John Deno at Athens?

[90buckeye]

River Valley just dropped out. I just posted an updated seed nominations list taking them out and factoring in what seed challenges have been submitted thus far.

Seeds, lol... Let's just see what happens on the mat... I notice some have moved up in weight... Interesting...

well said, seeds dont matter, but hard work does!

well said, seeds don't matter, but hard work does!

Seeds do matter in a tournament with several good kids in a weight class, then seeding can make a big difference.

Hard work gets the seeds and the win.

Any updates?

Seeds do help 125 Dakota Hook got burnt by this. Somehow still not sure the 125 from Philo Ernfield ended up #3 and got in late. Dakota ended up 4 seed and lost to Barlow 5-2 in semis Barlow beat Ernfield like 18-3 in finals. So seeding does help but the most important part is just win baby and they don't matter but do help.

Could someone post individual results? It's annoying to have to go to another site, because you may not want to leave the site you're already on!

Nice job Buckeyes on your 4th place finish...again without a full line-up and mostly freshman, you boys do a fine job!
