Duncan is a 112 wrestler. Are wrestlers aloud to move up a weight on Team Kentucky or do they just have to wrestle the weight that they wrestled at State?

Belk from Gray is at 117. Duncan and Ray wrestled off for alternate position.

The kids don't have to wrestle the weights that they won state in. Team Kentucky Coaches can make adjustments that would be most beneficial for the team.

You are correct, but you do not have to wrestle off if you won state in a certain weight class. In Belk's case he wasn't sure if he was going to wrestle 117 or move to 124. I(being his dad and a coach) told his it would be in his best intrests to wrestle 117 again rather than move up and wrestle off. But you are absolutly correct, the coach can move anyone he wishes. Duncan and Ray wrestled off for alternate Ninja. I am sure with Meiman deciding to wrestle this will be a team to beat. Not sure about the lower classes, but with Binder, L.Erdman, Hiedorf, J.Erdman, Shirkey, Belk, Frankrone, D.Lampe, Meiman, Matthews, and not too sure on rest will be a heck of a duel team.

were are the practices for team Kentucky, I was going to wrestle for bluegrass warriors but i decided not to and I got third at 124 lbs

I think team ky is set

The warriors practice at st x

I believe the line up will look like this:

75- Scheffer 2x state champ

80- Binder 2 x state champ

85- Wiley 2x state champ (MOW-2011)

90- Hurst Runner up

95- L. Erdmen state champ

102- Heidorf state champ

110- Shirkey state champ

117- Belk state champ

125- Frankone 2x state champ ( MOW-2010)

132- Lampe state champ

140- Meimen state champ

150- Warwick state champ

160- Mathews 2x state champ

175-

195-

220-

275-

I have no clue on the bottom 4. Looks like a solid team, hopefully they will make it out of there pool and into the gold pool. 5 two time state champs are nice, especially since 4 of them will be returning next year. I dont believe kentucky has never placed higher than 9. Good luck next weekend boys.

This is the final line up:

75- Sheffer

80- Binder

85- Wiley

90- Hurst

95- L. Erdman

102- J. Erdman

110- Shirkey

117- Belk

125- Frankrone

132- Lampe

140- Meiman

150- Warwick

160- Mathews

175- Underwood

195- Weird

220- Davis

275- Brown

Alternates:

95- Barton

125- Oxford

150- Miller

90, 102, 160 and 275 were settled with wrestle offs this past weekend.

All the wrestlers mentioned with "runner up" listed behind their names (in my opinion) could have won it that particular year. ALL the wrestlers listed here should be proud of they're accomplishments. Hard work pays. Good luck guys.

Belk is out at 117, he is giving it up to Duncan due to weight. He weighed in at 123.5 saturday. His doctor told him not to drop any more weight, because of his body fat ratio. He has a bright future next year at a heavier weight class. He is upset that he can't wrestle with team Kentucky, and wishes them well. He will go with them and maybe wrestle some exibitions. Good luck Keegan.

I wish more parents would consult with doctors about cutting weight. I know he hates to miss, but you did the right thing.

Thanks DBW, There is alot more wrestling left after 8th grade. The kid has a bright future, and we feel we are doing the correct thing. Here at Gray/Ryle feel that kids come first, and these kids health is the first priority. I am glad to see that there is other members concerned about the future of our young wrestlers.

So Matthews moved up and Warwick moved down?

Yes the Warriors practice at St. X but also have had and will have practice at Trinity and South Oldham.
