Results for our high school recruits?
- Thread starter Shpsu
- Start date
I normally put one together each year. I was tryto get to it before I went on vacation, but that didn’t happen. I’ll be home on Tuesday, and we’ll post it then.
No need to double down on your shame. We still love you Thomas.
To get it started:
- Duke won NY States.
- Henckel won National Preps.
- Blaze moved up to 150 for the Ohio postseason to help his team -- he actually has to over-hydrate to make minimum weight. IIRC they're thru regionals and he's won every round.
- Herring, Perry, and Cunningham all won regionals.
- Herring got the 3-seed at states, and can win but won't be the favorite with 2 returning finalists in his bracket.
- Perry got the 1 and should win, though it's a good weight and he'll face some speed bumps.
- Cunningham got the 1 and should pin or tech the field. There are some good wrestlers, but none at his level. He teched the next best guy at regionals.
I'll let others fill in the details.

I am ready to over hydrate just reading this.

For our guys there:
Sam Herring, AA 139: Herring got the 3 seed behind last year's finalists at 133. This weight is a 3-horse race, and all 3 are relatively even; Herring can win this. He will get a rematch in the sems vs. Bishop McDevitt's returning finalist Camden Baum, who's headed to Purdue. Herring beat Baum 4-2 earlier this year. Win that, and he'll get Montgomery's returning champ Brandt Harer (Rutger) in the finals. Harer beat Herring 1-0 this year. All 3 are juniors, so this could happen again next year.
Dalton Perry, AAA 145: Perry got the 1 seed. He's the best guy at the weight, but not a lock to win. This is a good weight, though most of the better guys are on the bottom half. Perry should make the finals with only one possible speed bump, Abington Heights' NE champ Michael Turi (Cornell) in the semis. His most likely finals challenger will be Council Rock North's 2-seed Eren Sement (Michigan), who has finished 3rd 3x. Sement will need to get past Baldwin's Ramil Islamov (West Virginia) -- Islamov lost 7-6 to Perry at regionals.
Asher Cunningham, AAA 172: Cunningham got the 1 seed and will win the weight. He'll likely pin or tech the field. It's a decent weight, but he teched his likely finals opponent at regionals.
Sam Herring, AA 139: Herring got the 3 seed behind last year's finalists at 133. This weight is a 3-horse race, and all 3 are relatively even; Herring can win this.

Perry and Cunningham both made the finals.
Perry gets 3x S3 Eren Sement, who's headed to Michigan. Will be a tough match, with Perry a slight favorite.
Cunningham gets S3 Bode Marlow in a rematch of the West Regional final, which Asher won 18-3.
Herring lost 4-2 to Baum on a counter takedown with about 15 sec left in the 3rd. He now drops into consi semis, but should take 3rd. The only 2 guys at his level are in the finals.
Karenbauer lost 10-1 in the semis. Pretty big upset.
