2002-2003 - Who will wrestle Where?

[luv2pin]

Who do you feel will wrestle at the high school weights
next year?
103-275
I think it would be fun to speculate where everyone will
be for next year.
After seeing the weight gains of some of the kids this
past weekend:   W   O   W
some of the 103lb this year are wrestling 119 - 125
some of the 112lb this year are wrestling 140 - 145
let us know what you think?

Who were some of the 112 lbs at 140 - 45 and the 103 at 119 - 25?  Some are probably just having their growth spurts.

In the Class B of the state Champs I think it will go like this.

Lennick - 103
Haugen - 125
Kerr - 125
Chase - 130
Henderson - 135
Reis - 140
Neshiem - 145
Imdieke - 160
Bitz - 275

For Class A I think it will go

Glasser - 112
Lang - 125
Stockert - 130
Bastings - 130
Covington - 140
Michaelson - 160

Look for Class A to be loaded next year between 119 and 140 with Lang, Wallace, Mellmer, Stockert, Sebeluis, Bastings, Krumm, Hilfer, Bischof, Covington, White, and Kok among others.
Some may try to go up to 145, but they better lift wieghts in the off-season.
There's not a lot of room to duck and run from the best of the best, but in this group, with no disrespect to any of the others, Covington is going to be the toughest to beat. He's not as explosive and dominating as he probably could be, but he's tougher than hell to score on. I've seen him wrestle a few times and he just never gets out of good position.

[luv2pin]

Basting said is is going to go 130
Covington - 135 - from Phil?

Mellmer said he is going 125

Lang I think 125

These are the only ones that have said anything.

i really hope that some of those guys dont wimp out and go to some other weight class instead or going where they should and wrestling tougher kids.....i mean it would be so great for a lang/mellmer finals at every tourney they are in.....thats what is good for wrestling and publicity for the sport not for some kid to walk thro some weight class that they over match every kid the wrestle talents wise......thats the one advantage class b has b/c there are good kids every where ....that will atleast challenge u...in class a tho bastings will easily walk thro it with out a fight and so will covey if white avoids him like he probly will.........later

ND wrestler--I don't if there is a lot of room to run--just looking at that entry by Les Moore. He brought up several good wrestlers that could challenge for state titles and there aren't  enough weight classes to go around.
I have to disagree, though about saying that class B has good wrestlers at every weight.  Look at the state Freestyle results  this year.--It's all Class A kids.  even the best of B like Jesse Laber couldn't beat the best of Class A kids. Class B has more parody, but definately not better quality that Class A. You can't convince me that the B state champs would win more than a couple matches (145, maybe 103 or 125) against the Class A state champs.

[new guy]

[chs wrestler]

[WDA Watcher]

BHS wrestlers:

160 Alex Engelherdt (Crazy ?)
171 Nate Riser (Knee ?)
189 Jordan Engelhardt (BBall ?)
215 Aaron Silbernagel (Hunting ?)
HWT they have a big Soph.

More people talking nuts about bsimarck high wrestlers .Silbernagle may enjoy hunting but he'll probably be hunting for a state championship in February and don't act suprised when he gets it. Also leave Englehardt alone, and just watch him drop everybody. Unless you know what your talking about keep your nuts talking mouths shut, HUH.

[George]

He's not saying that englehart won't be tough. He and alot of other people wonder if englehart can make it through a whole season with out getting into trouble. And personally me and many others do think he's nuts.

While I'm not at liberty to comment specifically about Alex, I will say there are medical conditions such as clinical depression, bi-polar disorder, etc., which affect a persons behavior. Couple that with experiencing all of the "teenager pressures" that occur and you can see there are explanations for irrational behavior. These conditions are very real. Personally, Alex has been a handful to coach, but I have not given up on him. Where would someone who struggles with these types of issues be without athletics to give them a chance to become successful? Alex's teachers are very complimentary of him this year--and I honestly feel he has turned the corner. I'm hoping I've enlightened many of you who are critical of him to maybe give him another chance. He does have a very nice side.
