Best High School wrestler ever?

Kolat is a badass but it doesn't change the fact that Schultz took 2nd at Tblisi. Talking about kids who haven't even made it across the high school stage and received their diploma yet seems silly.

Cary Kolat and not one else comes close. 137-0, 4 X State Champion, OW each year (no one else has ever done that in the entire country I believe), only 10 wrestlers out of 137 made it the entire 6 minutes - that means he pinned or tech falled 127 wrestlers, pinned or technical fall every wrestler at State tournament, Junior world champion, placed twice at midlands in high school, P4P best wrestler his senior year - Asic All-American. Here he is his senior year: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vTTRJemDGUc

I appreciate that I am not the first one to mention Dave Schultz. If you are taking into account Freestyle and Greco, which you should be, Dave Schultz is by far the most accomplished High School wrestler of all time. Instead of writing it out myself I cut this from Wikipedia:

His high school wrestling records had qualified him to compete on his first U.S. international team in the Tblisi Tournament in Soviet Georgia, considered by many in the wrestling community as the "toughest tournament in the world." Schultz earned a silver medal and was the highest-placing American at the tournament. Due to the timing of Tblisi, Schultz failed to qualify for the California State Championships, but his coach Ed Hart successfully petitioned the state coaches association to allow him to compete. Wrestling two weight classes above his normal division, Schultz pinned all his opponents in the state championships but the last, whom he defeated 12-1 in the final match. Later that year he won his first national title by winning the U.S. National Open Greco-Roman Championships and won the award for most falls in the least amount of time. Schultz's senior year is considered by most experts as the most successful senior year in U.S. high school wrestling history.

Feel free not to comment on this post anymore unless you are talking about the second best.
Thank You.

Jake Deitchler from Anoka, MN went to the Olympics for Greco straight out of high school...

Kolat, no contest. Everyone who debates otherwise should check out this Sports Illustrated piece from his senior year of high school - http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/vault/article/magazine/MAG1003637/1/index.htm

How many high school sophmores have you ever known that could go to Midlands and place third? Kolat, end of discussion!

Marsteller and Snyder now-a-days.

Kolat back in the day!

Jason Tsirtsis

Cary Kolat, PA wrestler. Hard to beat.

The kid is just starting out but in my honest opinion my vote goes to Aaron "cheeks" Pico out of Cali.

Eric Grajales he was so dominant in high school

Garrett Scott.

Kolat!!!!
