I know it’s a bit early, but who are going to be some interesting kids to look out for?

All the interesting ones graduated last year.

I wouldn't be so sure of that! I think you're going to see a bunch of kids who have worked their butts off this summer.

Agree with Whizzer

South has 14 or 15 kids to “watch” this year.

Obviously, there are a lot to watch. However, Wheeling Park is going to have several kids in the middle weights that will be both young and very competitive for a spot on top of the podium.

Wheeling Park always comes up with great talent. They're doing a great job.

JM has 2 returning finalists and 3 other returning placers plus some new blood at the lower weights that could do some damage. Could get interesting.

I'd say watch the Patriots this year; South and Indy.

Those 2 teams are a lock..!

Both PP and GW will be tough this year. Overall, I think AA/A will be even more competitive this year.

Just gazing over the returning points from last year, Fairmont East looks to have the most returning points, followed closely by Indy. Point will have a couple of Freshmen coming in that will contend for individual titles and some returning placers.

The AA/A team title should be fun to watch.

I'd say watch for Vanmeter of Moorefield, Conley and Williams of Braxton, and Patterson and Brown of West.

You have obviously been paying attention to all of the dogs and not just within your own kennel. I will take this to a new discussion topic.

Dawson and Lusher, Indy’s most underrated One-Two punch returns and can wrestle with anyone in the state.
Also throw in Saunders, Perdue, Kump, and many talented JV wrestlers with the chance to start this year.

Most South kids will of course be very exciting to watch this year.

Easy Fairmont has Boyers, Cassucio? , Blake Whorton back.

Point has Freshman Derek Raike looking to make a splash.

Oak Glen has Peyton Hall.

Going to be a very exciting year, in AA/A atleast.

Independence should barely be top 3 the best kid on there team is lusher by far and he got pinned by Roberts in n the first point and east are the top dogs and will dominate this year

Didn’t one of those kids from Indy transfer to christiansburg this year?

This year.... Either Dawson or Lusher transferred.

Christmasburg ???

I don't get it

Fairmont Senior is going to start their three year run as a team this season, though East should edge them out this season. FSHS has some great returning kids like Frazier, Harrison, Heston, Tarley and Leonard. They are expecting great things from sophomore Scott this year... put on a lot of muscle weight after an up and down freshman year battling minor injuries and I think he missed regionals due to ringworm outbreak after Big 10's. He's up to around 175 pounds from 152 last season for football. Frazier should be the favorite for HWT champ again this year if he can stay below 285. Throw in some incoming freshman who will battle for a couple spots and FSHS looks good for the next few years.

Casto of Clay will be someone to look out for as well. He has been hitting the weight room and he looks like he could be ready to contend for a top 6 (or higher) finish this season

All eyes on a returning freshman state champion. From what I hear welcome back Caleb Haynes.

Brayden Roberts is a returning state champion and won Fargo over the summer. He’s also registered for Super 32. Great young man who’s been putting in the time to improve even more.
