MAn, states already in Kentucky? States here in Jersey aren't untill March 10-11..that weekend..We havent even begun our groups here in Jersey..they'll start on Tuesday..
This year for some reason they moved State ahead some days, its generally between the 23rd-30th of Feb., but this yr its atleast a whole week earlier, so i mean we generally do it a tiny bit later, but none the less we all will be ready to wrestle, thanks for the support

I will tell ya guys what happened when i get back on saturday night, but i dont have to leave till wednesday night so i have time to work on things that need tweaked b4 that time comes, i havea great great shot to place as long as my shoulder stays healthy through the whole tourny, but as it has shown all season it is not the most reliable shoulder, but if i can keep it healthy through the week while still wrestling at practice i think it will be fine

hmmm i hope, its for not going to be easy, cuz last yr he placed 4th at 103 as a freshman, while last yr i was sick for state and could not wrestle to the best of my ability and then again something happens to me this yr, i hurt my shoulder a few weeks back and it never fully recovered, and he was going 103 this yr while i stuck all yr at 112, but at regionals he just happens to jump up to 112 or something, maybe he didnt make weight, not sure?
and in the random draw for state i happen to get him, bad luck for me i guesss, but ill wrestle my A$$ off and hope for the best, but wont be discouraged if i lose, ill just make up the loss in "wrestle back hell" as they like to call it, its basically the consolation matches (if you dont know what those are they are the losers to wrestle for 3rd/4th, 5th/6th, 7th/8th or atleast wrestle and work their way to those placing postitions) and hopefully ill get in good position to place as long as my shoulder holds up, *knocks on wood*

btw hes been ranked 3rd in the state at 103 all yr and basically wrestling up so that should make up for his advantage because of the weight, tho weight is not that big of a deal when its only 10 pounds...

well well well, state was tough again this yr, i wrestled a very tough match first round against spancer and lost by only a few points, some calls could have gone either way to make the match go towards me, he was a stout wrestler, but i held in fine, but he ended up winning by about 3 or so points, not to bad...
then i went down to the consolation bracket, i wrestled a kid that was pretty decent, it was close with me winning by about 5 and by the mid of the 3rd period he started to die out (aka gas out) and ran out of energy and since im in great conditioned shape i kept going and ithrew him to his back and stuck him (aka pinned him)...
then i went on to the next round and wrestled a kid ranked 11th, while at the moment i was ranked 10th in state and it was a prety close match, with me coming out on top by 2 points, 4-2, i was very aggressive, atleast more then usual and was up 4-0 early and then he fought 2 points out of me at the very very end, but i still pulled out the big W
finally i got to the match that i had been dreading since he (Lucas Carman) lost to the soon to be state champ Coty Lewis, while Lucas Carman is ranked 3rd in the state and he lost in the early rounds to the State champ, so i had to wrestle him, and i wrestled him very well, i think he was shocked that i was actually giving him a run for his money, i was actually winning 2-0 early in the first period (theres 3 periods if ya didnt know) cuz i got a good takedown veryearly and was dominating, but like a good wrestler he was fighting back, well i put legs in on him, which is a ride they use in wrestling often, well i got really high and he was trying to shake me off by getting in a tripod position and shaking his hips to swing me off, well i was sliding forward and he grabbed my head with one arm and pulled me hard down, and of course...
i landed on my shoulder (note this was in the middle of the 3rd cuz in the 2nd he just rode me and i couldnt get off the bottom cuz that was his specialty) and sincei had that hurt shoulder i went to my back and he got the 2 near fall so that made it 2-2, and then i fought off my back after 2 seconds of being on it and thats 2 back points 4-2 in favor of him, well i fought off my back, and there was about a min left in the last period (3rd) and i couldnt get off bottom especially since my shoulder was thrashing with pain, so he ended up beating me 4-2, but i wrestled very well this weekend, but i still have my senior yr to look forward to, next yr i will hopefully be a favorite going into it, baring i have no injuries lol... i cant wait to get back to the off-season wrestling! gunna be great!

You said you were ranked 10th, is that what seed you were for the tournament also, and how many wrestlers per weight class wrestle in your state tournament?

No, the seeds go as seed 1,2,3,4 in each 4 person bracket, if you get 1st in your region you wrestle someone that got 4th in a different region and if you get 2nd in your region then you wrestle someone that got 3rd in a diff region, 1 v 4, 2 v 3, i had a 2nd seed in the tourny but i wrestled spencer first, he got 3rd in his region because he has the now new state champ in his region and the kid thay placed 4th in state this yr, Corey Specer ended up getting 7th...
there are 32 men per weight class at state

Well it seems to me that next year you should be the man to beat. Hope you can get your shoulder to get better. That way you'll be unstoppable. You did great man.

yea, hopefully that will be the case, because i will probably go 125 next yr and alot of seniors are graduating this yr so ill be in good shape for next yr, new competition is a good thing, ill be wrestling ALL off season, and going to about 10 camps, and wrestling in AAU wrestling during the summer, should be a great offseason for me, ill be working my bootay off in order to have a great senior yr and will hopefully be a force to reckon with next yr...
