140 @ State...Who U Like...

Another top weight class on paper if it turns out the way the predictors say it will...who do you see winning the 140's...ignore the IHSA bracketing factors...

I like Taylors style, however he was controlled in his match with Munster. Unless Munster is upset early, I don't see Taylor winning it over Lee. I do like Taylor in the top four though. As far as the finals go... I think if Munster and Barnhisel are on opp. sides, I like these two to be in the finals. I think Barnhisel has the gas tank to beat Monaco and I don't think Monaco has enough to beat Munster either. Very interesting to see how this weight shakes out as I think Munster, Barnhisel, Taylor, and Fenicle have enough to beat Monaco, yet most think Monaco is the front-runner. This weight class will be worth the price of admission alone... well... that and the 171 most anticipated match.

Throw Larson into the mix, who buy the way beat fenicle earlier in the year and this has got to be the weight to watch in Champaign. Larson wrestled 145 last year so he must be a huge 140.

I agree. 140 is loaded with guys...even some pretty good lesser know kids that can shake up the party...but still plenty of star power...and yes Larson is a big 140...get away from that V.I.P. booth when these guys start coming out the tunnel

If Larson was a little more consistant, I think I would have thrown him in with the top 4. I hope he was just having a bad match at the finals in geneseo. Guess he was getting thrashed by the ICW kid and was giving up points for stalling at the end of the match. I think if we see that Larson, he won't be in the top 4. If Larson builds a lead early though... watch out!
