Raney was injured last year, too - he didn't wrestle a match until the last week of January and wrestled only 12 matches. That would have been the reason for his padded knee.

Agree. I need to see a junior year like his freshman year. He's off to a good start on it.

Looks like Norwin's schedule is still in work. Last year they went to Beast, Powerade, and Doc B. A schedule like that will show how good he is.

He won't be tested at all in the PIAA postseason unless he bumps up to 127 AND Dillard or Ballard don't move up. Even then, the Sidun who wrestled last night has too much offense for them.

@GregPickel Do you know if he's going to Super 32?

Yes. He's entered at 120. That weight is by far the toughest at the Super 32 - it's absolutely stacked. It includes 21 of my top 25 at that weight and 39 of my top 55. Sidun, Zinkin, Munaretto, Kenny, Sontz, Uhorchuk, Rothermel, Jakob, Rozas and Dodd are all entered. That's all 10 of my top 10 at the weight. It's going to be nuts.

Any word on what happened with Raney’s leg? I watched the replay several times trying to figure out what exactly went wrong, but I didn’t see anything super abnormal (i.e. knee or ankle going the wrong way). It looked to be his non-padded knee. Some people in the comments on twitter were speculating it was his Achilles?
Click to expand...
Achilles is what I thought as well. A super common injury these days. I really hope not because that’s a major injury and would be his second major injury in not a lot of time

Just saved me a lot of work!

Other returning PA state placers at S32 120:
Nicholas McGarrity, Peters Twp S1/S3
Sam Wolford, N. Lebanon S2
Carter Chunko, Saucon Valley S2
Kavin Muyleart, Cedar Cliff S2
Thunder Beard, C. Dauphin S4
Dakota Santamaria, Tussey Mtn S5
Tommy Gretz, Connellsville S6

DE state champ Gabe Campanelli is from Chadds Ford PA.

From NJ: Sontz, Kenny, S1 JoJo Burke, and 2x S2 Johnathon McGinty are also in the field. McGinty is a returning Super 32 finalist and might not place this year, given how stacked this field is.

Plus, this being Super 32, there will likely be approximately 87 rounds in the championship side of the bracket, in 2 days.

Whoever wins this weight will have earned it.

Sounds like the worst case scenario was avoided for Raney which is obviously great. Always hate seeing kids not being able to compete in a big match because of an injury

Hopefully he takes his time and doesn't rush back for his 6th state title . It's something they want he rushed back from his ACL last year for #5. He was back in competition after 6 months and still walks with a limp

The rest of my top 25 that's in at 120: Luttrell (13), Enzminger (14), Sibomana (15), McGinty (16), Vandermark (18), Tovar (19), Merli (20), Bell (21), Rios (23) and Wolford (25). A lot of really good kids are not placing.

The PA class is typical - deep, but not great at the top. Sidun and the Bishop McCort kids are the real leg-breakers. The Bishop McCort kid we signed is their fourth-best kid, and he's a distant fourth.

Herring is a tremendous addition to the room. He’s very well liked already, a wrestling junkie and a very hard worker. He could definitely end up like a Barraclough and Conaway and slowly become an AA level upperclassman but I don’t have him in the lineup very early, if ever.

In fairness, none of Sidun, the Bachmanns, Harer, Dillard, Waters, Singer, and Bechtold would make the top 3 on that McCort team.

Agreed with the bigger point. The truly elite talent, those that win individual and team titles, is dispersed. Recruit accordingly. We're all happy we got Nick Lee instead of Brian Courtney at 141 in the same class, right?

Correct. There are four current PA kids who I would put on the top half of the podium at the NCAAs. A lot of maybe fifth by your junior year types.

Not good. Raney looks to be really hurt. He’s in a lot pain. Hopefully he’s ok but I doubt this match continues. He does default and gets carried off the mat. Looks to be serious. Awful for a really great kid

Just watched it. Didn’t look like much of anything. Ankle bows inward but from sitting on it as Shane said. No roll like the classic ankle sprain
