No Doubt all wrestlers listed look pretty tough. As a note, Mills has a record of 11-1 with his only loss to date being Luft from Teays Valley.

PopKat, really excited to see Mills make a run at the schott this year. Best of luck to him, i'll keep an eye out.

Mills is legit, and he has the FIRE. There is nothing I enjoy more than watching a kid embrace the fire of higher level wrestling and want to succeed. Michael Patrick Has it, Alec Mills has it, Travis Gusan has it, and many more of our guys have that fire. I watched kids like Filandus Boyd, Paul Caldwell and Quinton Ryman from my past squads realize potential. I also watch Jason Russell, Thomas Joyce, and Tony Lawler realize their potential as seniors from west. Kids in our league have the potential, it is when that potential is realized that they believe they can go with anyone. This is why I coach where I do.

Good dual that was close all the way through. It could have gone either way.

any other scores throughout the city this weekend?

some notes from the Worthington Kilbourn tournament Centennial got 4th with losses to Pick cent. and Del Hayel but fft 4 in the dual vs Hayes. Brookhaven and Whetstone Dualed again for the 3rd time. Brookhaven leases the series 2-1 and finshed 9th whetstone finshed 10th. Brookhaven won by 6. There may have been a little chess match between the coaches in the dual.

Anthony Lehnen went 5-0 on the day and has a record of 13-2 with one loss revenged.
Mac conklin went 3-2 and has a record of 12-3

have lehnen and conklin made the move to 6 and 13 yet?

Richburg (South) vs. Baker (Mifflin) @ 195 - last year Richburg pinned Baker in a dual, and then lost by decision in the semi's at city. This will be a great match when and if they meet up again.

145 is stacked in the city this year.

Marion Franklin, West, Centennial seem to be on top. Brookhaven, Mifflin, Whestone, Walnut Ridge right behind. Travis Gusan should place high at state this year.

Anybody have results for last nights Mifflin, Whetstone, Marion Franklin Tri?

things are starting to get very interesting around here. West duels Briggs January the 18th, and I know Bhaven is at licking heights soon. where is everyone else at?

We (South) go to East this Wednesday with them and Africentric, this weekend at Licking Heights and next weekend at New Albany. Then a home dual vs. Bexley on 2/2 and Thomas Worthington Invitational before the City. We have 2 Pts. if anyone is interested in matching up for a dual or tri sometime. email me at [email protected]

Where was marion franklin, mifflin, and northland this weekend and how did they do

Mifflin was at New Albany last weekend. They had a small squad and finished near the bottom of the 11 team field. Mills took second at 138.

PopKat, glad to see mills made it down, I think he will do big things in the central district!

Brookehavens 120 pounder!!! kid has some of the best hips ive ever seen! if he learns how to use him he will move up from JV all star to a District Qualifier... i also like there 106 kid has a nasty gator roll

Thanks Westie! Mills not yet at 100% but we will see how things go this weekend.

Lets get some of these City League kids over to Darby's open mats on Monday nights.
Westie brought a couple over a couple of weeks ago, but I havent seen anyone since.
Ill give a city league 2 for 1 deal to get you out.
2 kids for $5 of intense grinders!

Any predictions for the city tournament
