Here is the hard part! As far as Top Gun VS. Medina goes, I would imagine that certain weight classes are harder than others at either tournament. How do we decide what tournament is harder? We could look at a global list of criteria like , 1) What Teams are invited to each tournament and how they placed the prior year?Cthelites wrote: Middle School in season:

CIT

As far as HS, has Top Gun overtaken Medina?
Yes all these tournaments are in Ohio. The GMVWA is mostly Southwest Schools some from the Toledo area, and the top teams from Kentucky there are 48 teams in the tournament. Graham attends.Joe Daugherty wrote:Are all of these tourneys Ohio tournaments? ie. GMVWA?oldschoollion123 wrote: In Season High School in Ohio

I dont think gmvwa is all that compared to the others! Graham doesnt attend...They run away with the tournament every year! Nothing bad towards Graham..just dont think its as tough as the other Four listed in my opinion!

Graham already attends Top Gun, the GMVWA gives them a chance to see most of the teams from the Southwest District. Yes they are the dominate team in the area but it always helps to know your competition. So I don't see them leaving the G. I think they used to attend Brecksville and left a couple of years ago to get into the G.Varsityfan32 wrote: Graham should give up GMVWA and attend one of the 3 brecksville medina or top gun that would make for some really exciting tournaments
Would that 7th Grader be Mark H. Formerly from Michigan?oldschoollion123 wrote:Graham already attends Top Gun, the GMVWA gives them a chance to see most of the teams from the Southwest District.

The GMVWA has some good wrestling this year I watched a 7th grader from Ryle Kentucky beat alot of Ohio's best at 119 . He lost in the finals 14-4 to returning State Champ Nick Brescetta from Graham. He is a legit 12 years old has not been held back the kid is very tough.He has also beat a few kids that placed at Brecksville this year 1 that comes to mind is Ward from Goshen.
Yes the wrestler is Mark Hall is a beast! By the time this kid gets to H.S. if he sticks with it he should be a four time state champ.Joe Daugherty wrote:Would that 7th Grader be Mark H.

Beg to differ here! 6 X State champ ! That's why they moved to Kentucky ! For real! My son and Mark go to a ton of camps together at BTW in Milan Ohio and I have spoken to his father a few times. They are very focused on being the best. If you look this kid up on the world of wrestling site he has already won a ton of Major tourneys. Here is what is awesome about him and his dad. They really have a great attitude about wrestling! The kid is always laughing and having a great time. His dad really does not pressure him all that much ! I wouldn't doubt that Mark made the decision to move to Kentucky and his dad is just trying to give his kid the best opportunity to be the best. Expect him to move back to Michigan his freshman year. Great Kid and Even better Dad !oldschoollion123 wrote:Yes the wrestler is Mark Hall is a beast!

Your Right 6timer souds alot better! Especially since he should win it 2 times in Kentucky. Will he move back to Michigan for sure, or could he end up in Ohio Some Where?

I'm sorry , My son is 12 years old and 77 lbs. Mark and my son and a few others just attend the same camps and play together! There is no comparison to Mark and my son ! The kid is a freak of nature. Meant in a good way. I would love to see him come to Ohio! Personally I would like to see him wrestle for Burney ! But in all reality I would think he would go to Gram. Or maybe Blair????

Really though he is a very tough kid how did your son do against him.
