Really think we missed out on Garvin. He’s as college ready as anyone in this tournament.

OK. No dog in the 3A fight. After Semis it looked like quite a gap.

Yeah it was early. Too early to be talking about locking things up. It’s now after the actual semis and SEP isn’t even in 2nd, let alone 1st.
 
I think Riggins is the best college prospect in the tournament. I love watching Garvin but just wonder how he translates with the big boys.

And I really like the Freeman kid from waukee
Haha…. Great minds. My brother and I were texting about Freeman. Tough little SOB.

And can’t disagree on Riggins, but Garvin is just so dynamic. Riggins has room to grow and add good weight yet, where I think Garvin is more physically mature right now. Be fun to follow his career. I’ll be a big fan.

i think he's fun to watch, but i always take a wait and see approach to the unorthodox throwers. it's a hard living to make consistently at the college level. i remember a lot on here thought the west twins were the best prospects in the state when they throwing kids all over the place. i think garvin is better than that, but i'm far more confident that riggins pans out personally.

All I know is that the level of wrestling with the top kids in the state has grown by leaps and bounds the past few years.

Sebolt and Big Game are paying dividends.

Now if you can just get some more kids out instead of having 1A sectionals with 3 kids in a weight class.
 
does freeman have a national resume? you guys know the iowa kids better than me. i like what i see, but don't know the competition level. manhandling kids.

Don’t know much about him…. Looked at last years bracket and he beat Ayala 6-4 in the semis and majored Giomo in the finals. On his way to pin through 120 to finals to face Anderson from Ankeny who’s going for his 3rd title. Freeman won earlier this year 3-1 in OT.
