Freestyle and Greco State

As we head into Southeast Regions this coming weekend in Jacksonville, Florida … we have a clearer picture of those that might be contenders for a SE Region crown as well as a member of their state dual team or on the trip to Fargo.

Many states use their “State Championship” as a qualifier for duals and Fargo. Florida has previously used the Father Devine Tournament as a qualifier for the duals team, but that was two decades ago - I don’t know if that has changed in recent years. Regardless - we highlight those wrestlers that won a State Freestyle or Greco title this past weekend … you might see more them this summer.

For those of you unfamiliar (and so I don’t have to write it multiple times for multiple states) - here is a possible breakdown:

  • 14U are your likely representatives for a Schoolboy/Schoolgirl team if the state decides to compete in the Duals which will be held June 9th-13th in Franklin, Indiana.

  • 16U are your likely representatives for “Cadet" (although I don’t believe USA Wrestling is still using that designation) for the 16U Duals in Westfield, Indiana on June 9th-13rh.

  • Junior Champs are your likely representatives on the Junior Duals team (and possibly Junior National Team) that will be held June 15th-19th in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

What’s the saying … “Summer wrestling makes Winter Champions” - expect to see these names often over the next 12 months.
