state duels - surprise teams

Topic ID: 1782 | 7 Posts

A lot has been said about Larue winning, trinity beating Woodford, and North Hardins 3rd place finished, but I think some KUDOS need to be given to Seneca with a 4th place finish, and to Dunbar making it to the finals - not many had said anything about them making it so far, congratulations to both teams!!

i agree, dunbar was a complete shocker, i knew they were good, but i didn't know they were that good.

Biggest suprise this year, without a doubt was LaRue County. They did not have their starting 145, the 171 was a replacement from the original starter and had only a few matches at that weight, the 119 had only been back a week and a half, the 189 weighs about 165, Darwin Perez stepping up big in big matches. Heck, even the all knowing and all seeing wizardry of Ranger 123 could give them no better than fifth and I personally think that was generous. I could go on and on, but for us to beat the full lineup for Woodford, Dunbar, Seneca (minus their 160), Wayne and Harrison was just crazy. I give all respect to Dunbar, Seneca, Trinity, North Hardin and Woodford because, on paper, they (as were most of the teams on Saturday) just better than LaRue, of course paper's just good for two things....writing on and wiping your you know what with! :-D

Larue did step it up big at a big time

i thought it was kind of funny how nobody expected north oldham to get in there. and then nobody expected them to get a decent placing... and then they got 9th... i thought that was pretty funny

how did they get placed i thought only the top 6 were placed the others just got an extra dual

Is there really a need for another thread?
