Something to be aware of, although these rankings are more fun for the fans rather than our upcoming Mat Classic results, on Tuesday the #2 ranked 3A 190 pounder (Kennewick) and the #3 4A 190 pounder (Hanford) wrestled in a dual meet. You’d think that’d make for a great match just based on those rankings, but there is more! These kids have some history this season. The Hanford kid beat the Kennewick kid 15-4 in the finals of the Bob Mars Invitational. Well, that Kennewick kid is tough and proceeded to pin the Hanford kid twice, in the Inland Empire and in the finals of the Winter Cup tournaments. So what happens this Tuesday? Hanford kid tech falls the Kennewick kid as time expires in the third round 17-2. The crazy part, as a fan, is it was a fun match to watch as there were a bunch of 50/50 positions that fell to the Hanford kid… luck I suppose, as the Kennewick kid is a good and dangerous wrestler.
