New poll: Which weight class will see an upset?

Jake Thomases
February

In general wrestling is all about the No. 1 seed. If you’ve spent all this time establishing yourself as the guy to beat, you usually win. But there are always a few exceptions.

For the latest poll, I want to know which weight class you think will see the No. 1 seed go down. This may be because you think a class is the deepest, or because the No. 2 is just as good, or the No. 1 is hurt. Whatever your reason.

I listed a few of the weight classes where there hasn’t been one dominant guy but feel free to add your own. To see the names in each weight class consult my earlier blog post with the seedings.

Davidson on the doorstep

Jake Thomases
February
8

Keep an eye on Carmel’s Kevin Davidson this Sunday. The senior is three wins away from breaking the school’s wins record of 148.

tjndc5-5sye4886psp3gchtbwq_layout

That record is held by Pat McCabe, a 2006 graduate. McCabe is currently part of the great gray army that is John Jay’s coaching staff. (If you’ve never seen them, that staff has about eight guys at every tournament, all of whom wear the same gray button down.)

Davidson sits at 146. Assuming he keeps winning, he’ll tie it after the quarterfinals and break it after the semis. And why wouldn’t he keep winning? The defending sectional champ is 30-0 this season and dismantled three opponents in divisionals. A knee injury knocked him out of Eastern States, where he could have earned some notoriety, but he appears to be healthy now.

How many is your team sending?

Jake Thomases
February
6

Anyone who made the finals or consolation finals today is headed to the sectional tournament next Saturday at Clarkstown South. Here is the master list of sectional qualifiers for every large school in Section 1:

John Jay 14
Fox Lane 13
North Rockland 13
New Rochelle 12
Suffern 11
Arlington 11
Mahopac 10
Somers 10
Carmel 10
Brewster 9
Sleepy Hollow 9
Clarkstown South 9
Scarsdale 9
Yorktown 8
Clarkstown North 8
Ketcham 8
Tappan Zee 7
Beacon 7
John Jay-East Fishkill 7
Port Chester 6
Mamaroneck 6
Ossining 6
Greeley 5
Hen Hud 4
Mount Vernon 4
Harrison 4
Nyack 4
White Plains 4
Rye 3
East Ramapo 3
Pearl River 3
Yonkers 2
Eastchester 2
Byram Hills 1
Lakeland/Panas 1

I took a look at last year’s list and did some comparing.

Biggest riser: New Rochelle. The Huguenots were middle of the pack last year with seven entries. This year’s total of 12 was even more impressive because it came in the same division as John Jay. And Mike Figueroa could well win a sectional title.

Biggest faller: John Jay dropped from 15 to 14. What a bunch of losers.

Biggest faller for real: Ossining had 10 last year behind Brundage and Neivert but only six this year.

Hard to believe Fox Lane could be better than last year when it won the section and placed third in the state. The Foxes are sending two more guys this year than last, though.

Also props to Greeley which sent only one kid last year and is up to five now.

Division 4 results from Carmel

Jake Thomases
February
6

Brian Realbuto was MOW. He handled Nick Oliveto a bit easier than in the past. Those two may be seeded 1 and 2 come sectionals.

John Jay-East Fishkill’s Dale White won his 100th match today en route to winning the 130 pound championship. White is a freshman, folks. Sounds like another 200-win guy on the horizon.

Division 2 results from Yorktown

Jake Thomases
February
6

MOW was Justis Flamio. He faced Steve Rodrigues AGAIN and beat him 8-4. I believe Flamio has won all three meetings by four points.

Shout out to Yorktown coach John Tornambe (for providing the results) and his team, which is sending eight to sectionals.

Snow delay on Saturday

Jake Thomases
February
5

If you’ve checked the weather report you know that Westchester is supposed to get a couple inches of snow tomorrow. There’s a possibility that some schools will deem it unsafe to travel and cancel their bus rides to divisionals. This would be disastrous. If one school cancels, the whole division would be postponed until Sunday.(Other divisions can still wrestle if all their member schools arrive).

Sunday, need I remind you, has this big football game on TV. Kickoff is 6:30, which would definitely overlap with the end of divisional finals. There would be panic in the gyms as people realized they were missing the game. Refs would be calling pins in the first 30 seconds just to speed things along. And the stands would be empty. Heck, the coaches’ chairs might be empty: “Sorry kid, I’d love to give you advice but I got 300 bucks riding on the Saints.”

To avoid all these headaches, wrestling chairman Eric Romanino has pushed back all start times one hour. Weigh-ins will now be from 8:30 to 9:30. If one school is having trouble it can call their host and ask for a further delay to give them time. The scales stay open until everyone gets there. Wrestling begins from there.

This will likely lead to one or two divisions running late if they get started late. I think we can all live with that if it means getting everything wrapped up tomorrow. That’ll give everyone a relaxing Sunday and athletes an extra day of rest before sectionals.

And as one wrestler told me, no one wants to cut weight an extra day.

P.S. Romanino is faxing the divisional seeds to my office. I will post as soon as I can. Sorry for the delay.

I’m in a bit of a daze today. I was at the office until 11 a.m. this morning (that’s through last night and into the morning) writing a loooong boxing story that was supposed to appear in Sunday’s paper. Now it’s not going in until next Sunday. Ugh. Anyway, the point is I got a couple hours sleep and my body clock is all messed up and I’m incoherent and babbling. But you already knew that last part.

So I’ll let you chew on a couple of stories.

The first is today’s Back Points notebook, in which I break down the four divisions. I list the top team, top challenger, and best individual matchup in each division.

Then there’s a that appeared only in the Yorktown Express, a weekly community paper in northwestern Westchester. It’s a feature on Putnam Valley’s three sectional favorites, plus one guy, Evan Kneuer, you may not have heard of.
