At 220 dont forget the highest returning placer David Denne from Mt. Carmel who took 4th. Also Blair from Edwardsville will be a senior and he took 2nd at 195 to Johnson. Id expect him to be at 195 or 220 Also Josh Pruitt from Marist will probably be at 195 he took 4th at state. Throw in guys who didnt place, but should make some noise like Howell, Threloff, Gore, Fleckenstein, and Hecox and also guys who bump up 195 and 220 will return a lot of talent.

I can sense a storm brewing on the South Side...a mean nasty storm that is "the Caravan". John Kading's Mount Carmel squad is going to turn some heads this year and beyond.

What is their freshman class looking like this year? Also is their truth that Jose Champagne (Indiana) will be attending Mt. Carmel?

Good list.
Without thinking about it too much I would change:
106 Brian Rossi of Lockport
I don't think Murphy wrestles as high as 160, so I would have him at 152 and possibly Holler at 160.
220 Lucas Warren

They will definitely be better than recent years, but not quite nasty. Not yet anyway.

Dru Worker from TP Bulldogs and Jake Tucker from Indiana. I thought Champagne was penciled in as Montini's 132lber, but we'll see.

My thought was that Rossi would be too big for 106 next year, but since he's 106 for Fargo who knows.
Agree with you that Murphy and Holler could swap weights
What school is Lucas Warren going to? Thought I heard Montini or West Aurora?

I don't think Montini is in play for Warren. I think he winds up at Marmion or West Aurora.

After a little thought, I would change 120 to "The Last Man Standing". Imo this weight will be the most wide open with a lotta of talented wrestlers that like 106 last year could each win it all or because of the depth, not place at all.
Possible 120lbers:
Northrup
Pique
Marmolejo
Jimenez
Zabala
Duda
Nasenbeny
Cullen
Stzrelcyk (sp?)
