    2020 Class Champions - What is your prediction?

    Late summer predictions for LL (over three months out till season starts...or about 100 days):


    Class LL

    106 – ?

    113 – Longo (Trumbull) - 1st LL/AA @ Fargo GR or O’Dell (Danbury) - 5th NE @ 106

    120 – Currier (Hall) - 3rd Opens & NE @ 113

    126 – Johnson (Danbury) - 6th NE @ 120

    132 – Ebert (Warde) - 3rd Opens & NE @ 126

    138 – Jack (Danbury) - no need to explain this one, only that he is expected to go 138 - see http://www.hatterswrestling.com within '19-'20 Season Info

    145 – ?

    152 – Shaughnessy (Warde) - 3rd Opens & 6th NE @ 145

    160 – Mazur (Westhill) - 4th NE @ 152

    170 – Tsiranides (FP) - 2nd LL @ 160 or Vitti (Southington) - 5th Opens @ 160

    182 – Carr (Southington) - 1st LL @ 170 or Rasmussen (Warde) - 6th Opens @ 170

    195 – ?

    220 – Cocchia (McMahon) - 3rd LL @ 220

    285 – Agosto (Danbury) - 2nd LL & Opens @ 285, Weiner (Shelton) - 5th Opens @ 285, or Houston (New Haven) - 1st Opens @ 285


    Mainly rolled up the various weights from the 18-19 results within LL and Opens, except 138 (Jack - see link above) and for the 220/285, which are more stable. Some weight classes included "?" as I did not see many juniors or below that had a record/place of distinction in the prior weight class in 18-19. Many wrestlers could increase more than one weight class...at this point, just a guess.


    The other variable in this if there are any class changes (i.e., a school moving up/down to a different classification...LL to L, and vice versa). For example, does Simsbury and Xavier stay in the Ls or do they move up to LLs? Later in the fall, the updated classifications will be released via http://ciacsports.com/site/?page_id=976.

    Longo AA'd at 101lbs so pretty confident he will be at 106 this year. I see Jack at 132 and Kovacs back at 138 for Danbury.

    Now for the L...just under 100 days till the start of the season.


    106 – ?

    113 – Rapuano (Xavier) – 1st L/2nd Open/3rd NE @ 106

    120 – Aldi (BC) – 2nd L @ 113

    126 – T. Finn (Simsbury) – 1st L/3rd Open @ 120

    132 – Mairano (Simsbury) – 1st L/4th Open @ 126

    138 – Nichols (BE) – 1st L/3rd Open @ 132

    145 – Mastroianni (NC) – 1st L/1st Open/2nd NE @ 138

    152 – Sung (NC) – 1st L/1st Open/1st NE @ 145

    160 – Maleryn (RHAM) 3rd L @ 152 or Sirois (Simsbury) – 4th L @ 152

    170 – Bergin (Simbury) – 1st L @ 160

    182 – ?

    195 – ?

    220 – Dubon (Middletown) – 3rd L @ 220

    285 – Mackenzie (New London) – 3rd L @ 285 or Facey (BC) – 4th L @ 285


    Again rolled up each weight class up by one, which is making very strong assumptions as many go up more than one in actuality. The Ls seem pretty clear in many weights and very open in others, especially in the upper weights. In all, the Ls are very strong in many of the lower weights with a good amount of returning L champions or finalists (8 by my count). It would be very interesting if some of the excellent wrestlers in the lower/middle weights went up by more than one class, thus producing some excellent matchups.


    Again, the question is still at hand with some of the schools to whether they stay, enter, or exit from the Ls. But again, a very early late summer analysis...

    Now for the installment of the Ms...


    106 – ?

    113 – Brault (Joel Barlow) – 2nd M/4th Opens @ 106

    120 – Johns (Suffield/WL) – 4th M @ 113

    126 – O’Brien (Bacon) – 1st M @ 120 or Rondini (Platt) – 2nd M/2nd Open @ 120

    132 – Charron (Killingly) – 1st M @ 126

    138 – DiVito (E. Haven) – 2nd M @ 132

    145 – Stabile (Brookfield) – 4th M @ 138

    152 – Klein-Wassink (Joel Barlow) – 2nd M @ 145

    160 – Adams (Suffield/WL) – 1st M/1st Open/1st NE @ 152

    170 – McNeary (Joel Barlow) – 3rd M @ 160

    182 – Doucette (New Fairfield) – 4th M @ 170

    195 – LiCastri (Joel Barlow) – 1st M/1st Open/1st NE @ 182

    220 – Gens (Avon) – 1st M/5th Open @ 220

    285 – ?


    The Ms have 9 returning finalists, similar to that of the Ls, with 126 being the most interesting based on rolling up the weights one weight class. H. Adam and C. LiCastri are the real cream of the crop in this class being the returning NE champions (and only Ms wrestlers that did anything at the 2019 NE tournament in terms of placing).


    87 days till first practice/season opening...but who is counting?

    @John Both of those wrestlers performed well last year @ NEs. However, they were both seniors last year, thus cannot do anything in the Ms for the 19-20 season, which this thread is all about.

    106 - i think brault is coming back down. Matt Carozza is also in contention at this weight.

    Last installment of this thread...now for the Ss:


    106 - Hines (Haddam-Killingworth) - 3rd Ss @ 106/AA @ Fargo FS @ 100

    113 - Chapman (Montville) 2nd Ss @ 106

    120 - Levesque (East Hampton) - 1st Ss/6th Opens @ 113

    126 - Verdiglione (Nonnewaug) - 2nd Ss @ 120

    132 - Bond (Montville) - 2nd Ss @ 126

    138 - Bradley (Morgan) - 1st Ss @ 132 or Matthews (Gilbert) 2nd Ss/5th Opens @ 132

    145 - Light (Stonington) - 2nd Ss @ 138

    152 - Rodriguez Rivera - 1st Ss @ 145

    160 - Matthews (Gilbert) - 1st Ss @ 152

    170 - ?

    182 - ?

    195 - Cronin (Nonnewaug) - 1st Ss/2nd Opens @ 182

    220 - Lytle (Northwestern) - 2nd Ss/5th Opens

    285 - ?


    The Ss have a bunch of returning finalists from the 2018-19 season - 11 from my count. The 138 weight-class could be the barn-burner in this class with a possible rematch of Bradley & Matthews. Again, many assumptions here with only moving up one weight class from last year's results (i.e., the final weight classes should be very different once the season starts AND after the 2-pound allowance).


    72 days/10 weeks till opening day of practice...


    Any thoughts on the possible 19-20 Opens contenders at each weight?

    Cayleb Leclerc is going 145 again this year. He barely took second at 145 last year and was light for the weight class. This year will be his senior year !

    Here is my attempt at the Opens...October-1 Edition:


    106 - Brault (Joel Barlow) - 4th Opens @ 106 (and wrestled at 106 in Journeymen)

    113 - Rapuano (Xavier) - 2nd Opens/3rd NE @ 106

    120 - Currier (Hall) - 3rd Opens/3rd NE @ 113

    126 - Rondini (Platt) - 2nd Opens, T. Finn (Simsbury) - 3rd Opens, or Johnson (Danbury) - 5th Opens/6th NE @ 120

    132 - Ebert (Warde) - 3rd Opens/3rd NE @ 126

    138 - Jack (Danbury) - 1st Opens/1st NE @ 126

    145 - ?

    152 - Sung (New Canaan) - 1st Opens/1st NE @ 145

    160 - Adams (Suffield/WL) - 1st Opens/1st NE @ 152

    170 - Vitti (Southington) - 5th Opens @ 160 or Bergin (Simsbury) - 6th Opens @ 160

    182 - Rasmussen (Warde) - 6th Opens @ 170

    195 - LiCastri (Joel Barlow) - 1st Opens/1st NE @ 182

    220 - Lytle (Northwestern) - 5th Opens @ 195 or Gens (Avon) - 5th Opens @ 220

    285 - Agosto (Danbury) - 2nd Opens or Houston (New Haven) - 1st Opens


    There are many quality wrestlers coming back for a run at the Opens this upcoming season. For this analysis, I tried to stay with returning Open medalists, thus many other good wrestlers could contend for the Open title (i.e., many class champions did not place in the Opens).


    Many weights look stacked, especially in the lower weights (e.g., 126). Also many weights have returning Open finalists/champions/NE place-winners (8 returning Open finalists and 4 returning NE champions - Jack, Sung, Adams, LiCastri). However, the 145 weight class looks wide open as all place-winners at 138 were seniors last season (and all class champions were also seniors last year).


    Again, many assumptions made here as many wrestlers could go a different weight or could have moved out of state/go to private school (e.g., Mastrianni to Greens Farm Academy). Lastly, the 132/138 classes could change if Jack decides to go 132.


    62 days till the first practice...

    Will is a contender for sure, but L has the toughest line up at 106. 3 of the top 5 wrestlers in the state at 106 are in class L.
