevor I don't know how Po-traps, trevor, po-traps. Yes, Shout out to Trevor Trevor cameras right there, I'm going to go get him. Hey, there's the TV screen. Yeah, I can't see that.
Speaker 3Well, they came but not All right, okay, no, no, folks. I'm not a producer, by the way, so I'm trying to get it to where it's just him and I on the screen, but I keep. I don't want to keep dialing through screens, so you're just going to watch us on everything right now. Um, did we go one? We're just 132.
Speaker 2Yeah, 138 and 144. Don't have any freshmen, so I'll go to 150 right away.
Speaker 3See what's down there. Uh nothing. Yeah, come on, guys, b3, it's hard 222. It's the same thing.
Speaker 2Yeah, I feel like there was more in D1. Sorry so sorry. Yeah, there's nothing.
Speaker 3Man. Well, I mean, obviously then we can jump into some other stuff, yeah, um, because that's kind of what the plan was oh yeah, that's all the freshmen. Was it really All the way to 85. Um young stud this.
Speaker 2No, if there is, I don't know about them.
Speaker 3Okay, All right. Um, well, there we rounded out the freshmen right. Yeah. Okay. So good luck to those guys this season. Um, we wish, oh, what we got. Teague's got something here to say as soon as I find my arrow here. We got Teague, because I can't read down.
Speaker 2Oh, it's the same one we already read.
Speaker 3I've never read that, never mind Teague. It looked like it was longer, it looked like it wouldn't have been added on. So I'm just I'm trying to multitask here, folks, right? Okay, so let's talk a little bit there. There are some guys that I'm sure you want to highlight a little bit and like do you want right?
Speaker 2Oh, I mean, we can go back through it if you want like.
Speaker 3All right, guys, yeah yeah, we can kind of skim through a couple here Um 106. I know, you know Bailey Casey, you can't take that spot away from him. I think Wells close, but Bailey's, I think Bailey's just got the experience on the side. You know things like that, so, but Bailey Casey, hats off to the Casey's always doing a great job out there with the club, with victory and everything that they're doing First, uh, six and 13. Yep. Yep, yeah, Again, it's a that's, he's a definite, definite, uh doing for me. Yeah.
Speaker 3And then we talked about him older. Because no, mickey, I brought him up.
Speaker 2Yeah, we brought all.
Speaker 3the 106 is really okay, okay, notables, you're going to get mad because we didn't talk about your 106 is fine, I'm not trying to leave people up, but we don't want a five hour show, so we could do that. We, I don't know. I'm telling you I'm game, I am still game.
Speaker 2We will not have two viewers. I know that if we, I know we've had two.
Speaker 3Yeah, yeah. I see it, I don't, I don't watch, oh yeah, I don't care. I don't typically watch that because I just like giving these guys what they want, so we'll just kind of go with whatever. So, um, one 13, um talked about DPS, those young guys, uh, jaden Torres, um, I do know of him. Yeah, I like watching, uh his wrestling style, so I hope, I hope he can climb his way up. Yeah, um, well, it's just someone else that's in here that I own backer, uh, ethan Bast, I'll do it, bast. Yeah.
Speaker 2He's, he's going to be tough. I mean third, third at 106 last year.
Discussion on Wrestling Rankings and Matches
Speaker 3Well, it's um. It's a story between the best and Beckett.
Speaker 2Best and Beckett, I don't know they they had to wrestle last year, probably cause Beckett got first or Beckett got second at 106 and Ethan was third.
Speaker 3They wrestling. They had to yeah.
Speaker 2Yeah, check it out.
Speaker 3Maybe Beckett's the reason why best.
Speaker 2I mean Beckett yeah.
Speaker 3I'm just curious cause I mean again, I, I, mike is good, don't get me wrong, I just don't know the match. If it happened, yeah, check it out. I want backers. Good, I like going back or he's fun to watch.
Speaker 2Yeah, I mean best, and Becker was six one last year.
Speaker 3Okay, okay.
Speaker 2All right, Past loss to the night.
Speaker 3So oh well, I mean, that's a match.
Speaker 2Oh yeah, Seven, oh no wait Ball.
Speaker 3Okay, parker, new on the bottom down here. Good luck, parker. Yeah.
Speaker 2That'll be a good. I mean, this will be a good weight.
Speaker 3Like and I think, I think, I started out here too.
Speaker 2So like most of them aren't cutting that much or that mean they're cutting much, but like Sternweiss no slouch.
Speaker 3Yeah, you know, in Marshfield that's a great team.
Speaker 2He came on late last year Like he was on fire. Yeah, yeah, I agree, I agree. Very like out of the blue, I think I might have had him at the bottom of the watch list. He just one 20 staff, got them going.
Speaker 3I was subbing only him, max and this hay, okay, so I watched this kid for quite some time Shout out to Max and his dad said um.
Speaker 2I see him everywhere.
Speaker 3Some of the coolest guys on the planet, right, like I love said. Said full energy is always positive. He's always wanting the kids to get better, so shout out to said um, cedric, if you know what I'm talking about, cedric, okay, um, but uh, maximus has gotten so much better in just the last year. Just watching the intensity that he wrestles with, like it, I know. A lot of times we talk about his dads especially. We talk about the aspect of um. You know, I know we do. He can do better. You can do harder than that.
Speaker 3You know, especially the dads that were, you know, kind of they're really trying to support your kid. They weren't trying to come down on the kid and that was that. That was said to the max Like he wasn't. He wasn't mad because his kid lost, he was mad because. I know you can do better than that. I know that you can push full potential. Yeah, totally the whole way. And you can tell, max is really that that attitude is really starting to take hold.
Speaker 2And he's very mature on the mat.
Speaker 3AWA duels. He looked really good. He looked really really good Um.
Speaker 2I'm sorry, wi Russell duels.
Speaker 3Yeah. Stay tuned.
Speaker 2Yeah, sorry, they're not intertwined at all.
Speaker 3Not at all, not at all. Um, let's see Owen wasky. That is a name I know. I obviously use Bayport, so that's a the one to be watching this year especially. Um, you know, don't sleep on some of these like seven, six, you know kids, cause they're getting better. Yeah, uh, I know scrums getting better, um, so that'll be a fun one Jenkins.
Speaker 3We've got Jenkins coming up. Uh, he's um, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know he's um, I know he's getting, I know he's definitely getting his rounds in the room and looking tougher, so and he's not just wrestling, you know, just anybody he's, he's looking for the tough guys. Yeah, so it's again.
Speaker 2You can't sleep on these guys that are down here, cause they'll take over. Move in from D three Uh Noah Henderson to Holman.
Speaker 3Oh, yeah, okay, okay.
Speaker 2That's a good get. He could start at 26, but I got him ranked at 20.
Speaker 3Well, he's going to a good team. Yeah, I mean, I can see why.
Speaker 2Yeah, he didn't qualify for state but I think he was like right on the cusp in D three Even he had some good wins Right on.
Speaker 3All right, uh, 126 notables, real quick. He's the Cooper, you know. Yeah, uh, that's one of those calls again, but I just after watching Easton, now in this past couple of events and the way your Russell's just. Yeah. Shlumpi, I'm going to say I think he's going to he's going to be a little bit more loyal. I think he's going to be a little bit more loyal. I know he does well against Cade. I think sometimes gets a little one over on him. Yeah.
Speaker 3And that's it. It's not. I don't think it's domination cause Cade's. Cade's getting smarter on the mat. He's getting a lot more mad, aware. So I think that was good, Good placing on that one.
Speaker 2I'm sure I'll argue that this was a tough Kales Linsky. I'm going to rank though.
Speaker 3Yeah.
Speaker 2Kales pretty good. I probably could have had three or four different guys at one.
Speaker 3So the other thing is too, is I think some people forget about rankings when you change a weight you know, like you ain't number one, just cause you, just cause you want you were in that way.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 3You ain't number one on the next weight.
Speaker 2If you got fourth, two weights down and somebody got fifth at that same weight, the guy at the same weight is probably going to be higher than you at the start. Right, just based off numbers.
Speaker 3Yeah, you change weights, you change positions. This is how it is. You yourself? Yeah, because it's the numbers man you know like go on, they're wrong, but not always no right and obviously, and you've had no issues admitting if you oh, that's right, okay, you're right on that one.
Speaker 2Yeah, and you fix it right yeah. Yeah, people tell me all the time how wrong I am. It's fun, yeah, and sometimes they I change it before they prove it, and sometimes they make them prove it, you know yeah.
Speaker 3Yeah, 132 notables real quick, kellen, weird. So here's the thing. Okay, someone, I guarantee you there's a comment because of Kellen Wolbert.
Speaker 2Oh yeah, that's got to be.
Speaker 3No doubt Do we think that Kellen Wolbert is a contender for the number one spot Right, but he wasn't number one at this weight. It was number one at the weight below right To two below Two, below yeah, two below yeah. So yes, he's not going to be number one here. Now they wrestle each other. Strong possibility.
Speaker 2Hey, see if it happens right, you know because that's the only way you're gonna Both love the match, you know. They're both looking for competition. They don't shy away.
Speaker 3Right, exactly so. It's going to be a fun match, but right now, lucas is number one.
Speaker 2That's just how it goes. It's definitely an argument both ways. I'm not stupid, I understand.
Speaker 3You are so biased, yeah, so biased, sorry, oh, we got more here. We got more here comes. Oh, oh, keaton, keaton's on Geez. Zach Hedlop.
Speaker 2Masters.
Speaker 3No doubt, no doubt. What else is Keaton got here? Masters Division yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2Right on. Yeah, I mean, is a pretty.
Speaker 3I mean you're an all-American right. Yeah, I mean I only had a headlock.
Speaker 2People knew what was going to happen if they lose to me. They got headlock.
Speaker 3Should I pull up? Should I pull up the match? Should I pull up a match and we could play it on you, can you? Win a pink single, pink single.
Speaker 2No, don't pull up the match. No, you'll have so many people.
Speaker 3Folks, you go ahead and look up, you go ahead and look up Zach Pearson on track wrestling. You'll find is was that post season nationals.
Speaker 2Yeah, it was at Iowa.
Speaker 3Yeah, yeah, you'll get to see him. Really let it loose.
Speaker 2Yeah, Only watch the third match please.
Speaker 3Zach bias Pearson, as he's known in the wrestling media circles. Yeah, exactly, exactly that's. Feelings are hurt. Yeah, feelings are hurt.
Speaker 2Very biased. I know, it's okay, it's all right. Kakana is number one at all. 14 whites Deal with it. You know, like Jesus.
Speaker 3Oh, do you take meds? You have to take meds stuff, and then I'm going to. I'm going to do national rankings.
Speaker 2Yeah, I know it's going to be times 50 for you.
Speaker 3I better. I that's like I said. I want to tighten the numbers up because it's numbers, oh yeah, I have no ties to have those guys that are out there, right? So I mean, are some of them fun to watch? Of course, but I want to make sure that I'm doing something that I don't, because I can't see myself not being slightly biased. I mean, I like some of these guys around the list. You know, I'm saying like I've been around them forever, so it's hard for me to not want to do that, but I have no ties to everybody across the country. Oh yeah, so if I, if I know them, they're great people, but at the same time, though, to like they also know how it works, oh yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2So 126 is a pretty, pretty deep weight class Really. I mean Carter Freeman, tristan North, whipple, yeah, and then they got cash botting that move in oh yeah, whartonville.
Speaker 3Yeah.
Speaker 2So D three state qualifier. He's got all the momentum. They could probably be probably be seventh really. I mean he could go, he could move up during the season.
Speaker 3That'll be interesting.
Speaker 2We'll see what happens Maybe you said I might have landed shipper low, so that'll be interesting, you might.
Speaker 3Yeah, you might, I'm not gonna, we'll see. Yeah, I'm looking at that right now.
Speaker 2I toss he could probably be 10. Really, I mean, maybe be above botting.
Speaker 3I think I think so Well no.
Speaker 2Right below botting.
Speaker 3Right, yeah, maybe that one, that one would be, so that's a deep weight class. They're gonna argue if I'm, if I know what I'm talking about, which is fine, yeah. But yeah, that's interesting. Where else? What were we doing? We're going to the next one. We're kind of skipping weights here. I don't know what time is it. Oh it's, we're doing good, we're doing good here. So we got 138. Did we talk about that one? Yeah, no Notables.
Speaker 2Nice to meet you, just committed to South Dakota State. That was pretty cool yeah.
Discussion on Wrestling Rankings and Placements
Speaker 3Yeah, yeah, no, no Props to Tyson and the Peach family. Good people. Collin McDowell, that's pretty well placed. Yeah, um, that would be your top three for sure.
Speaker 2Yeah, I mean Declan and Collin. They'll be a good match.
Speaker 3Definitely a good match.
Speaker 2I just think Collin, is this really smart wrestler and not the Declan's not, but it's a contrast, though.
Speaker 3I mean Declan's a defensive wrestler. He'll shoot, don't get me wrong, but he's not a shooter Right. He's going to let you oh yeah, for sure, and so that's going to the contrasting styles like that'll be interesting.
Speaker 2Yeah, we got a lot of guys getting a lot bigger, like you know Declan getting up to 38, turner Campbell getting up to 38.
Speaker 3It's good, it's about time. Yeah. It's about time, nolan Skiba, I'm going to go ahead and argue this one. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 2We got a place at his weight and you know, above him.
Speaker 3See, this is where I'm going to. I'm going off of bias, I mean, I'm just, I know, I know, uh, Camish and I know Campbell, and nothing against. Obviously we wrestled against. You know, Holman, a timer to yeah or Holman guys anyways. So I've seen him wrestle. Um, I don't know, I just think Nolan's a little low. Yeah. I think so I think I would put him. That's another one. I would argue one more spot for.
Speaker 2Right, oh yeah, but it's just hard like yep, I know, but I'd still.
Speaker 3It's one of those things, jd Mender, soft, warm yeah. I had a great season last season, man, yeah, you know 35 and 11 as a freshman.
Speaker 2At what? 126 or 123?
Speaker 3That's I get. That's what I'm looking at. I was like God I'd put him up on where spot, but oh yeah, I mean it's D2 to D3.
Speaker 2I'm not yelling at you, oh yeah, I understand yours being the public opinion.
Speaker 3I'm yelling at you, peyton Holberg, that's another one, I might argue.
Speaker 3Yeah, for sure, but you know, like you said, though, like the way it is, you know, one last year you know, you know, I know again, you know, and some of the guys you know, there are ups and downs and you have your tournaments and don't have your tournaments. Oh yeah, I get it, I get it, but those are the guys I'd argue for to see you guys here, me, don't know, you see me at a tournament or something. Remember, I argued for you, remember that? What else we got? Anything? No, no, 144. Going by transit of property. Campbell did beat Kamech, beat a wider mark by a wider, a wider margin than he beat Scuba. But that is splitting hairs. That's right. I'm all about splitting hairs here. Obviously, I'm going off of a motion. So, um, but yeah, you're right. But Ski-ba is, ski-ba is the one I have the soft spot for.
Speaker 2Oh no, he's saying that. He's saying that Campbell did beat Kamech worse.
Speaker 3I know. So he's saying I'm just saying I like, I'm just, I'm just going off of a motion, though he's giving me facts.
Speaker 2Oh yeah, we're just going emotional.
Speaker 3So I'm, I'm, I'm ingesting the facts right now, but I'm still spitting out emotion Right. See how hard it is for me to filter them. Yeah, it's really hard.
Speaker 2Yeah, 44. I mean, we got her looking first, first title yeah.
Speaker 3You know, I kind of wanted to look at that a little bit here First in Cradiville. Um, I think knee bower beats Sullivan. Yeah, I think so.
Speaker 2Sullivan's, coming down from 52 last year. You know he pinched he was 144. Yeah, he's 152 last year.
Speaker 3Come on, Henry, what are you doing? We got Eddie man. This is another good weight class right here. Oh yeah. We had. Obviously we breezed right through it, because we're looking at freshmen but Cole doomer, conor O'Donnell, conor five yeah.
Speaker 2I mean, it's only a one time placer Okay.
Speaker 3Who do I put him above? Oh, I'm saying it, just said that again another kid that I've seen forever.
Speaker 2He won the wrestling. I know, I know I'm just a little salty about that. Oh yeah, yeah, I understand. Like you got to, you got to go through it all, though, like, where are you going to move them? It's not my fault, it's not. Uh, everyone Schroeder hasn't placed, I think.
Speaker 3Jacob gets his title this year. Yeah, I think Jacob gets his title this year. Yeah for sure.
Speaker 2Eddie another deep weight, though like Cole reads number 10. He's a two time qualifier, you know.
Speaker 3Yeah yeah, landon Colson, that's a good move up. I like to see that. J Cole Pankosky, that's always the other Liam. We always saw turn out, okay, yeah. Obviously, he's a couple of years older than Liam, but my, my Liam, my Liam it's not yours. No, it's not mine. During the wrestling season he is yours, Not mine. I'll set the. It's the almost time where I get to.
Speaker 2Just let go, Just let it let it be yeah, 44 will be definitely fun. You're biased, oh yeah.
Speaker 3You're biased. Why isn't there a Kacana guy up there?
Speaker 2I don't know, there will be at some point.
Speaker 3Who else is in? Is there? Okay, that was okay.
Speaker 2Let's go to 150 here because I know we got someone to talk about here.
Speaker 3Right, I mean, why is no? I mean, I mean, I mean.
Speaker 2I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean.
Speaker 3I mean no, I mean Kacana wise.
Speaker 2Oh, the group probably.
Speaker 3This is going weird. Like this is moving strange. There we go, willmott union. Logan DeFilippo yeah, cool, good to see you.
Speaker 2I believe and there we go. Hey props to Colin.
Speaker 3These are so again, then, clearman, I think that's a good placement. I think you're right on that one. However, however, sir, I would put Colin at either nine or eight. I don't know what he's done against Drake.
Speaker 2Has he wrestled Drake before? No, they're mean, senior and sophomore probably.
Speaker 3They never like it. Okay Cause I can't remember what tournaments Colin would do, and we haven't wrestled Shanno like anywhere.
Speaker 2No.
Speaker 3Okay, okay.
Speaker 2So, I just want to make sure if it wasn't, because otherwise it's like four years.
Speaker 3Yeah, that's for, I believe one the way I would argue Colin to be up yeah.
Speaker 2Well, I believe Metsler beat Colin at state. That was two years ago. Yeah, at state middle school yeah. I know, but I'm just saying like, what else can I call it?
Speaker 3I'm fighting for you on this one, colin. And then I would move jack up. I would move jack up. One more number.
Speaker 2He's tied to Colin, like him and Colin are close, like I believe Clemron beat him once last year. They're about JV, like their.
Speaker 3Pember, pember's another good one. Yeah, you let Rabidot call Sarbakar. Sully Ramos. Okay, and Wyatt, I mean, that's a.
Speaker 2He's all right.
Speaker 3It's okay, it's probably just going to Minnesota like number five.
Speaker 2If he didn't get hurt, I don't know what weight he would have been his freshman year, but so here's the thing.
Speaker 3And I might have been a Grayson's. Nothing but respect for these guys, because he's got some broad shoulders. He looks big, so every time I don't have his state titles on here either.
Speaker 2Yeah, at least he got the grade right.
Speaker 3Yeah, and he's committed to 93 and one.
Speaker 2Yeah, wow, who's who's?
Speaker 3the one lost Really. Yeah. He beat. He beat Chase DeBlair when they wrestled Dang. Okay, he's got some broad shoulders, he's got some broad shoulders.
Speaker 2He's got some broad shoulders, you know when they wrestled Dang Okay. All right, perhaps why oh yeah, he was a came out like that was right before we wrestled chase with, like Grayson wrestled chase at a Christmas tournament DeBlair.
Speaker 3Oh yeah, yeah, I remember that.
Speaker 2You should do. Yeah, that was an event.
Speaker 3Oh yeah, all right, what?
Speaker 257. Why.
High School Wrestling Weight Class Rankings
Speaker 3Oh yeah, well, I know, I guess there's one thing I want to touch on here Colt Sarabacher, sully Ramos. Yeah. Um, that's when I'd argue three to two. Do you think Sarabacher is better? I again, not a landslide. Relax, ramos, calm down, ramos, relax. I think it's a close match, but I think Sarabacher pulls it off by two.
Speaker 2Okay, yeah, I mean, I could see that for sure. That's what I think.
Speaker 3So that's only when I'd argue on that one. But there's, this is a good, this is a good way class to. Yeah.
Speaker 2A lot of people that are like, young and making their way up, and have been doing it for a little bit.
Speaker 3You know it's not like they're, you know it's their second or third, not to again not trying to guess anybody, but so 157, peyton Lee. Oh yeah, that's the one I was looking for. So we got Peyton Lee up there right, and that kid is turning a corner. Oh yeah, I know there's. You know, as far as just putting the work in and getting better like I know Liam talks about him a lot putting heavy grind on, oh yeah, as far as trying to work through things and kind of clear, clear the way for a smoother season, you know, and mental blocks happen and I think I think he's turning a corner this year. It's going to be fun to watch him land and grow. Um, I don't know. Uh, damiano, damiano, damiano.
Speaker 2Yeah, I think he actually moved in here from, okay, california. I couldn't find anything, but he was from California, moved in here last year was to stay qualifier.
Speaker 3Isaiah Guerrero, that sounds familiar. Did Liam Russell him.
Speaker 2Uh, no, uh, he was 45 last year for Walker Shaw West, I mean recently. Oh, I don't think so. No, why?
Speaker 3is that last team so familiar?
Speaker 2That was a guy who wrestled at Vegas, I think, or was that?
Speaker 3Vegas. I thought there was one that was out at the AWA duals. That was that size, maybe it was lighter, maybe it was one way lighter. Anyways, ryland Schneider, excited to watch this kid man. Did he get big? Yeah. Um, he got big and Liam's been practicing with him. So shout out to Ryland and Brent Well done, ryland's getting better. I would even argue to have him up to um a little higher. I would move Tanner up to.
Speaker 2Yeah, do you think Ramon too?
Speaker 3high? Uh, no, possibly, but Caleb, caleb's right. That's to me that's the right spot. Um, and then you had mentioned that Ryland and Tanner would be a really good match, right? Um, maybe it may, you know it would be. It would be a good match Again. That's going to be close. I can see where you had issues.
Speaker 2Oh yeah, you know, we'll see.
Speaker 3Caleb Cady Brett. Back Is Brett wrestling high school this year.
Speaker 2I'm not sure. I just figured rumors, rumors folks. Yeah, I'm not 100% sure. Uh, he probably is, but even if he isn't, he should be here, you know he should be on.
Speaker 3the Mike my cart landing girl has slotted a bit high and Peyton Lee is ranked way too low, in my opinion, at 157. I would concur. I would concur on especially the.
Speaker 2I already have a pretty big bias apparently, so you don't need to add to it.
Speaker 3Oh God, man. Is this guy from Cacona, or what?
Speaker 2Yeah. Yeah, I mean I yeah, I really want to, but like he has losses to Grant Harris, so that's kind of holding him back and he lost his older balloon. He lost his older balloon, uh, but I mean, I know what I'd say.
Speaker 3Yeah, I think, I think, I think he's right on Lee. Uh, let me take a look at girl here. When you grow, exactly. So the, the dummy, I don't just moved in.
Speaker 2No, last year he, oh, last year he was California. I was like why? You have them higher than these guys, then if you just fall by last year in California no, here, oh, here, yeah, not a very tough sectional, but I mean sorry, cappellini, yeah, yeah, yeah, Some credit MMA guy, I don't know. Not sure.
Speaker 3That sounds like a kid from the EWA duels Again. No disrespect If I don't remember any. It's just that there's a lot, a lot going through my brain and I have ADHD working, so I think that I think he does Okay, cool, yeah, liam. Liam was like, yeah, I would not win an MMA match against him Okay.
Speaker 2I think he might. He might have that on his Instagram or someone.
Speaker 3Yeah, cool, hey, nice, well done. I made a hope. I say I read Damiano, damiano. Damn some of them. Yeah, I would say Damiano, yeah, they're gonna go, damiano, another great weight class, yeah, okay, 165.
Speaker 2We got the move in Eli Leonard.
Speaker 3Yeah, what's up, Eli? You need to let me know what's going on. How can we move? Hey guy, Good to see you. Hopefully we get to see the tournament or two.
Speaker 2Yeah, I don't think we, we, we do not run into them at all.
Speaker 3Not at any of the other. I don't know these tournaments that we're going to this year yeah. I have no clue. I have no idea. They're not any of those. No. So, kate Boyd, it's always been fun watching him. Xander Kulkanan he's been fun to watch as well. It's a senior year so hopefully he can he can get up there a little more. Yeah, I'm not going to talk about Liam. Right.
Speaker 3You don't know a lot about him so I don't Barely pay attention on, yeah, barely Easton, warden, beaver Dam area, that's. It's good to see that. Caleb Tecral, I would almost would argue that one. Yeah. Almost one spot.
Speaker 2Almost I could see two or three.
Speaker 3Craig, or I think I would move up Craig, or as well. Yeah. But again, without looking at I don't know the common opponents, I don't know if they met each other. I mean, obviously they're opposite sides of the state. So yeah, I mean that one, I know. I know Chippewa Falls is not close to Sun Prairie.
Speaker 2There you go. You got that one right, I know that.
Speaker 3Okay, let's see who else we got here. Xander, we talked about Eli. It's been fun watching Eli. I know Eli's beaten Liam before. Yeah. And I know Liam just I think recently beat him. So it's always been kind of fun watching those guys wrestle. It's been back and forth. I really want to see Liam and Kate wrestle Like that one I thought was going to happen. I think state yeah, I thought was going to Right For third, yeah, but they didn't. That would have been a good match.
Speaker 2So that's the ref so his debts.
Speaker 3I know right, yeah, well, I mean, you got to shoot sooner than the end of the match, that too. So okay, and Brandenburg has been around with the, with Wisconsin red, you know. So I'm watching him. I didn't realize he had gotten that big, you know, and once we got the state and stuff like that kind of, I knew he got bigger. But then I saw him and like damn, he got big, like you got big, big Martin.
Speaker 2T give commented.
Discussion on High School Wrestling Rankings
Speaker 3So oh really, yeah, let's see, we got Mike. I want to say that I appreciate both. Thanks for helping grow the sport wrestling in our state. Thank you for watching Mike. We appreciate it. That's why we do it we. This is fun, you know, just kind of sitting around talking, just talking wrestling. I mean, all these kids work hard. It's not to take anything away, it's just we're obviously basing just off of what we know and kind of information, but then kind of maybe having fun with guessing. Yeah.
Speaker 3The Liam confirmed Pokemon expert. Um, you know you said he did beach pretty good in the in the Pokemon match. So much.
Speaker 3Pokemon much uh, pokemon, I can't talk, but yeah, he had fun with that. He definitely got to do a number two. Um, you didn't lose any integrity by doing that show either. Your integrity is not stained by working Pokemon. Some of the people out there tell you what kind of fun. Yeah, it's fun for me because I can handle it, kind of thing. You know like I don't mind the back and forth a little bit, but like everybody's got to go like low blows and like has to keep going lower and lower and lower. He can't just just have fun shots.
Speaker 2Yeah, Like, like see who can be the biggest douchebag biggest dick.
Speaker 3Yeah, how big of a dick can I be today, you know, but okay, so anyways, 165 Charlie hats off to him. Oh yeah, minnesota commit just signed Congratulations to him. Um, it's going to be fun watching him. We'll see where everybody winds up. Yeah.
Speaker 3There's, there's been spec about certain weights. You know, like Liam, I don't know, maybe he goes to 57 first, maybe he stays 65. Maybe Charlie goes 57. Maybe he's just. Who knows? Yeah, just throw it up in the air and have some fun with it. No, yeah, when people land, they land. It's like playing spin the bottle. I got it. Um, but great way of class. Uh, shout out to all of them Top 10. Look great, let's kill it this year. Fellas, 175, real quick.
Speaker 3Brady Sprangers, that kid's an animal. Okay, that kid has and I'm sorry, but the kid has like natural athletic ability. Oh, yeah, the way that he can wrestle and the way that he can wrestle, wrestle through positions like he's not, he's not up at, like answering all the time. No, even in middle school and grade school he was like that. Liam wrestled him back in the day and, like it was, he's like hit an advanced type of style already and he was just kind of doing regular practices, you know, and that's just watching him wrestle with Liam and they practice together. It's just amazing to watch the things that he can do and just what he did last year. Yeah.
Speaker 3You know when we put them out on the line, you know so that the shout out the Sprangers. It's going to be fun to watch him this year. Eli mayor, do you say you just moved?
Speaker 2No, he's a freshman. He moved, did you say?
Speaker 3he stayed.
Speaker 2He's there, but Eli in there yeah. Yeah, yeah I know Okay, eli, eli.
Speaker 3Yeah, jake Stofel shout out to Jake Just signing at his school the other day. Yep Going to Missouri. Caleb Denny, that's going to be a good match.
Speaker 2Yes. Repeat of last year. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3That's. I mean they're both. Obviously Jake. It was a little hurt and he's better now. No surgery needed for that crazy. Yeah, had a bouton. Just had to have his foot in a certain position for however many weeks, months, that's crazy. His dad's like no, no surgery, I'm like what. So that's good. Good for Jake and he's healing up and he looks good. Caleb always got respect for that kid. It's always fun to watch him, man. Did he get big too? Oh?
Speaker 2yeah, holy cow, 120 to 152, and then probably 75, maybe 65.
Speaker 3Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, ben Ott always fun to watch him. He's always up in the top. You know at least top three right now, obviously, but he always the top five. Yeah, always. I don't know if he's ever had a below top three year. Let's see who else it is. Luke rocks that name just hit me in the face for some reason. Yeah, yeah, I don't know why. So well, bam, okay, never. I said I because now I go to looking at Brady and this guy. Yeah, I think Brady beats him. Right and.
Speaker 3I'm just but based enough his name. Oh yeah. Again, emotion. See, that's why I can't do the state stuff.
Speaker 2I don't like this guy's name, so he's gonna be above him.
Speaker 3They're both. I mean, obviously, like I said, I get to see Brady. Luke probably does just fine. Oh yeah, but I'm still putting Brady up in that's room. I'm fighting for you, brady, based on emotions, pure emotions. Aiden need him. That's a kid. I'd probably put a little higher bud. Yeah, that one I'd probably put up.
Speaker 2I would, I would almost put them in versus Brady will be a good one.
Speaker 3I think. I don't think he beats Brady, though I think he's dead.
Speaker 2That's what I'm saying, like I don't think he beats Brady, sorry.
Speaker 3Aiden, I just don't. I do. You know it is Hortonville. Guys are talking a lot of smack to Liam not too long ago.
Speaker 2Oh yeah.
Speaker 3And we're gonna do this. So you guys better. You guys better bring it, because that's been going around as far as guys wanting to wrestle another one. Yeah, so you guys better bring it this year. If you guys are gonna, you guys are gonna put it up there, especially your letters. Aiden's a senior. Yeah, I think so.
Speaker 2No way, yeah, I think so.
Speaker 3Man Aiden, I did not realize you were that seasoned. Yeah. Huh, well, I still. I think Aiden should be higher. That's me, but I don't think he beats Brady. I think you move Brady up one and you put you put him up up there with him. Yeah.
Speaker 3Yeah, I think that's that. I'd argue that. Um, riker Morgan heard of him. I know he's had some pretty decent success, so it'd be nice to see him. Maybe grab some hardware at the end of the year? Yeah, that'd be fun to see and I'm gonna be brought him up. Okay, next one 190. Let's see he can Fox. This is always starting in like middle of the way class. Yeah, well.
Discussion on Wrestling Rankings
Speaker 3Conor Marisola. Congrats to those guys, both Conor and Cole, signing to Penn State. Great grab, those guys are gonna kill it out there. Yeah, this all looks pretty accurate to me. Top three Um.
Speaker 2I mean, the one that I could maybe is a tritz.
Speaker 3Tritz, I was just looking at that, tritz. I'd probably argue for that moving up one. Yeah. One. That's about it right now. I good job Again. Good stock. Yeah, you know things. You can't go wrong. But is that spelled right, kyler?
Speaker 2I think so. Nobody's told me difference, though. Okay, I'm pretty sure that's the way it was in that state.
Speaker 3Yeah, yeah, I have no idea, not the one about these guys is they all have track profile. I'm not the one that looks in the backpack.
Speaker 2Yeah, that's how you spell it.
Speaker 3Is it no kidding? I thought it was what I thought it was why?
Speaker 2Hey, good job, I want to just pull that out of my ass.
Speaker 3Yes, you would Look at the grades you're doing. You're giving guys another year. Tegan Fox it's fun watching him Shout out to Tegan. Um, I again. There's a couple guys that jump out of me on Griesbach. He's Marshfield. I mean, yeah, the Winkleman. We all know Winkleman. So this is a pretty balanced. I would say this is a other than that one. This is a pretty balanced rating. Yeah, so you passed there. Okay, yep, you're welcome 215. In St Clair Congrats to him. Just did a lot of stuff, yeah, lots of stuff.
Speaker 2Fargo Super 32 worlds right, he didn't go to Fargo. No, yeah, yeah, idiot yeah, even when the nation you beat the world.
Speaker 3Yeah, handily, yeah. So here's the thing. It was worlds, but I'm thinking it was Fargo in my head. Yeah, but either way, he killed it. It doesn't matter. He's tough tournament. He did well. Did you see it? Did you see that drag? I mean it was all around flow, but like it was like it was nothing. Oh, yeah, just like a poop, I'm gonna bring you over here. That was fun. That was fun to watch him. Garrett, yeah, that's, that's accurate. I don't think anybody touches. Aiden owns that spot. That's a. The rest are the ones you argue on this one.
Speaker 2Yeah, this is pretty tough, All these guys are.
Speaker 3Mackaye Rogers pretty good, Pretty good. Mason Grull I know he's been working hard. He's looking good.
Speaker 2Well, I mean he pretty balanced. We just had that injury to the be your damn guy Clat, like he was injured last year too. He was a state runner up as a sophomore.
Speaker 3Oh really, okay, All right, but this looks pretty balanced. Yeah, the rest of it, I mean Garrett's, garrett's, another kind of kids, and animal.
Speaker 2Oh yeah, I watched him approached against them at Pulaski and he was the finals and big dude and loses a senior and he's a freshman.
Speaker 3I'm like, my goodness, yeah, I mean, we polished in middle school you couldn't like. He had some matches. He had a couple that he had to fight for, but we won them, like it was like he just made. He's very talented. He ain't touching Aiden, though, no, so there's that. Yeah, it's not happening. Yeah, cole, cole Marisola can't argue that Brock.
Speaker 2Yeah, he helped, I was. I was wondering if he was going to wrestle it, because he's, yeah, football, yeah, and he did the pinch test. Yeah, he got the first, first hurdle out of it.
Speaker 3If he does, if he does football this wrestling season. We'll keep him in shape for going next year.
Speaker 2Yeah, you know what Some coaches don't like. You Don't like me, no, don't like you. Risking, risking getting hurt and wrestling.
Speaker 3Yeah, I get it. Yeah, cause they money on the line. Yeah.
Speaker 2So, but I mean this is a pretty comprehensive, crazy weight too. Yeah, Like there's a lot of kids that could do pretty well and you know, usually heavy weights.
Speaker 3Don't look that like and this is fairly maybe Stromberg, but these guys spilled the like, yeah, no this is accurate.
Speaker 2Yeah, I mean it's accurate.
Speaker 3Yep, I like this, no complaints, well done. Okay, really brush over D2 here quick.
Speaker 2Yeah, we do it quick. I don't know how long has it been, what time is it?
Speaker 3Hour and 30 minutes. Hour and a half, we're good. We're good. If they're not paying attention, they're going to be able to listen to it. So D2, real quick. Again, we're doing just brush overs guys. We're just doing notable guys that we know, kind of commenting on what we think they're going to be doing. We don't want to take forever, but we're going to a little bit. Right, this is just a freshman heavyweight class. Yeah, we already talked about a lot of this whole thing. Bull guard Yep, love it. Okay, carson, that's a. You know, that's one I might argue. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2JB stay champ I mean a little bit.
Speaker 3Yeah, Colton Koss, your get M&M, get him. There you go.
Speaker 2Yeah, that's. He just had a match, a close match with. Dpsa at preseason Costed.
Speaker 3Yeah, yeah, he could be good. Colton, right this brother.
Speaker 2No, I think that's him right, Colton is.
Speaker 3What was it? I thought I said Carson Koss. Sorry, colton, that's my bad. The fun part, it's the fun part. It's just always just a Parker Spearings. It's always been fun watching the kid. Okay, let's see, we got 113. Notables Logan Mueller always done well. Hockin owns number one. Sorry, I'm not going to give anybody else the opportunity on that one. No, yeah, take Landon your Jandron. Yeah, yep.
Speaker 2Yeah, no, you already talked about Max.
Speaker 3I know, okay, yeah, addie, yep, yep, yep. Okay, benny Miller, um, you know, benny should be up a little more, I think. So I think, like that, one's based off emotion as well. But I mean, this is the the aim re kid.
Speaker 2I don't know him well enough to put Benny, I mean he had 19 losses last year.
Speaker 3No, I know, I know. It's just that now I'd have to look at who you know, like that's the science of it all. Yeah, sure Putting it together. Okay, brent Brent Kajaric.
Speaker 2They could maybe be hard.
Speaker 3I'm thinking two spots, if not maybe a few more, you know. Actually, I know Kajaric and I'm I put him against Benny Miller. I think he beats Miller.
Speaker 2Okay, that's interesting.
Speaker 3Um, here's, here's the thing. Miller's got a gas tank. I think Kajaric is a little more sly. That's it, yeah. No, and I know both these guys have watched them both wrestle forever Close. I think it'd be a close match by all means, but I think Kajaric's a little low. Yeah. And I'm sure Logan Meyer's dad could be like he wrestled him. I don't know.
Speaker 2Usually the grandpas, though I've had some ones that tell Is it yeah?
Speaker 3It's the and the, maybe the moms once you get a mom email.
Speaker 2Not really.
Speaker 3No, it's expected right. Yeah, it's, it's just part of the game, oh yeah, for sure. Um, charlie Mute, no, that's, that's again. I think Carson Newbert is tough, you know. Yeah, and I Brady Collins. This is pretty accurate all the way through. Yes, was a true Lochner, yeah, yeah this is pretty good. That's pretty good. I'm going to leave that alone. 126. I'm in D2, right? Okay, good, yeah, sure yeah.
Speaker 2I'll be like whoa, whoa, whoa whoa.
Speaker 3Different universe. Yeah, lane Anderson, I like watching Lane. Your kid's pretty good. Yeah, peter Thomas Savick, the kid's been working his butt off. I've heard. Yeah, I think he's gonna. I think he's gonna beat your ranking this year.
Speaker 2Yeah, I mean I think so. Yeah, I've said I was, I was Enjoy when I'm wrong.
Speaker 3Jimmy Racer. That's a kid I've known since God was a child. I mean Liam and him have gone back and forth since they were kids. Yeah, I mean Jimmy used to beat him all the time, oh, really All the time. Liam's bigger now, but I mean then the one match, the qualifier going, he would have both of them would have made it, but I was the winner and Liam hadn't beaten him. I mean, you beat him by a point. Okay, Jimmy had hurt his knee. Man, that was a good match. I mean, you know all the matches that we have like pictures of and like video of. We didn't video that one, we lived in the moments, yeah, we lived in the.
Speaker 3Moment.
Speaker 2The one time, one time yeah.
Speaker 3The one time. But Jimmy's a good kid, I would argue up for him. Yeah. Yeah, man Look at his record.
Speaker 2Yeah for sure, nine losses. The first one was pretty impressive, dick. I think he might have lost the start, though I'm not going to go dick.
Speaker 3He's been called worse. Hey, Jamie, you go ahead and email him. You let him know.
Speaker 2Pretty sure he has before.
Speaker 3Jamie, you let him know that he should be higher Right Again. No, no, shame these other guys. We're going to go to 132 was pretty.
Speaker 2Where is he? He's mean, you got him in there.
Speaker 3Yeah, oh yeah, tray should be higher. Yeah, oh, dude, come on, what is wrong with you? I know that one's wrong, that's wrong. Yeah. That's wrong.
Speaker 2Whores losses to I don't know. I have to double check there. There's no reason he was down there.
Speaker 3Big pile of poo. You don't put Tray way down there. You don't put Tray down. Nobody puts Tray in the corner.
Speaker 2Put him in the corner. I just put him on the watch list.
Speaker 3You put him on something. There's a load of who you. Oh Jesus he doesn't blow there. He doesn't belong there. Tray, I'm fighting free on this one. This one I'm solid on this one is no way Watch list. He should have a number next to him. So I'm his grandpa Now his grandpa probably would say something he lost to Goose De.
Speaker 2Where do I?
Speaker 3Goose, de, goose, de Goose De. Come on, what was the score End? What, yeah, still fighting for your Tray.
Speaker 2I mean one spot, still fighting for it, always getting up Hunter Bozeal 47 and 22.
Speaker 3Watch list. Yeah. Okay, okay, reed Sperly kind of owns that. Yeah, that's so, yeah, yeah, I think so, yeah, okay, good, 132. Brush over Colton Hosh. Good wrestler, you can't argue that one.
Speaker 2Maybe it's his first title, cole.
Speaker 3Has Cole wrestled him? Have they had that? No, he was 20.
Speaker 2Head to head he was 20 and he was 32. So I don't believe they have.
Speaker 3Okay, so I think Cole wins that. Yeah, in a match, yep, I think Cole wins that match. Ethan's tough. Now, this is so. These are some of the kids that wasn't able to talk about before. Ethan's been on almost every dual team that I've had. Yeah, dad's cool, mom's cool. He's definitely beaten Huntley If he won whatever we like in time.
Speaker 2He'll beat Tokyo Sweet speed.
Speaker 3He'll beat Thema Dude. He'll beatmin out of. Acc if he's knocked out there. Okay, matt, 25 men putting on the current 해ãoBeast until Fabi Trainer's been putting out sales. Wasn't enough. Dad on his lower extremities.
Speaker 2Well, uh, yeah, he just said coals out for the year.
Speaker 3Well, uh, way to do your homework, zach. You're getting grades wrong. You have guys on the list that don't belong there.
Speaker 2I mean he's still belongs there, it's just preseason. So once he doesn't wrestle like did he weigh in? I don't know, didn't you have the information when I, when I yeah, I do, but when I, when I checked, they hadn't, they hadn't put it on there. They don't have to put it on there till the first competition.
Speaker 3So, oh, really, that's the rule on that one. Yeah, see, I didn't read through the coach's rules.
Speaker 2I know you guys are allowed to do, I don't know the rule. I mean you have to have a body fat test to wrestle Yep.
Speaker 3Yep, correct. Yeah, totally get that.
Speaker 2No, you can do it the day before if you wanted to and then make, but it has to be within the way.
Speaker 3So yeah, definitely Ethan's beating Cole then.
Speaker 2So you know he has a bold prediction by you, yep, I put it out there. He is definitely going to Ethan your number two, nicole.
Speaker 3Yeah, ethan, your number two. Yeah, bob Huntley goes to number three. Trent Kirkland, chase Turner Sternard. Sorry, chase, I didn't mean to do that. Chris Meyer, hey, chris Meyer, campbell sport, that sounds familiar. Is that Chris Meyer at a Eppleton West?
Speaker 2That uh, was that Chris Meyer? Is that Chris Meyer?
Speaker 4I don't know, that was Meyer but I don't know it was Chris.
Speaker 3but he was so nervous. Oh, yeah, yeah. Oh, for no reason.
Speaker 2I mean he had beat Toby last year.
Speaker 3Lane Fry is also a get M&M. Yeah, nice, he beat who last year.
Speaker 2Two years ago. Oh, he beat Toby like the guy that he. Mcguire. Toby Kavanaugh. Oh yeah, yeah, Kavanaugh, you know, run the mill for 52, but he was yeah, All right, man, this this looks pretty.
Speaker 3I mean, other than you getting someone wrong, who's going to be all for the year.
Speaker 2Yeah, I mean, I still think he gets second.
Speaker 3Everybody moves up who's who's below Lane on your list, Cause he's going to move up.
Speaker 2I don't know. This isn't the computer I work from. I don't have my list on me.
Speaker 3You are killing me, dude.
Speaker 2Okay.
Speaker 3One 38 real quick brush over. Blakely bastion. Yeah. Kind of to me owns that spot, I mean he pinched 32.
Speaker 2So it'll be interesting Like yeah so many wrestlers to get in the lineup, so it's hard to.
Speaker 3I know he's been talking about cutting you know down for state or whatever. I think mom and dad told him he's insane.
Speaker 2Yeah, I was like yeah, that 32, then you would need Newbert to go down, right, yeah, right, I know New one's at 20 already.
Wrestling Weight Classes and Rankings
Speaker 3Garrett Marks, devin, one key down below here, cody Fleck, uh, I think you have Garrett Marks a little low. Oh, yeah, yeah, I think he's a little. I think at least maybe one or two. Well, obviously you need to move. No one up Likely's in the right spot. These guys, Jackson Black and, yep, will Schmidt. Yep, I just feel like Garrett's a little low. Um, devin, he's getting bigger, so let's see, I want to see how he does with this weight class.
Speaker 3Yeah, so, another kid I've known forever. Uh, garrett, I've known forever. That's why I believe he's a little low. But again, based off of motion, oh, yeah, um, it's all like after that weight class. I mean, there's like three or four kids that I mentioned that are that are notable. Hopefully they make a move up. I think a couple should be up. One more, yeah, um, but we'll go there. 144. This is still D2 guys. We're trying to hurry. Danny Heiser owns this. I'm not even going to argue. Yeah, you can't argue with me on any of it.
Speaker 3Danny Heiser owns it. Caleb Delebreau Um, you know obviously good stock. Uh, I think these top three are correct. Saw your daily, I think, is one more up. Yeah, yeah, I think he makes top four, not like that. It's a freshman, though. It's pretty tough.
Speaker 2I don't know yeah.
Speaker 3You know, let's put it out there. Yeah, I could understand it. I think Bryston moves up with them. Yeah, you know, I'm sorry, dylan, sorry about that, but that's where I'm at with that one. Um, let's see. Prairie to Sheen Mason Hurd. That's what's familiar, right, nickel? I know I've know of Riley's been around the air. I mean he's from Ripon so I've seen him wrestle at tournaments.
Speaker 2It's from Kokona Huh, from Kokona, I know that you think that's a good thing. I know that you say it's from Ripon though it does, you got him under Ripon. I know what I'm just saying. He's from Ripon.
Speaker 3He's not from here anymore. No, he's from, stop Zach.
Speaker 2Yeah, started in Kokona.
Speaker 3Either. Yeah, Yep, Yep. So that'll be interesting to see how that goes Um under Sanchez. I don't know him. Spencer Madsen. Um, you know, I think he's a little low. Yeah. I know Spencer has had, you know, a couple hard matches here and there, but I think he's a little low. I think Spencer goes up, maybe two more. Okay, but that's me. Um, dylan Weigel, those guys are all you know. Sorry God, I just think that's a weird. That's just a weird spot. Oh yeah. Yeah, that's tough Okay.
Speaker 2It's a good problem to have it is.
Speaker 3It is so that those notables there, 150 D2 guys, 150, um Owens of Fruit, brody Hart, hey, you think. Yeah, okay Good match though. Oh yeah, good match. I mean, owen's been making his way through, he's getting a little bigger. Um, it'd be a good match. Yeah, I think it's. That's a little. That's a little close. Yeah, that's a tough one and Marco Brody's just got. I mean, he's been through a lot, you know, as far as just in wrestling in general. Yeah, just the season, you know wrestlers home?
Speaker 2Okay, marco, that looks like you're close, last year, you know, I know, I know so has suffered, has suffered. How are you?
Speaker 3Suffered. Yeah, jacob Derotcher Really Down there.
Speaker 2Yeah, he lost to Rich Yankee, I believe.
Speaker 3Okay, okay, um, let's see Logan Olmsted. You have nothing to add to any of these guys really.
Speaker 2I'm really. I mean, these are all. These are all like, uh, you're kind of sitting there.
Speaker 3Yeah, I mean nothing to add on these guys. Gaze Lojoich Um, I'm hoping. I think he's number two, I think he should be. I think he'll prove himself this year because he just keeps getting better. Yeah. He just for some reason, he just keeps gaining every year and it's always nice to see with him. Williams wrestled him once or twice. Austin, austin Coffner Okay. Yeah.
Speaker 3Boxer Elliott Lutheran, damn it. Hey it would be Brock Swanson. That's gonna be a good match right there. That would be a good match. Um, vincent Cook. Is that Kisash? I'm gonna murder it. I'm not saying it. I won't say it. Yeah. I'll spell it so they know KSIO, sszk. No, I'm sure someone's gonna pipe up with something. I bet, yeah, I don't know they should, because I'm doing it wrong and that's why I only spelled it and not said it.
Speaker 2I don't even want to try it either.
Speaker 3I you know because of the name. I'm gonna root for him, though, yeah. Because, I screwed it up. I'm gonna root for him. Yeah, that's fine, that's cool, All right. So I have faith in Coffner. I think, I think, and I didn't even he hasn't. He didn't come into kangaroo this year. No, no yeah. So I guess I wish him luck, because I haven't seen if he's gotten better. He hasn't been around, yeah, so he he Ronsman, that's accurate. Yeah. That's accurate. Okay, all right, 165 quick, 165 D2.
Speaker 2Oh boy, this guy's coming back from injury. He was injured last year.
Speaker 3Yeah.
Speaker 2Halopka.
Speaker 3Klinkner huh yeah, halopka, yep, klinkner is up there.
Speaker 2Yeah, fourth at 60 last year, I mean yeah. Mm-hmm.
Speaker 3I think this is all accurate on this one. Yep. Nope, that's accurate. Bryce Mayans. Yep, I like that. Okay, moving on. Yeah 175. Oh, let's see here Silas Daly. I mean, that's a given, he's in. Okay, I'm going to, I'm going to put this out there right now. Okay, yeah.
Speaker 3A lot of people talking smack about Liam after the whole Owen Wasley thing. Oh, yeah. The whole like okay, so let's let's get this clear Like this, the number one it was an event, right, it was a good match. Owen put up a fight and obviously you know he got the better right, yeah.
Speaker 3There's a lot of smack talk going around. Oh yeah, well, liam shouldn't be here. Liam should be there. And, honestly, like Liam, liam looks at it and he doesn't like, like, study it Right. Like he's like, oh where am I? Oh, cool, you know, kind of thing that, but losses bother him. Yeah, I should.
Speaker 3So then, like you got guys talking smack like why is he running from Charlie? Oh yeah, you know all this other stuff, but Charlie's great, like. Do we think? Like we don't know, what that would have been like if he was. You know, however, it would have turned out yeah, but to label kids like I have a hard time talking like real smack about kids. Oh yeah, Again, we talk about how hard they work, right, I mean, speculating about a match is one thing, and talking about what you think that one kid might be able to do against another one is one thing. Yeah, to be putting out there like you think a kid is just going to get smacked down just because of whatever, well, why would then? Why should he go wrestle the event Then, if that's all he's going to listen to, is you saying he's going to get smacked down? Yeah.
Speaker 3So, but at the same point though, too, that is a learning session, right? I mean, now you know what you don't do when you're on bottom right. He's got a learn from it. You don't stick your leg out so they can put the leg in, right, that's about it, because he had two really good shots. Yeah, didn't finish, you know whatever I mean. I know Owen's been working on defense, stuff like that, and people are talking about Not taking away anything from Owen, but you know that match goes a little differently, but they're not even going to be the same way.
Speaker 2No, it doesn't look like it.
Speaker 3That sucks. Patrick Moore shout out to Patrick and family.
Speaker 2I think I might have his grade wrong too. He might have seen you, I'm just going to go through here and fix all this crap.
Speaker 3Well, what has he?
Speaker 2got here. Oh, flip a coin at 150.
Speaker 3Yeah, oh yeah, my mouse is all weird.
Speaker 2Yeah, I mean technology. That was Seth Rodden Hart is what he's talking about.
Speaker 3Yep, yep, yep, very true, very true. I want to put it up there. Yes, d flip a coin at D254,. Yes, correct, correct.
Speaker 2That'd be a great match, if it happens.
Speaker 3Got a couple people here. You know it's fine, cool. Ok, so we got Jacob Hoppe, nolan Kulash, kilcheski. There you go, kilcheski Got it.
Speaker 2You're going to be like? No, you don't. They always make fun of the way I said. Is this Antigo or Antigo?
Speaker 3Antigo, antigo, come on man.
Speaker 2Two country Antigo, antigo, no Antigo.
Speaker 3It's Antigo Winberg, burnhamwood. No, it's Burnhamwood.
Speaker 2There's the Ingham, the next one Is it.
Speaker 3Portage, is it Portage? Yeah, is it. It's Portage, portage, but I show it to Patrick. There's a couple other ones in here. Jacob Hoppe, I mentioned him, I've been, you know, he's fun to watch. Nolan, he's fun to watch. This is again a fun, I just think. I think maybe Patrick's up one more.
Speaker 2Yeah, you know what I'm saying oh yeah, two more qualifiers, definitely.
Speaker 3Yeah, and then I think he has a you know a match against a couple of these top guys here. Yeah.
Speaker 3But Silas owns number one, ok, 190. Let's see here Notables that I know that I know. Remember, I don't know every single one of these kids, so if you guys want me to know about them, let me know about them. I'll gladly have them on the show, gladly. Owen Berling I think I brought him up a little bit before I kid he works his butt off. He's another EWA kid, Is he? Yeah, yeah, liam's wrestled against Max Mathias. I mean to me Whatever these other guys own. This is based off of emotional, but I think Max puts up a fight at the top spots there. Yeah, I think so.
Speaker 2Yeah, like I said, Hangum's tough, like that's.
Speaker 3That's a different match, like that one, obviously we prepare for. But like just the, I think Max is, he's working his way up there. Yeah, I definitely think he's contending here. Okay, so that was real quick. Sorry, guys, we got to kind of chug along here because I got some stuff I got to show you here that we're going to possibly doing for some giveaway. So we got a false thanks to you, I guess. If I reckon Ian Smith, I know that one. Yeah.
Speaker 3Chase, mathias, obviously his brother Max. Well, how lucky are they. What have practice partners?
Speaker 2You know like I mean so close and wait to know right they probably hate each other, but not every day.
Speaker 3But I mean, yeah, he likes lies gang. Good that kid. Yeah, eight foot tall Is he? Is that him, Kale lies gang.
Speaker 2Not, he wasn't last year.
Speaker 3There's a lot. I'm pretty sure it's lies gang. That's like 5,000 feet tall. Is it.
Speaker 2I don't think he was last year.
Speaker 3Lies gang yeah, it's like super tall, is it? Say here, is this new? Nope, nope, not new. Thanks, t, I just put up your old message, so that's all I got. I lies gang that's a name that I know from wrestling.
Speaker 2Yeah, this was a. This has a lot of kids like just on the cusp of being like it's probably seven or eight kids deep. That could be like up in watch list Like it's. It was one of the hardest ones to your top.
Speaker 3Your top is accurate here. Yeah, like Blake theory and things like that, definitely yeah.
Speaker 2Yeah, this one was pretty cut and dry Like obviously chasing Ian. Yeah that happened last year, but could go either way.
Speaker 3So I'm at 285 now. Yeah, I mean Koyapki, yeah, he owns it.
Speaker 3Hunter. Yeah, yeah, I put him up in number two for sure, the kids, I mean, he's got a different type of like Matt presence, especially when he turns it out. He like he turns it on like you can see it in his face. Yeah, it's when you see that. It's when I start watching him like, oh, he's, the other guy is not making him happy right now. Then he turns it up and just it's usually like a throw yeah, you know, winds up, just letting it rip.
Speaker 2So that's always fun to watch him Sure.
Discussion on Wrestling Rankings in Rhinelander
Speaker 3Yeah, willie Graham, stanley Boyd. Oh, where's there any strange towns on this one? There's get M&M again. Yeah. Man, they're really getting M&M yeah they are. Rhinelander Right on, I believe they're. I've heard that I've heard them bring a ball Again. It's before.
Speaker 2What's up? They were D1 for a couple. They keep going back and forth. They've been D2 and D1.
Speaker 3It's a small small town, isn't it Rhinelander? No, I mean that's D1 and D2. It's small, but it's not that small.
Speaker 2No but it's, I think your con is not that big.
Speaker 3Not very true. Yeah, very, very true. It's just because everybody moves here, that's all Okay. D3.
Speaker 2D3. Mander says he's 6'7" oh okay, all right Cool. Yeah, so you're right, cool Cherries, I guess, if you think 6'7".
Speaker 3It's tall, six foot six U. He's young Cherries, pretty young, 6'7". Yeah, that's that's you. That's Kale, right? I mean, that's what I was talking about, like the dudes. It's insane how big this kid is.
Speaker 2That must have a different guy in mind then. So Unless he grew, we watched.
Speaker 3We watched some of the WR Russell duels, the AWA duels, and we watched him wrestle and then, like I couldn't, he's the one that just beat Tyson Martin. I didn't even not watch him, like I just watched. Like I watched him warm up because he was so tall, then I watched him wrestle. So it was like, how are you making all that work? Oh yeah, you know, like it's just, it's impressive. So I high-fived him.
Speaker 2We are going to If you can reach it Like I don't know if you could.
Speaker 3No, but that was the thing is, some guys are trying to go upper body and like how are you going to do that when you're reaching six feet in the air? Yeah, You're not an underhook, that Right.
Speaker 2You're shooting on the legs but then he reaches over you as a headlocker.
Speaker 3I think I would try you would all day just like this yeah, all right, d3, d3. Folks, we're almost on. All right, we got some giveaway stuff to go with, so stick with us here. Um, let's see, I'll go through this.
Speaker 2Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3D3. Come on.
Speaker 2Pull it up. Bruinfelder Number one yeah, underwood, that'd be. I started on the bottom, so you start on the bottom.
Speaker 3Yeah, for some of Jackson bogats.
Speaker 2The nobles on there twice again.
Speaker 3So I got to that you should just bring the computer you work with here.
Speaker 2I don't know that's a huge Mac, I can't do it. Okay, I got desktop ones. What I use?
Speaker 3Oh, okay, it's a.
Speaker 2PC 42 inch, like a.
Speaker 3PC type thing. Yeah, you can still bring that one. Okay, tv Show you care, you know, just show you care.
Speaker 2You wouldn't be able to see my face.
Speaker 3Lies couple of freshmen. We talked about Parker Owens. I know him like under the top. I mean, do you hear it? It's accurate, oh yeah. So, 113 real quick. Come on 113. Drew Dolphin, that's accurate. Roger Fleegie.
Speaker 2You like Fleegie you do I'm at the King of the North. Yeah, what happened there? I don't know. I don't remember either.
Speaker 3I don't know. I was in the back by the wrestlers. I wasn't in by the bands. Yeah.
Speaker 3We were kind of watching, but then we were trying to get the screen working, so I wasn't watching a ton of the matches because I was trying to get everything going so the guys could hear it. Derek Goddard Demirath, mason Mason Demirath I was right over here, you know, so I've seen him wrestle a little bit when he was younger, so he's always been fun to watch. Lincoln Bayer I know that name, but Drew owns that. Yeah, drew's just too. It's kind of a weird way to say it, but he wrestles with Pizazz. Yeah.
Speaker 3Yeah, Did he sign somewhere? Can I? I think I thought I saw something but can I? Just let you know that we're at the With Wisconsin Red and he's Any leg cradle to kid Any pose for the camera Like this he's like mom, take my picture His track wrestling profile picture has to be like one of my favorite, I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 2He's like got a mohawk or something like when he's five. Oh yeah, like he's just like squeezing you, keep that one. Oh yeah.
Speaker 3He's just like posing for the camera like you said yeah, that's Drew is just, he's fun to watch, yeah, but I, fleagie, yeah, okay, we're gonna move on 120. I'm I can't make a decision there. It's hard, but I, I think Fleagie's too. But I know it's Connor.
Speaker 3Always fun to watch him. I know he pays attention to stuff on the show too, but he's just a fun kid to watch Russell. I think he'll move up. I have faith in that one. Jake Fitzpatrick, I mean, yeah, just he owns that spot too, so I can't argue there. Mason doing you know I might.
Speaker 2He. Shramps he was one and one with Kale Quineance last year. He panned him Mm-hmm.
Speaker 3Okay.
Speaker 2And Kale beat him like 10-3 or something. Okay, okay, it's just that feels that one doesn't feel right, but Numbers are numbers right, yeah, I mean, yeah, that's, I mean that's pretty accurate, that's gonna be. Isaiah.
Speaker 3Sanchez, that's pretty accurate. I give that accurate. Yeah. Yeah, he's a tough kid. Sometimes some matches get away. Yeah, he's a tough kid. That kid's worked hard too. Another one that's I can't believe he's still that small and Liam got that big because they used to wrestle each other. Oh yeah, so yeah, kind of odd. 126. D3, 126. Gerber. I've heard of Gerber several times and I've watched, I've seen, a couple of his matches. He's good looking. Sophomore Koji. Yeah, owns number one. I am gonna say this.
Speaker 2You're talking right, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3Yes, that's, that was a good match.
Speaker 2Oh yeah, that was a good match. I wonder what the? Catch weight was there because that's how. I wonder what the catch weight was like, what they had to weigh in on.
Speaker 3I don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 2Did Hocken just give up weight, maybe, maybe. I don't see him weighing 26.
Speaker 3So here's the thing with me, and I've always said this yeah. Because Liam's Like from day one, we didn't cut a lot. It was a couple pounds maybe just to get to the closest weight class he was at, you know, but we didn't cut right. So I don't buy it Fleegie, fleegie.
Speaker 2Yeah, what Teague's telling you? It's flaggy, I think is what he's saying. Flaggy I don't know how you said that.
Speaker 3That looks like fleegie to me. But okay, whatever Teague knows, he talks a lot of those people I'll go with flaggy. If you're wrong, teague, I'm going to find you, I will find you. Oh geez. I have your mailing address so we'll find you. Anyways, cogey's Cogey's dad brought up something that the stuff that they did in the past doesn't matter.
Speaker 3Oh, yeah, stuff in the future Okay so I want to touch on that for just a second real quick, because we're going to reach through these. The stuff you did in the past doesn't matter to the stuff that you do in the future, right, because things change, the dynamics change, the wrestlers change, the work ethic of your athlete or whoever doesn't change, then that's impressive, right, I mean it's watching what Cogey does on a daily basis. Damn, yeah, he's putting work in, just like those guys talk about. Right, no doubt he's won you know, rino's, and he's won all these huge accomplishments because he puts the work in.
Speaker 3Oh yeah, not everybody that does that. Does it pay off like that? Right, and especially as you get older, you may have been having that success before, which is great. And if you continue that work ethic and obviously he's going to like I'm not doubting that that kid's all of a sudden he's going to just stop. Yeah, you know he's going to keep going and he's going to get better and better and better and better. But, with that being said, the effects of growth and puberty and everybody grows at a different rate and if you can keep up, awesome. You know, there are the look at the bow bassets and Cogey's willing to keep up with just about anybody out there as well. They're ready to toe the line. It doesn't always calculate that just because you won Rino worlds, you're going to be, you know, a NCAA champion. Oh yeah for sure, State champ Sure, Sure.
Discussion on Wrestlers and Rankings
Speaker 3There's, the distance is a little closer, you know. But just because you won so much as a kid doesn't mean you're going to be doing that as someone that grew up. So I mean, I agree and I disagree, but you know, it's one of those things where it's just that. That's how I feel about it. I just think that just because you won, just because Liam took third at super 32, doesn't mean he's going to go out and win it the next year, right? There's other kids that are coming up, that are hard, you know, and again, cogey's putting the work in. There's no doubt that he's going to do things. So, but it's there. There are those kids that are out there and they exist. I mean, 77 and all that speaks volumes. So I get it. But that's just kind of my take on it. So, anyways, hinderman, I owe a grant. We talked about those guys the freshman a little bit before, but I didn't talk about him a lot. We kind of breezed over these guys. I think he's going to do good. Yeah, I think he's going to be.
Speaker 2He probably second in this way? I think so.
Speaker 3I'm pretty sure Um Birchman. That's another one, that's Fennimore dude. Yeah.
Speaker 3Got Tristan coming on tomorrow, but I mean cool, you have guys like that in the room. You're only bringing everybody else up, so I think he's going to be moving up too. Um, is it so Caleb Krause is a Krause or is a Krause? I would say Krause, krause, yeah, cause, I think it might Krause. I think he said Krause as well, but I know people that say Krause, okay, yeah, I'm not sure, so I'm going to leave that one out to the judges yeah, I'm sure Florence.
Speaker 2So what's that? It's Florence, niagara, right, I mean?
Speaker 3I heard the Aquinas parents and they would find me before you do.
Speaker 2So they probably know.
Speaker 3Probably, yeah, probably. Thank you, aquinas, parents. If, unless you're just yelling at T, good night, watch the show, so it's okay. Um, we appreciate it. Thank you very much, thank you, thank you, thank you 132. Yeah, 132 moving on Um so Dylan Brody, bertie Shaw, that's on the bottom Rowan Kerry. Yeah.
Speaker 2Um, I'm going to fight for not around this one For sure Rowan's beat him at state both years, I'm sure. Yeah, I'm still fighting for him, second line away, because he's a stealth guy, you know yeah, this is a stealth guy and I'm fighting for that, so can't stop me.
Speaker 3Oh yeah, I can't, but can't stop me, won't stop me, but I'm going. I think a renter is going to go, number one. I think he's going to beat Rowan. Yeah let me.
Speaker 2Wouldn't be the first time, I don't think, but no but I think it's a state. It would be the first time.
Speaker 3Uh, respect to Rowan Kerry, I think, kids, he's an animal, he's a Sarbakar kid, you know so uh it's always been a little brother coming up too, I believe he sure does.
Speaker 2I think he's a middle school. I think I think it's Liam.
Speaker 3Yeah, yep, they didn't ask if they could use Liam, all right.
Speaker 2Uh, let's see. Are there Stevens, though. He's good, had a good freshman year 54 last year.
Speaker 3Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yep, very yep, that's true, very true, yep, I did, we digress to get the mention in here. So, tristan verbatim, cassime, key, yeah, this is accurate. 138. Yeah, 138, d3 everybody. Uh, dawson Johnson, obviously we know. Good Um, mason Carpenter, also good yeah Um, wyatt Unzer, just as good. Elliot Bip, I see like this is another one where it's like oh, I know the top two. I mean I've, I've watched those guys for quite a while. Yeah, they finals last two years, right, um, but even before that, this is a lurky, lurky in the bottom.
Speaker 3Okay, okay I mean this is pretty accurate. This is good. Yeah, I can take 138 here and that's honestly, it's a, it's kind of an eating crap. Yep, that's really. Did they wrestle? Did him and Colton ever wrestle? I can again. You're going to say, well, yeah, it's, I don't remember, I'm not looking at, I don't know they're they're different weights, uh, but I mean technically, Wiler placed higher than him in 20, 22.
Speaker 2Okay, At the same weight.
Speaker 3This is like I said. This is why I need spreadsheets to do stuff.
Speaker 2Yeah, I'm probably sure that, based on all of the best knowledge and stuff that I remember from last year.
Speaker 3Blake carton, that's accurate. Um, I'm not sure that's accurate. Um you know, I might argue for Sturgill. Yeah, oh, which one's that this is bottom of 144. Okay, yeah, I mean you got tight Denny up there yeah. He's hmm, All right, it's. I mean, it's fairly accurate. This is like it would only Sturgill be up like one, one or two spots. Yeah, and that's about it. Okay, 150 D, three, 150. Um, I wish I knew more about siler, but I don't, obviously.
Speaker 2Third, I saw him at the chief head is where kind of. I mean he was on my like he wouldn't varsity till last year, I believe. Yeah, but he placed it freestyle on Greco in that summer between his freshman and softball and that's when he got on my radar and then I saw him at. She said he was beaten uh, connor Smith, and we got on top and cradle him, so okay, but we are losing in the third period to him. He's pretty good.
Speaker 3And Moff is another one that I see that, uh, that that's accurate, I would grant.
Speaker 2D three is going to be hard to do. Team rankings, I'll tell you that, yeah, between a lot of the, I mean obviously, I mean obviously finna more yeah, but the rest yeah, like the two through eight. Yeah, that could be different.
Speaker 3Yeah, I mean there are a lot of these teams here that have I mean they have some history.
Speaker 2Again, and I'm going to. I'm going to put myself out here though.
Speaker 3Independence. Where. What's the town name? Gil, gilmont? Spread this out Gilmont or Gilmonton. What's the C? Huh, what is the C on the end of there? Oh, that's it, nevermind, that's their sectional dirt to dirt. There you go, cause there's two slashes. But I thought maybe you just putting the town in because you've been, you know, messing grades up and stuff too yeah.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 3Independence Never even heard of it.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 3Never heard of that school, never heard of even the towns. Oh yeah. Independence Wisconsin.
Speaker 2Missouri.
Speaker 3Sorry, colin, I don't mean to not spread the hate on you, I just don't. I've never heard of the towns. Okay, okay, talking about that, I guess there's two in there. Still a similar one. Yeah, apparently某 One Z. Yeah, here's where the narrative ends Pop All like hp is getting too. Telephoto, like just got to basketball, and even the skills 3. Justin, he owns it. Micah Cukda I think Liam wrestled him as well, cukda. Yeah. Is it Cukda?
Speaker 3Yeah, I think so Okay, I was already wrong, so I'll take your word for it. Jackson Bussey, it's another good one. I know of him. Liam's wrestled with him and around him for quite some time, though I've seen the same grade Good wrestler, I think you're top four, accurate Main sprung. Okay, I would move Whitehorse up. I just don't think the record speaks volumes. Yeah. You know what I'm saying. I've seen him wrestle. I think he's got a little more in him than where he's at, but again, my opinion.
Speaker 2He was up at 70 last year, yeah, so yeah, he's coming down a lot.
Speaker 3Yeah, that's why I think he's definitely put in the work somewhere.
Speaker 2He's a little long.
Speaker 3Yeah, all right. Other than that, that's when I'd fight to move. Yeah, the top ones are fine. Top five that looks good. 165, d3. There's not enough for me to go off of to argue any of this to be wrong. Banco has been doing really well.
Speaker 2I could see Kade Rule.
Speaker 3Kade Rule, I would put him up at two. Yeah, I would almost argue him to beat.
Speaker 2Nash yeah, no, that's what I'm saying. I can't see him.
Speaker 3Yeah, I would argue that, was that a weight change? Yeah, okay.
Speaker 2Big.
Speaker 3I was going to say that 32 last year. He should be at number one, I think. Sorry, nash, nash has been working his ass off. Nothing to say about Auburn. Dale's got some good kids. Tubbs, yep, yeah, yeah, that's the only one I'd argue is the Kade Rule. Yeah. I think he's going to do it. Yeah, 113 to 132, all the way up to this. Wow, that kid blew up. He was getting really good at 132 as well. Probably had to get bigger to beat his sister. Yeah, no kidding, right? Yeah?
Speaker 2His sister was a stud.
Speaker 3Yeah, she's. I can only imagine she still is. Oh yeah, david Mallen, great grab for the Badgers. Torn VandenBush also good Trust the next time that kid's an animal. That's a good time too. Blaschke yep, you know, I would argue Blaschke. Yeah. Again, I'm just me. Yeah, one spot, though One spot. I just think he's a little, just a little more savvy.
Speaker 2And he's holding the weight for Correct, correct.
Speaker 3Owen Morgan. I might argue he's got a lot of matches, you know. I mean he's a senior, he's been. Yeah, that's just because you rest. A lot of matches doesn't mean anything, but he's been. You know what I'm saying. He's been getting a little bit better. I'd move him up a spot, but I'll take it away from Carter. Okay, 190 D3. Tyson Martin owns it. Yeah, that's his spot. Brison Kelly, you know.
Speaker 2I didn't know what to do.
Speaker 3That's a mover. I think he's a one spot mover Swap. Yeah, swap, though, is for sure, they got Elijah Sanchez.
Speaker 2Last year. You know who's that, bryson yeah.
Speaker 3Yeah, yeah, I get you up. He was. He had a couple injuries last year. Yeah.
Speaker 2But he's getting better. For sure.
Speaker 3Elijah Sanchez.
Speaker 2Like I said, that family's got kids wrestling Same with the last West Bieber or Viper.
Speaker 3Yeah, bieber, it's Bieber.
Speaker 2Yeah, that was sheriff Yup, so many of those too.
Speaker 3Yeah, so I know, I know, is it West Bieber? Yeah. Was it Okay? I want to make sure it wasn't.
Speaker 2Weston, no West. Bieber, I think you're right.
Discussion on Wrestling Rankings and Giveaways
Speaker 3But he was um, oh, he's a fun family to be around at wrestling tournaments. Those guys are a blast, Dad's a sheriff and they're all just a fun time to be around.
Speaker 2This is another very deep weight class too, like I remember it being like same as.
Speaker 3Carter, yeah, yeah, aiden or Adler strong, that's yeah, these are good wrestlers.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 3I would say at least I would say a good 65 to 70% of these kids are going to be tough against each other. If they wind up wrestling each other, yeah, so yeah, this is accurate, it's pretty good. 215. Um, trammack, yup, um, I would. Let's see what we got here. This one's pretty good too. Well, I know.
Speaker 2I have the, the returning state, run up at fourth. But like he, like he had such a crazy tournament yeah, like he had so few matches, I think, if I'm remembering right but he like came out of nowhere and got second in that bracket and I he, he definitely could be up. Don't don't get me wrong, it was just kind of seemed fluky. I know he has a pretty good decent record too.
Speaker 2I was going to slap you for that one, but I don't know, it's just something I just apparently I have a bias against somebody too.
Speaker 3I don't know, you do. Yeah, I, I bias here, so that I mean that's other than that I was going to argue that one, because I think he, you know, obviously took second.
Speaker 2Yeah, and I got the sixth place at that same way. I mean, I understand, it looks stupid.
Speaker 3Right, I don't do all the numbers you do this is okay, I would maybe. I would maybe move Bader that I say his last name, matthew, I think it's Bader.
Speaker 2Oh, yeah, not Boter, he want CUNY.
Speaker 3Yeah yeah, no CUNY grow, yeah, yeah. Yeah, that's a sectional. I keep looking at that.
Speaker 2Like I don't know why I'm looking at that. I believe him and his brother are like we're, going back and forth between heavyweight and two 20 last year, because they both yeah, this is a good.
Speaker 3this is a good set of time. I'm going to couple of arguments here. Couple of arguments Um 285, where people fall asleep oh, you got it. Yeah, they're already fall asleep. Um Evan Gratz, that's pretty accurate. Take care of businesses here, evan. Take care of business Um Ben and Hoffman, canado.
Speaker 2Yeah, Just happened. Gratz and Hoffman at at. Uh, big cheese, I believe so yeah.
Speaker 3I watched a couple of matches and um I want at least Stromberg and Hoffman I know Gratz did what he was expecting to do.
Speaker 3No, he lost Dude Stromberg, oh, stromberg, no, no, no, no, I picked Stromberg, you're right. Yeah, yeah, that's, that's my brain fart. Um, I did pick Stromberg. I think that was in my comments with with the fellows, right? Um, okay, I, magnus Hilgers, you know, I think maybe I would argue to go up one more spot. Um, but oh yeah, I mean State qualifier up there. This is a. There's definitely been tougher weights yeah, yeah, but I mean, evan owns the number one. Oh, yeah, oh, okay, um yeah.
Speaker 3Like I said, that's really the only one. I think that I would argue on that one so well, I mean, I think overall you did all right, you know? Yeah, thanks, I might have my arguments. Right, yeah, I have my arguments. My little things that I want to say, but I think it was good, I think you did a good job. Hold on, yeah, hold on, um so folks we wrapped up on.
Speaker 3I'm going to see if I can find a screen here that just highlights just the two of us. I thought I set one up. Nope, sure Didn't there. What if I, uh, let's just remove this one. There we go. Okay, so we just have us two here. So, um, I mean honestly, where are you as far as the team team rankings? I mean, do you have a team ranking? I mean, do you do a preseason one with them? Do you like just put numbers together from the past season and obviously not go off of and then you know what the kids are? Now, right, you know the kids. You kind of know the lineups already. Are you able to do it? Base a team one off of that?
Speaker 2Uh, I have started, but it's. It's kind of hard Like cause. I don't know that. That's their weights for sure, and you know there's something I guarantee I haven't heard of, yet.
Speaker 3Believe that the Tegan Steve.
Speaker 2Yeah, yeah, they, they're all over that stuff, yeah.
Speaker 3Well, like I mean God this is the information. Oh yeah, the amount of information. Um, I'm going to go over real quick. Uh, we're going to do, I'm going to show the people to give away Number one. Don't forget about this one. Okay, there's already a post out on it.
