2017 WSAZ Tournament in Huntington West Virgina

Topic ID: 13412 | 26 Posts

I am only Tracking two teams going to this very challenging Tournament in WV this weekend. Both Meade and John Hardin got some very favorable seeds this year. Each weight class can have up to 64 wrestlers and only the top 16 get seeded. Teams from KY, WV, OH, PA, NJ, NC, and TN are a few of the states who sent teams this year. You can do more research on your own if you want to at WVmat.com ( http://wvmat.com/temp/17wsazhs2.pdf )

The Seeds have been released for the 2017 WSAZ Tournament in Huntington West Virgina.

John Hardin will Join Meade County this year at the Tournament.

Has Trent Johnson ever wrestled Humphrys? Should be one heck of a match. Humphreys is an animal, but his cardio looked a little supspect when I saw him this year. I think Trent wins this match up. Also saw some former KY wrestlers by the last name of Whorton seeded #1 at 106 and 126. Glad to see they are continuing their success. I thought Johnson Central was supposed to be at this tournament. I didn't see any of their guys listed. 

Is this on Track Wrestling to follow?

Johnson Central will be there.

 

Doubt that it will be on Track.  Go to wvmat.com and you should be able to find a link to the tournament Friday.

When did the Whorton's move? Completely forgot about them. Also, Johnson Central not listed anywhere in the seeds. That's going to throw a wrench in the seeds when they do show up. Some people won't be happy when they face those big boys of JC in the early rounds and get knocked out after being seeded higher. 

The seeds have been adjust a little. Johnson central and Boyle Co. listed in the line ups. Only notable change was trent Johnson now #3 seed. They both have some seeded wrestlers now. JC mostly in upper weights and Boyle in the mid to lower weights. 

That looks better seeing those JC guys in there.  145 must be a butt kicker of a bracket to drop Trent to 3.

Thanks!  It is always fun to watch quality KY kids against out of state competition.

WSAZ.com will have a link to follow the tournament 

Hope to see all the Kentucky Kids do well, Boyle should have several wrestlers do well, Meade and John Hardin both have strong wrestlers at weights and should be successful, Johnson Central always tough and should outplace all of them. Glad to see some Kentucky boys get some high seeds Blanton, Smallwood, and Jett all with #1 seeds, awesomeness!!!

Joe Jackson 170 and Brady Taylor 195 both of JC are 2 seeds. 

Went to the wsaz page and still no brackets? Am i looking in the wrong spot? I can only find the seeds still.

Could someone post a link to brackets, I can't locate them.

Scroll down and you will see a "view results here"

HS is done for the day. Meade county has 3 still in the winners bracket. Roger young Jr, Dalton Jett, and Bryan pratt all went 2-0. Not sure how JHHS or JC wrestlers did. By team scores they must of did good. Meade is currently sitting at 9th, JHHS is 6th and JC is third overall in the AAA class. Not bad having 3 KY teams in the top 10. Congrats to all tonight. There was some real battles today. This tournament is no Joke.

JC still has 7 in the winners bracket and a few kids in the consolation bracket. There in 2nd place overall in the team standings. 

John hardin only took 9 guys.  5 are still fighting their way to the top. 2 are in consos. 

John hardin has 4 in the semis. 106, 120, 145 and 152.

Johnson central has 2 and Meade has 1 in semis.

John hardin is in 4th place,  johnson central  in 6th and Meade 18th I think. John has 3 in finals and 2 in consos,  johnson central has 2 in finals 6 in consos,  Meade with 1 in finals 2 in consos.  Not bad for  KY.

JC had a bunch of guys get upset. Tough tourney

Meade has 3 wrestlers left. Roger young jr 3rd or 4th @138, Dalton Jett 5th or 6th @ 195, Paul Perry 7th or 8th @ 106. Team is currently sitting at 9th in AAA DIVISON.

Meads - Young Jr. placed 4th, Jett placed 5th and Perry placed 7th. 

Just had an opportunity to look at the final results. Our KY guys did well. Very impressed with John Hardin. Garcia knocking off Whorton. Haverstick earning 3rd. Smallwood taking 1st. Johnson wrestling Humphreys to a 4-2 match. Very very good results. Congrats to John Hardin for a very solid performance.

Josh Johnson is one of the best Coaches in the State. Great young man who truly loves, understands and continues to study our sport. He will prove to be one of the best. Only 25 yrs old , lots of time to take KY Wrestling to a much higher level.
