Sussex Central vs Smyrna

Should be a good one. Glad to see his knee wasn't as bad as some thought.
I like smyrna at all 3 weights but they will be competitive matches. 106 natarcola will finally be challenged in state, Ankrom had a big win over wisniewski where he should have gotten a pin. The best match will be Natarcola/Stratton. It could be a toss up but I'll go Natarcola the way he bullied Caruso last match. I know he bumped up a weight but it was still impressive. Then Wuest will do what Wuest does. Cruz may be ranked 4th in state but nobody has been able to challenge Tony in state.

I hope so but I don't see it happening. Are the other wrestlers at 195 that much better than last years?
There is no way Natarcola beats Stratton. I think Ankrom and Natarcola is going to be a more competitive match, and closer than people think.
Well Wuest has nowhere to go to improve, the rest of the wieght class has nowhere to go but get better.
It's a weak weight class just like last year was. Weakest weight class of all of them. I dont remember hearing about any of the wrestlers in that weight class ever before. It's a shame there isn't anyone able to give Wuest a decent match in state.
Honestly don’t see central getting over 18 points in the dual either if we’re tlking stats Smyrna has the hardest room in the state these are boys who are together every not afraid to go the extra steps to lose tht extra pound no competition for them throughout the state of Delaware
I agree with it not being a very competitive dual i have central winning 4 matches, and only 2 being bonus point victories.. Sals vs Smyrna should be much more entertaining
I think joe natarcola wins vs ankrom but it will be the most competitive match he's had in state this season. At 132 I think it's a low scoring match maybe like 3-2 natarcola
How do you define 195 as the “weakest weight in the state”? I get that Wuest hasn’t been challenged in state, but aside from his only losses to one guy, Beard, he hasn’t had much of any challenges out of state either. If he weren’t in the weight class it would be a very competive one. I’ve been following him since he was a freshman. The #2 ranked kid Wuest pinned twice this year both times first period. My point is if a wrestler is so far ahead of the rest in his weight class, it doesn’t necessarily mean the weight class is weak. Look at the weight classes over the years when they had a superstar in it. Fleetwood, Meade, Thomas, walker, etc. we’re those weight classes considered weak? Just my thoughts
agree with u on tht were just saying do u think the kids he’s wrestling are d1 d2 even d3 wrestlers don’t get it twisted he’s solid can’t wait too see him on tht next level but we’re not gonna brag about a kid who’s hasn’t left the first Period with a kid in state in the state In the past two years I believe he pinned his finals kid last year in second but Delaware isn’t a solid state in wrestling we got solid kids who can beat outta state kids but these kids outta state are on another level of competition thts all we’re saying pretty much like we can’t even get are best kids to place at Fargo I mean even make it out of second third round at beast
Weak and competitive really have different meanings. If two kids are at an equal level it should be competitive but they could still be weak wrestlers. Last year a Wilmington Christian kid made it to the finals. Not to knock his accomplishment but the skill level is not where it's at for 195 as it is in other weight classes
Agreed 100 %. No knock to the kid at all but the past few years, aside from Clavier- there hasn’t really been any “highly talented” wrestlers in his weight class. And it’s not just his, I think the past several years, most of those wt classes from 182, 195, 220 and hvy haven’t been stacked with talent like some of the others (with a few exceptions of course).
What's up with the Wuest hate? He is the best in DE right now and he is GOOD FOR FOR DE WRESTLING!
btw...you guys are talking off topic while Smyrna is getting their ass beat. Someone could gave been giving match by match updates.
Wow. How did that happen? Anyone have a rough box score? Wonder how this effects seeding for duals

You heard it here first!! I'm just saying, I've seen those boys wrestle a couple times this year. I hate to say I told you so, but!
Looks like it. If there is a second go round with these teams and Moyer in the lineup, I think different outcome.
Hard to say. The four or five Smyrna guys whose names you don't easily recognize wrestled better than I expected given the SC opponents. Those score could be bigger next time.
Great match and great atmosphere. Not a bunch of bonus points like what was expected. The match of the night wasn't much of a match. Stratton controlled the match from the beginning and wasn't as close as the score. Hey maybe the score will be different next time, maybe not. Either way........great win for SC tonight. Well deserved.
