Wick boys 2017-18

[leg turk]

Can we expect both of these guys to be Badger starters next season, and if so, at what weights?

157 and 165 taking over for Ruschell and Jordan. Rest of the lineup stays the same besides replacement at HWT.

One of them is a little better than the other, correct?  Is that the heavier one?  Looking forward to watching these guys.

Too bad that there is even a thread about next year.... That said I am excited about the Wick boys, they look really tough at this level, Even was really fun at Midlands.

Ream is the #6 seed at Nationals and Evan teched him. Pretty impressive.

Sorry, just trying to make small talk before the action starts up next Thursday.

Those are pretty impressive stats!  Thanks.

No, it's all good I agree we need some things to talk about this week, and they are fun to look forward to.  That Heffernan win was big.  He is also a very tough kid.

I am excited to see what they are able to do and also what Ben Stone does at hwy (maybe that is an assumption). I think he is developing more than I first thought. The Wick could have solid careers from what we see this year.

Yea will be interesting to see if it is Stone or bring in the true freshman.

I thought about that too but it think he needs a year to develop and catch up physically and adjust to college. I think Hillger has a big upside and solid career ahead of him at the W!

Ben Stone is a hammer. I am pretty sure there was a whole thread on here about how great the duke heavy is. Could someone remind me how Stone did against him? Hilger is a good recruit, no doubt, but Stone has spent 2 years in the room earning that varsity spot. I would bet on Stone next year. To be the man you gotta beat the man. After next week, Ben Stone is the man.

Wick should have no problem finishing fourth in the Big Ten at the Big Ten Tournament just
as Jordan did as a senior.  As we already know, the top three finishers at 165 will all be back(Illinois, Michigan and Penn State)

[boowrestle]

Billy,jmo all 3 will not be back at 165,especially with IMAR  there
