Wrestling Thoughts by "Big Mac"

"Will They Repeat?"

(11/28/04) #2 (2004-2005)

 

Will They Repeat?

Well, since there are several returning state champs I decided to make my predictions on if they will repeat or not. 

Sincerely, Big Mac

Name

Division/School

Predicted Weight

Yes or No

Reason

TJ Wunnicke

2, Dodgeville

112

No

He might have to beat Brian Barbiaux and Kyle Reeve.

Brian Barbiaux

2, Luxemburg Casco

112

No

I don’t think he can beat Kyle Reeve.

Josh Hansen

1, Wisconsin Rapids

112

Yes

He will have some tough completion but he should be able to handle it.

Kyle Reeve

2, Wisconsin Heights

112

Yes

He will have to deal with Wunnicke and Barbiaux but he should be able to beat them.

Chris Klister

3, Wrightstown

119

No

I don’t think he will beat Mo Malone for a second year. Also he might have Sarbacker to worry about.

Eric Metzler

2, Luxemburg-Casco

112-119

Yes

He will have some competition, but should deal with it easily.

Gabe Stoplemoor

3, Turtle Lake/Clayton

135

Yes

He showed that he was a quality wrestler last season.

Joe Clothier

2, Clinton

135-40

?

It is way too early to determine a lot of the middle weights

Andy Geving

2, Osceola

160-71

Yes

Very good wrestler. Beat some of the best wrestlers at his weight last year as a junior so he should be able to do it easily as a senior.

Jon Lechleitner

2, Stanley-Boyd

140-45

Yes

He beat an undefeated senior in the finals last year

Dustin Perry

1, Merrill

145-52

Yes

He went undefeated as a So. And had to beat seniors. To win the title last year.

Kevin Nolan

He went undefeated as a junior and he had to beat some tough seniors to win the title last year.
