Everyone, 

I wanted to take a minute to thank Chris Duke and Mike Harrod for taking the time to create middle school rankings for the state of Kentucky.  After volunteering to keep them going, several of us from the Oldham County area have realized the amount of time to research and create the rankings is no small task.  The rankings should serve as a fun opportunity for the kids to receive some recognition throughout the wrestling season.  We completely understand that some kids will change weights, move weight  classes, wrestle for high school teams, this upcoming season.  Please share results, match into, etc. via email throughout the season and we as a group will update the rankings accordingly.  We were able to throw together a top 5/6ish list for all classes from 70-105.  Classes 113 and above become challenging considering many in the upper weight classes were 8th graders.  So, for classes 113 and above there is a listing of kids in various weights that we can eventually put in order when the tournaments begin.  We hope to gather information from across the state via email for tournaments and duals(duels) that are not on trackwrestling for the upcoming season.  If you would like to share information please email Matt Brown at [email protected] or Brent Dunn at [email protected].  We will try to add a team ranking component as we get into the season.  Please remember we are doing the best we can and want to provide recognition to the kids and want to be as unbiased as possible.  I know everyone is chomping at the bit to get started and here's to a great 2019.20 wrestling season.  

Thanks 

Matt Brown

I do now 

How do they come up with the rankings?

It's basically state results with the 8th graders removed at first. Couple of the kids were moved around after Bluegrass games. Plus what people have emailed and told them.

Is that supposed to be Joshua Strayer instead of Haidyn Giles of Anderson County at 105? Haidyn didn't place at State and is a freshman this year, Joshua placed 5th at State.

On another note, thank you for stepping in and keeping this going.

Hey all, 

I have received a lot of positive feedback from many of you.  We will try to to do a revision of the rankings when we get closer to the season.  We will take out all the 9th graders and look more closely at certain kids who need to be moved up or down.  Continue to send emails with information and thanks again

When two kids are ranked above you that she beat I call that preseason motivation

Way to step up! Glad the rankings will continue! But I did see a couple of 9th graders still ranked ...  But it will all come together soon. . Looking forwards to the updates!  

No one should get upset over where kids sit.  All does not matter till end of season where they stand/if they are standing on podium.
