My Rankings (Before OVAC)

    Clay Tucker Martins Ferry a two time champion as a Junior was my number one choice all year, and  he delivered all year with an OVAC (With a technical Fall in the finals), Sectional , District and State Title to remain undefeated all year! Mike Durbin Brooke had an outstanding year and career. He wrestled a tremendous semifinal match where he beat the always tough Emery. He then went on to place second in the State. Jesse Emery Harrison Central a former OVAC Champion himself and a four time OVAC placer. Jesse also found himself in a very competitive weight class at the State Tournament, which he placed fifth. Jessie Mahan Oak Glen another excellent young wrestler, gave Tucker his toughest match and was very close to Emery  for third place,did close out the season with a third place State finish. I look for Mahan to push for a title next year!

    Also in this weight class you had 6 State Qualifiers, and 5 of those were State Placers and 1 State Champion: Jesse Emery, Cadiz Harrison Central, (12),  Clay Tucker, Martins Ferry, (11), Jessie Mahan, Oak Glen, 10, Kelly Hughes, Cameron, 11, Mike Durbin, Brooke,12, Ron Nelson, Wheeling Park, 10.
