Just wanted to know if anyone has any thoughts Jr. High teams in the area. What teams are the power house this year. I've herd Wapak, Lima Bath, Elida and Celina.

Also is there any outstanding wrestlers in the jr high level. I know Meeks from Bath is very good who else is out there.

[BuckWild]

There are a lot of good Jr Hi kids out there. Shawnee has Croft & Altenbach(Spelling??). Bath has a couple; Meeks, Matz, Sullivan. I haven't seen any other schools yet. Next weekend (1/5/08) is the Van Wert Duals. That has all of the WBL teams in it and will let everybody know how they stack up.

[tazmaster5]

Meeks is the beast of the area. I would be surprised if he doesn't become a 4 time WBL Champ in High School and a 3 time state qualifier.
With Xavier being the upmost top talent it is the 2nd spot that is up for grabs.
In deciding the 2nd best I think it could virtually be Miller from Jefferson. He just might be better then his brother.
Elida has Troyer, Hunlock, Cameron, Green, Dukehart, Dunlap, Pauff. As a Team they may be the deepest. Haven't seen Bath or Celina yet. Louie always does a great job with Bath Middle School. Sullivan is nothing like his dad..lol..so he must be good at all sports.
Shawnee has Croft. This weekend will show if any others are able to step up.
This Saturday will determine alot with the young WBL talent out in Van Wert.

I strongly agree with Curtis Miller from Delphos Jefferson he will be one to watch for the next four and a half years.
The Delphos Tri County Wrestling Club has really done a nice job sending experienced kids to the two Delphos schools and some of the surrounding schools.Here are a couple more names I think we should watch for in Jr. High and the next Four to Five years.

Dylan Krendl Delphos St. John's
Will Buettner Delphos St. John's
Dylan Klemen Columbus Grove
Kyle Neumeier Delphos St. John's
Curtis Miller Delphos Jefferson
Gavin Windau Columbus Grove
Quinton Wessel Delphos Jefferson

This Club has already produced some very good wrestlers , Justin Shannon Bluffton, Jake and Zack Clum Spencerville, Stuart Miller Delphos Jefferson Collin and Andrew Swick of Delphos Jefferson and Aaron and Brian Merschman, Brian Backus and Jeff Fritz of Delphos St. John's and if I forgot anyone I'm sorry.

Nice Job to the guys who started the club and the ones continuing to run it.

Sullivan is a good football player, nice baseball player and good wrestler. He got his athletic ability from his mother.

Elida wins the WBL out in Van Wert.
The kids mentioned here live up to the talk.
Bath - No One comes close to Meeks. Sullivan continues to look good. Didn't get to see Metz. If they didn't have 4 voids they would have been in the finals in my opinion.
Celina - As a Team looked real good. Not one stand out kid in my opinion. Good Dual Team.
Defiance- No Dominate kid. Upper weights looked pretty good.
Elida - They are a team. 3 starters out and the backups come in and shine. I won't talk of one kid...I will say they all looked good and showed they are the ones to watch for now and maybe in the future as well.
Shawnee - Croft and Altenbach(Spelling) looked good as well. Coach Croft has the kids improving everyday.
Van Wert - Scott always seems to do a good job with the kids he has. No one single dominate kid but some good young talent that I am sure he will have improving by year end.
Wapak - The program is back on an upswing. Law and the other Coaches are doing a great job. The match with Celina was awsome. Wapak takes it. Some nice young talent there and a good group of young men.

Would like to point out that ELIDA in the past 2 weeks has won this tournament and Toledo Central Catholics Dual y Beating the #1 ranked and unveaten for 4 years Oak Harbor and knocking off Columbus St. Francis Desales.
I hope they keep the role going.
See everyone at Elida Invite.

Just a small correction. Although Jake & Zac Clum have long been friends with and wrestled with many of the Tri County Alumni that are listed, they never wrestled for the Tri County Club. They did their youth wrestling with the Wapak Kids Club and the Greenville club (for 2 years). Dan Davies, Gale Miller, and others @ Wapak & Greenville helped lay the foundation of their wrestling. That being said, the Tri County Club has done a great job of developing many wrestlers in this area.

[Nearfall]

Thank you for the correction. I need to research more before I post.

The Spencerville Inv. is stacking up to be a real good tournament, good luck to all the participating schools. Looks like it will be ran by Baums Page that is the way to do it.

Lima Bath and Cincinnati Loveland look like the teams to beat, Go Wildcats

[BuckWild]

Spencerville ran a great tournament, as usual. It was good seeing the new teams like Cincinnati Loveland, Carey, Covington, etc. Bath took 2nd place with only 10 wrestlers placing all 10 in the top 4 with 4 champions. Here is a link to the results.

Sullivan is a good football player, nice baseball player and good wrestler. He got his athletic ability from his mother.

your absolutlely right, but he got his tenacity from his father, and his good looks. Now lets put the shoe on the other foot, i have seen you play softball so i know where your son got his athletic ability and it is surely is not his father. hahahahaha
