The eternal question ever since the state created a small-school tournament. If everyone was still together and the small schools didn’t get their own tournament, how many of the DII champions would still be champions. As a reminder when you vote, here are the matchups.
96 – Trey Aslanian vs Mike Parise
103 – Jimmy Kyreakedes vs Sam Speno
112 – Anthony Calvano vs Brian Realbuto
119 – Penn Gottfried vs Billy Watterson
125 – Ryan Osleeb vs Steve Rodrigues
130 – Greg Caneparo vs Henry Stauber
135 – Tim Boyle vs Joe Slane
140 – Andrew Mancusi vs Kevin Davidson
145 – Dan O’Gorman vs Ryan Tompkins
152 – Chris Graybeal vs Mark Diaz
160 – Ray Wang vs Scott Genovesi
171 – Jarron Saunders vs Joe Cummings
189 – Sean Degnan vs Ron Fermin
215 – Kris Castro vs Lucas Myer
285 – Amos Pierette vs Andy Scopino

I have also witness many a night at Degl. Dont be so sure SROD would beat Osleeb. In a 1 hour match no doubt. 6 minutes both at that their best…I have seen it go both ways.
remember people might move based on the weight class. Osleeb may have moved to 119 or 130 if 125 was not in the cards. I think he could beat Stauber at 130.
Osleeb is less likely to beat SROD, but it is possible. SROD has won big matchs, Osleeb less so. But when both are at their best, I have seen them go…would not count Osleeb out. BTW there is NO way Osleeb would loose to Peragine who came in 3rd. Both have improved this year and yet Osleeb majored him last year. Likely same out come this year.
Everyone who thinks that large school is that much better in certain weight classes have their head up their ass.
96 is the perfect example. Aslanyan and Longo .There is reason to believe this would/could be the final in both large and small school.
Let the large school moaning begin
Grappling, you are an idiot. There is also “reason to believe this would/could be the 5th/6th place match.”
Let the moronic comments continue…

You clearly have no idea what you are talking about. Give me 1 reason you think this would be 5th/6th place match other than the fact that you had to spell check moronic.
Both would be finalists.
Grappling, I think he was mostly commenting on the fact that you said everyone has their head up their ass, but you did not list any actual reasons for your opinion either… I would call your post more “ironic” than “moronic.” (no spell check required)
Also, “large school moaning?” The only sound I can hear is the sound of Small school wrestlers rejoicing that are now going to states, even though if there were no “small school” they might not have placed top 6.
Yes I was actually Redr thanks. I only find it funny Grappler that you post something very bold, follow it up with no evidence, then proceed to say everyone else has their heads up their ass. My problem was less with your prediction and more with your unintelligent presentation of it.
My opinion is that the winner of Aslanian/Longo (its a tossup every time) would have an outside chance to beat Caputo, but not Parise. The loser of Aslanian/Longo would then go for 3rd and 4th, either with Caputo or the other small school wrestler. I will concede that there is a chance one of them would make it to the finals, but neither of them would have any chance at beating Parise.
LOL An2 ur bein too nice… small school sucks grapler let the small school moaning begin LOL
i belive it is hilarious how people have doughted boyle all year, at coutnies after almost defeating caputo did people finally catch on, Boyle beat 2 outstandign wrestlers at eastern states and came 1 match away from placing in top 8. Watch him in the room although he is a 125 poudner wretslign at 135 he holds his own. also caneparo would beat stauber on pure stength alone. All peopel do is suck westchester off. I went to the state practices and watched lil wetschester kids cry about inujries and strut around like there sh*t dotn stink. Pshh wrestlign is a fight with rules toughest kid with 1 or 2 good moves wins plaina nd simple this technical bullcrap doesnt create champions.
so much hatin
why can’t we all be friends
Small School States = Large School Sectionals
