just wondering. I think you've posted them in prior years, though perhaps I'm confusing that with your predictions on how SE guys will do at States.
Yes, in previous years I posted how the SE guys will do at states - although I didn't do this last year and won't this year. I'll probably start up again next year.just wondering.

Predictions for this weekends SE AAA. Top 5 go to states:
195: 3. Hunter Catka
I've got my eye on him. It's not that often that a freshman has as much success as he has had in an upper weight. I've seen him wrestle a few times, and he's quite good.
Cronin (138 -- UD) has looked great the few times I've seen him this year. Trampe (132 - CRS) I only saw 1 time, and he looked great. Marino (126 - GV) I've seen a few times, and he's looked very good.
Should be some great competition.
What's happened to good old Quakertown? My dads school & a school I played against & wrestled against. They always used to have 3/4 studs on there team back in the day? Of course that's the 80's & I'm showing my age ;(
Brandon Meredith is Bud's grandson, right?

Thanks for the info.That is correct. Brandon's grandfather is Bud.
Max Livingston is the younger brother of Caleb.
I've coached about half of these kids, including Brandon, Max and Katka, and can provide any information you want.
FYI. Chase Stephens and Ryan Resnick will be teammates in college at Tenn-Chattanooga, where my former Foxcatcher/Renegade teammate, David Hoffman, is the HC.
Thanks for the info.
Foxcatcher? There must be a few stories from those days?
that's powerful stuff for anyone to go through something like that, and esp. a 12-year oldHow about I was coached by Dave Schultz on the Tuesday before he was shot and killed. I was 12yrs old. I'm also one of the last wrestlers to train at the Foxcatcher facility on DuPont's estate. This was after it was shut down and only open to two people who testified for DuPont, one of them being my coach who trained me for PSU.
How's that for a story?
Scheduling is not an issue. South Central AAA Regionals is always during Districts weekend, because D3 is the only district in the regional. Must be nice to have that extra week to recover before states that your competitors don't have ...Is D3 AAA the only district not wrestling in regionals this weekend? Is this scheduling an issue?
Yeah, I realize that D3 is the only district in that region, though the AA setup is different. What I was wondering is whether there was much griping about the arrangement that seems to give the D3 AAA guys a bit of an advantage in preparation for States? Or enough griping to make any changes?Scheduling is not an issue. South Central AAA Regionals is always during Districts weekend, because D3 is the only district in the regional.
