Best in weight

After careful consideration, I have chosen the top wrestlers of the season, any classification, according to weight. Here are my choices. Weigh in (ha) with yours.

103–Alex Dunaway, McGuffey, 32-9 – "He gets the nod over Andrew Lucarini of Fort Cherry and Dario Dobbin of C-M."

112–Derrick Nelson, Waynesburg, 32-7 – "The sophomore is part of a bright future for Waynesburg."

119–Vic LiPari, Chartiers-Houston, 30-8 – "The best of a weak weight class."

125–Colton Blumer, West Greene, 28-7 – "No Triple-A wrestler made it to the WPIAL quartefinals in this weight."

130–Nick Catalano, Canon-McMillan, 39-8 – "Up-and-comer finished fourth in state."

135–Mitch Spencer, Avella, 39-5 – "Only losses in PIAA tourney came against defending state champ."

140–Sam Lombardo, Canon-McMillan, 32-9 – "Two losses to Buddy Blotzer of S. Allegheny cost him trip to states."

145–Nick Carr, South Fayette, 38-8 – "Fifth at states, let everyone know South Fayette's program is back."

152–Kyle Appleby, Avella, 35-7 – "One of three Avella state qualifiers."

160–Tommy Thorpe, Charleroi, 27-13 – "Made it to states when opponent decided to take bite out of finger."

171–Cody Catalina, Beth-Center, 37-11 – "First WPIAL champion from Beth-Center in 10 years."

189–Alex Temple, Avella, 39-18 – "Cracked three vertabre in his back last season. Still hurting."

215–Ryan Watson, Burgettstown, 39-7 – "Persevered through two seasons of injuries to win 100th this season."

Hvy–Sam Brownlee, Canon-McMillan, 32-4 – "Illness and injury cost him at last two state tournaments."

Brownlee always an excuse when he losses. sick,hurt, sounds like he has a case of the Benzio. Brownlee quits in the wrestle backs, states 08, tri county 09,states 09, the kid is lazy and has no heart. All the talent in the world and no work ethic.

You wouldnt know the first thing about heart. The kid went out this year in states knowing he was going to lose with a tore mcl.

you don't wrestle with a torn mcl without a knee brace. you would need one of those knee braces that go from your ankle to your thigh. what was brownlee's excuse in the tri county after losing to kisla(the best 285 in washington county). Simple he quit, just like the zero knee brace wearing brownlee at states in the wrestle backs. (rolling over and getting pinned by a 210 pound heavyweight) he always complained when he was giving up so much weight but when he outweighes his opponents by 35 pounds his knee hurts. He has a life long case of the BENZIO.

I guess I should have been more clear. These are the best area (Washington-Greene County) wrestlers for the season. Carlynton is not in our coverage area and I would have picked Sherlock, too.
