119 lbs High School Wrestling National Individual Rankings (2010-2011)

Jimmy Gulibon (36-1) tops the list for the final regular season national rankings, ending his junior season with a Pennsylvania Individual State Championship.

Megaludis would go on to win 4-3, but Jimmy Gulibon and his season achievements, will gain the respect to earn him the No. 1

Cam Tessari (No. 1 @ 140) and Evan Henderson (No. 5 @ 140) To Meet at Dapper Dan

Evan Henderson (No. 5 @ 140) should be the favorite heading into his Dapper Dan Wrestling Classic match.

Just don’t tell him that.

Henderson, who is from New Florence and wrestled for United before transferring to The Kiski School three years ago, became the first local wrestler to compete in the main event of “The Rose Bowl of Wrestling” since Meyersdale’s Michael Warnick in 1989.

And Henderson likely will have his hands full with Cam Tessari (No. 1 @ 140), a four-time Ohio

Richie Bliss (No. 7 @ 103) Mission Accomplished with State Title

Richie Bliss (No.7 @ 103) had a weekend to remember. On Friday, he became the first Hernando County grappler to collect 100 pins. On Saturday, he added one pin and nearly another.

More importantly, the end result produced Springstead's first-ever three-time state champion tying the county standard set by Hernando High's Addison Chipoletti (2003-05).

On Saturday, Bliss pinned Melbourne sophomore Joe Miuccio in 73 seconds before solving Harmony's Ariel Dominguez for the second time in

Terrence Jean-Jacques (H.M. @ HWT) Fitting in Nicely at Wyoming Seminary

It's his third school in three years, and he's a good 10 hours away from home in Pennsylvania, but Haverhill's Terrance Jean-Jacques (H.M. @ HWT) is adjusting quite nicely at wrestling power Wyoming Seminary.

An undefeated New England heavyweight champion last year for the Hillies, Jean-Jacques is shining on a larger scale for Wyoming Seminary.

At last check, Jean-Jacques was 35-4, with two of his losses coming by one point to No. 1-ranked Brooks Black of Blair Academy, the first

Behind four individual winners, Union County captured the State Wrestling Championships team title in front of 4,270 fans at the Frankfort Convention Center.

Trinity junior Fahy and St. X senior John Lampe (160) backed up their No. 1 rankings with state titles. Eastern senior Kyle Durbin pulled off a bit of a surprise, beating previously unbeaten and

Jason Tsirtsis (No. 2 @ 140) Crowned Indiana's State Champion

P.J. Montgomery’s third trip to the Indiana state high school wrestling finals ended the same late Saturday night as his second trip had a year ago.

But at least this time he got to wrestle under the lights, losing the championship match at 140 pounds by a 15-5 score to Crown Point’s Jason Tsirtsis (No.2 @ 140).

Saturday’s win was the third in three seasons for the Crown Point junior, just the 32nd Indiana high school wrestler to win three championships three times and still

Earl Hall (No.15 @ 119) Miami-Dade's First Four Time State Champ

South Dade wrestling coach Vic Balmaceda wishes he could clone his senior Earl Hall (No.15 @ 119).

“He’s the perfect wrestler,” Balmaceda said. “I wish I could copy his DNA and make a hundred like him.”

There might not be another Miami-Dade County wrestler as successful as Hall for a while.

Hall completed his dream of becoming the first Miami-Dade wrestler to win four individual state championships in a career when he secured the 119-pound state title Saturday night at The
