    He's from a catholic school out west. St. Paris Graham.

    As far as the topic, you've got to go with The Monroville Three, Ian Miller and Bo Jordan. Then there's a nice second teir with guys like George DiCamillo, DiJulius, Tavanello and Nick Brascetta. Huston Evans clearly belongs up there as well.

    No, I'm not kidding. I grew up 15 minutes from Graham, but live in NW Ohio now, and I don't follow wrestling. I follow it as an outsider b/c of the history of my alma matter and old church, where the Dernlan brothers went. Jeff and Jim Jordan (namely their parents) were members of my home church, so I know their family.

    Which leads me to my next question... is Bo Jordan one of Jeff or Jim's sons?
  • cruiser_96
    Yes he is one of their son's, but I'm not sure which.

    Bo and Micah are Jeff's and Isaac is Jim's.

    You wouldn't put Felipe Martinez in the top tier? I certainly would.

    I'm assuming that Ben Jordan was also Jim's? Are there more Jordan's yet to enter high school wrestling?

    Jeff has another son, "Rocky".....
  • TigerRaider1
    Being the youngest Jordan and having the name of Rocky.... Look out this kid maybe the best Jordan EVER!

    There's also Dean Hile from St Eds. Probable 4X State Champ.

    I would say possible four time champ, he has a tough class this year (him, Newhouse, and Dillon are all very close), and it will only get tougher in those lower weights as the next few years shake out. Very possible, but it's hard to say probable.


    Also, i feel like somepeople are overlooking Bobby Blankenship from Jonathan Alder, he may well give Evans a run for his money at the end of the year!

    oh yea, and a kid named Tyler Heminger from Northmor, kid is a three time state runner-up! would be a three time champ if not for Hunter Stieber and Tessari!

    I still think he had Tessari pinned in the final as a 9th grader.....

    J. Dillon
    K. Squire

  • The2cKDude
    all this and only one guy has mentioned Filipe Martinez? he may well be the best in the state when healthy regardless of weightclass.

    Soundly beat Tucker Armstrong last year in the finals, probly the best two kids who wrestled each other in the finals last year (close seconds too Squire-Salupo and Phillips-Utley)

    No Sam Wheeler? I think his first name is Sam. From Copley, I think.

    As good as Wheeler is (he's excellent), he's the third best 189-pouner in Ohio.
  • ontheline
    Both of my kids are great!
  • cruiser_96
    Agreed. For yours and mine!
  • rassler
    No mention of Stephen Myers?
