Just something random I noticed. I'll bet an ex Riverdale wrestler wins a state title coaching. Ellsworth, Riverdale and I think jade gribble at Burlington? Pretty impressive coaches from a small d3 school.gl to them all!

How about predictions and scores?  This is courtesy of NOPIN 2.0... a set of equations first introduced by Koy Kosek in the Wisconsin Wrestling Digest and since tweaked slightly for (hopefully) greater accuracy.  It will be fun if we get a lot of human predictions on here for comparison, because this is what my computer "thinks"

Merrill vs Mukwonago - Merrill   45 - 17   (computer is 97% confident in a Merrill win)
Bayport vs Stoughton - Bayport   33 - 29  (54% confident)

By the way, I think my computer is wrong about some of these (for instance, I think Spring Valley beats Riverdale) but the input variables include the strength of the sectional your team qualified in, and the equations were hugely impressed with D3 Sectional C.

I'm with Houndhead. Except for I would guess Bay Port. just a guess.

I'll be pulling for Coleman, but if SVE wins, that will be just fine. the program thoroughly deserves it.

I've sworn at computers before, but if your's is right I might kiss it!   

[DarkKnight]

I wonder how Riverdale and SVE matchup. Riverdale has been a bit under the radar.

[woody53]

On paper SVE has the advantage. Do not count Riverdale out. Great coaching staff and a great work ethic.

[CLC FAN]

Like I said, I don't agree with my computer that Riverdale will beat Spring Valley/Elmwood... but I wouldn't be surprised to see them win 6 matches against SVE.   Riverdale's 113, 195, and 220 all finished one match shy of qualifying for state.  At 113, the 3 kids ahead of him finished 1,3,5 at state.  At 195 nobody from Riverdale's sectional placed, but at 220, the champ and the runner-up were both from the same sectional as Riverdale.

[DarkKnight]

I see... good luck to all of them

[shouldvewrestled]

SV/E 113 Huebel is probably a state place winner but had skin infection at regionals I think and couldn't wrestle. That's what I heard anyway.

No but Ellsworth and Coleman are again for the Straight year.

Doesn't appear anything is happening to wrestling
