Sectionals this weekend, and some big news already. First, returning 182 AA finalist Dom Fundy (Beth Center) is out with a hand injury. And now this:

Probably himself.who is expected to be his main competition at states?
wonder if dapperDan will try to match him aginst rby again
or Teske for that matter
I’ve heard rumors that both Mathews and Mulligan have gotten invites if they win states.Probably himself.
The only AA lightweight who might hold him to a decision is Southern Columbia's Jaret Lane (last year's 113 champ), who's at 120.
Next best guy is Benton's Cole Rhone (120 2nd), who bumped up to 132. Smart move -- Teaz teched Rhone 17-2 at Powerade.
Stick a gun to my head and I'll guess Teaz's finals victim will be Upper Dauphin's Bronson Garber (120 4th), who's undefeated this year ... and not nearly in the same class.
Dapper Dan USA team was announced.some time ago Teasdale will get yet another match with Pat Glory -- and they've had a bunch of battles in the past. RBY will go 138, opponent not yet announced but most likely Pitt commit Cole Matthews (Reynolds). Iowa will face WPIAL in the preliminary, so Teske might get a match there -- absolutely no idea who the opponent would be, I don't think there are any SR returning placers from the Pgh area at 120.
They did pick 2 guys at 120 for Team USA, Melendez and McKee.It would be nice if they had two-120 pound bouts, with the second being between Lane and Teske.

Brandon Meredith will win this going away, and might bonus every match.
Friday's storm knocked out my power, am still living with the in laws.
As an aside: I might not be able to do any preview this year. Friday's storm knocked out my power, am still living with the in laws.
Yes. I'm sure many do, but it's inappropriate for message board commenting. Suffice to say he didn't hit the mat this year and his future is in question at this point.Anyone know what's up with Julian Chlevbove?
I'm quite fortunate there. They're pretty laid back, they like me, and they like my family.Dam, I wouldn’t wish that on anyone, The in-laws part that is

Also helps that the sister in law (wife's brother's wife) is a real PITA. All I have to do is keep my mouth shut and I'm the favorite.
Plus I'm Italian by marriage, so no hard cuts the past few days.
I'm really sorry to learn that. He is a tremendously talented wrestler who displayed the kind of mat instincts that you just can't teach.Yes. I'm sure many do, but it's inappropriate for message board commenting. Suffice to say he didn't hit the mat this year and his future is in question at this point.
No, but thankfully her father lives a mile from them. So we kinda got the best of it -- nice BIL and one niece stayed with us, psycho SIL and the instigator niece stayed there.Hopefully for your sake the sister in law has power
No, but thankfully her father lives a mile from them. So we kinda got the best of it -- nice BIL and one niece stayed with us, psycho SIL and the instigator niece stayed there.
Quick story about the SIL: she owns her own business -- florist for events. She has an event tomorrow, so losing refrigeration was an issue for her. Which made it an issue for the rest of us. She completely freaked out because Peco estimated her power being restored on Thursday -- BIL did not have her on speaker but we heard every word she said. A few hundred thousand people don't have power or heat, live electrical lines are down everywhere, trees fell on houses and cars, but she has a problem.
Later she came over for dinner, and she snapped at BIL in front of everybody (including their daughters) because he mentioned being tired. Before he could recover, she pounced, yelled at him for various other micro crimes against humanity. Again, in front of their daughters.
Like I said, all I have to do is keep my mouth shut ...

What do you make of Garcia's chances, had he gone 170?I won't get around to a preview this year, but PennLive did a pretty good AA preview here:
http://www.pennlive.com/sports/index.ssf/2018/03/piaa_class_2a_wrestling_champi_1.html
... that I largely agree with, with some exceptions:
113 - Boozel 3rd
120 - Witmer 3rd
138 - Milbrand 3rd
145 - Hetrick 3rd
160 - Edsell 1st, McGill 3rd
170 - Patrick 2nd, Group 3rd
182 - Garcia 2nd, Gorring 3rd
195 - I didn't pick 2-4 -- rather, over/under Hoffman's longest match 2:00.
285 - I have no idea how to pick among the top 3. Jones should be the favorite, but he's wrestling low-scoring matches when he's capable of more. But McCoy beat him at regionals. And Scheib is scoring a lot. Any of the 3 could win. McCoy will make the finals. Jones or Scheib will take 3rd.
I also didn't go down to 4th, because that means reviewing consolations brackets, which I'm not doing.
he got smoked by edmund earlier in the year.....What do you make of Garcia's chances, had he gone 170?

PS- the next garcia (i think its his 7th state title) and 1 other just won PJW JH states, couple others placed too
Can't imagine very much with Beard at 197, and Urbas probably will start somewhere D1.What’s PSU’s level of interest in Cole Urbas? Thx
