If you are wondering why I know this, it is because I have been ask to run the tournament for these guys. It looks like we will be seeing some good finals.

mccoy over oaks 6-4

I dont see Powers Losing, just my opinion

dont count sanders out from walhalla. scrappy kid who knows what he's doing just been at the wrong weight. definately top 3. mccoy over oaks.

Just don't see McCoy beating Oaks even though he is much improved from last year. Oaks has made great strides as well.

mccoy didnt even place at the wolverine at 125 so no way he goes UP to 130 and hangs with oaks. Oaks big probably a major

I wouldnt go that far xxx, but I think oaks wins it as well

i respect mccoy very much. he is a great wrestler. what ive learned is that it does not matter your record or your past losses. whoever steps on the match more focused and determined for 6 mins will win the match

11-3 oaks

10-4 oaks

Oaks by four over McCoy.
Taylor by one over Pierce. (If he makes it by Powers in the Semi's)
McCall over Rankin by two.

mccall is great no doubt, but i dont see rankin losing to him again. oaks and mccoy is one of those were gonna have to sit back and see what happens. like adam said, its just who steps on the mat.

I would put money on McCall or Rankin taking any of the Skyline weights from 119-135. The only possible exception would be Oaks at 130. Oaks versus McCall or Rankin would be fun. I think McCall has taken Oaks in past matchups hasn't he? To bad one (rankin or mccall) will not be a region champ. But nice for the fans. Gotta give both props for not backing down. This rivalry reminds me of McCall-Rholetter so many times last year.

rankin showed out in amazing fashion today. also props to humphries from pendleton to rising to the challenge. and as for mccoy/oaks mccoy had a slip up early on and lost by 1 to the crescent kid. still would have been fun to watch

From memory

103 Sanford (Wal) dec Lewis (Abb)
112 Whitfield (Cre) dec Simmons (Abb)
119 Rankin (Wal) dec McCall (Cre)
125 Humphries (Pen) dec Bianco (Cre)
130 Oaks (Abb) TF (?) Sherbert (Cre)
135 Tillman (Abb) over Smith (Cre)
140 Cowan (Abb) MD Johnson (Em)
145 Tillman (Abb) over Lewis (Cre)? I think?
152 Steifle (Em) Dec Harper (Wal)
160 Newton (Em) TF Nathan (Wal)
171 Taylor (Lib) Dec Pierce (Cre)
189 Thinking it was Glace (Abb) over Mitchell (Lib) by pin
215 Stewart (Pen) pin Sanders (Abb)
Hwt Hedden (Wal) pin Robinson (Pen) - great match tied in closing seconds of third.

Abbeville wins team points
I think Walhalla was second?
Zane Newton voted Skyline WOY
Cody McCall (Cre), Eli Pierce (Cre), and Skylar Johnson (Em) voted as at-large All-region by coaches.
Great job by all.

It just came back to me. Tillman did beat Lewis in OT.

Big ups to Coach Martin: Skyline Coach of the Year...Well deserved and hard earned.....

Couple of matches of note that I remember from memory that were interesting.....

103: Only three guys due to scratches. Region II has the definite advantage here with Champion and Gilliam. WEAK weight class in skyline.

112: Where was Gegenheimer? He didn't even wrestle from what I saw. Whitfield seemed relaxed and ready to wrestle.

119: Rankin and McCall was a great match as always. Felt the ref screwed McCall out of a reversal once but would not of changed the outcome in my own opinion. Rankin was ready for him.

125: Humphries has improved tremendously from last year. Bianco took him to the wire though, will have to keep working.

130: Oaks coasted.

135: Tillman doesn't seem to put people away earlier but man he doesn't surrender many points.

140: Cowan did not even appear to breathe hard or strain at any point.

145: Close match here. Big Tillman looks like he lacks the technical wrestling of the smaller one but is just as athletic. Great match.

152: Steifle's style matches up well against Harper.

160: Zane is on a mission.

171: That Crescent 71 is a Hoss....Every wrestler was an athlete at this weight.

189. Glace is good, but the Liberty 89 didn't seem to be too shabby.

215: Pendleton kid surrenders alot of points but gets it done

HVY: Pendleton heavy gave Hedden all he wanted. 11-11 in the third period when Pendleton kid got taken to his back. Great match between Heavyweights that doesn't happen very often. Loved it.

152: I felt like Patterson should of beaten Harper. Had the take down with Harper on his back and harper scissors the head to stop the match and give him one instead of two so the score was tied and sent to OT, but match could go either way every time.

160: Rosa winning big against Nathan from Wal at 60. I think 12-3 or 4 or something and then gets thrown in a headlock.

130: Sherbert from Crescent is down by four against Walhalla in the third and hits a nice cradle to come back for a one point victory, great match I think it was 15-14?

171: Taylor from Lib looked as if he is peaking at the right time...will see for sure soon.

189: Glace wrestles well against, in many cases, much larger opponents. Would like to see how he does at state if he makes it.

I believe Tillman got teched at the woodruff tournament 17-1. 135 class from the skyline region may be little weak.

Lowerstate is strong at 135 with Burr and James have not seen Flynn .

by far best match of the tourney. only match to go in ot looks like a match for upperstate finals as well if both keep improving, thought lewis had it for a sec, but tillman pulled it out in the end. great match. surprised lewis didnt get all region honors though

I was told Gegenheimer missed weight. He should be a factor at upperstate.

a few questions:
are you sure lewis didnt decision sanford?
are you sure whitfield didn't pin simmons?

Yep - Sanford won something like 10-5 or 12-5.
Whitfield won something like 6-2 or 6-4 maybe?
I may be wrong on that last score.

What was the score in the McCall/Rankin match?

Thinking it was something like 8-4.

CU - McCall was not screwed out of a reversal. Glad you are not a ref The correct call was made on the mat. That was not a reversal when Rankin got high and McCall caught his head. Rankin rolled through it and came back on top immediately. Even if you called it a reversal Rankin immediately reversed back and rode him out. No change in score. Noone got screwed out of anything.

I was dissapointed to see i didnt get to match up wit mccoy in the finals. I was ready, and looking forward to it. Maybe, Ill get my chance at upperstate and state if I make it.

Skyline- That is not the moment I was speaking of. I was watching from the other side of the gym but I felt like McCall should of gotten one of the reversals when him and Rankin were grappling right on the edge. There was one where Rankin was on his butt and it looked as if McCall had two supporting points inside the line. It was a close call either way and I do not feel as if it would of changed the outcome. Rankin wrestled great.

yeah man wish i could of been in the finals with you just messed up for 2 seconds and costed me in bigger weight dont worry we'll see ya soon man
