Jered Cortez, Butler 1 Dec Nathan Tomasello, Brecksville 1, 6-5

Bowder from nebraska only lost to tomasello by 2 in overtime and he had a bad call that cost him the match

I think Jeff Jordans has perfected holding kids back in school for wrestling.I guess he gets an edge where ever he can to produce national champion

You just gotta complain cuz you cant beat him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ahah why dont the co to cali state soo they can get there ass wooped in the first 2 rounds!!!

kid in red sucks is all, otherwise he would have a chance

heard cortez got beat down like a little girl at a wrestling camp by a kid from cali who is only 11 years old.

In Colorado you can not be 19 before September1 your senior year. If you turn 19 after september 1 you can still wrestle but not before! Alot of these kids dont hit puberty and complain about not being bug enough is because they wont eat. You cant cut weight your whole life and then complain that you are not big enough to wrestle in highschool. They also complain about going to a tournament and only having one or two kids in there bracket. Here a clue eat some food and let your body grow if you lose a match the sun is still going to come up. How many DI schools are looking at these 103llb seniors

Held back in CO moves to OH held back. If you move to PA next year you can buy beer as a senior Hello!

Nathan/Jared...great job to both of you. look forward to watching you wrestle again.

jereould is 13, and thank you!!

good job jered. your how old?

You guys are right. I am a retard. I better just shut my trap.

i wish i was like 15 in the sixth grade. good job jered youl be a three timer but youl be driving your self to the state touney in eigth grade.

Ringworm, you must have ring worm on your brain or you're from Army. But, I speak the facts. If Jared is too old in 8th grade, then we cannot compete at that level. Look it up dimwit or make a call to OHSAA.

it's cool tomasello you took 1st at tournament of champions and west Virgina nationals

Navy Wrestler, you are an idiot. That message was no more from Jered Cortez than you are a Navy Wrestler. Did anybody check proof to verify that you were a Navy Wrestler? I hope you can see the sarcasm in that because you are a little slow on the uptake!!

neiether of these kids hit puberity

Nathan and Jared -- congratulations, it was a well fought battle. For Jared, I see you are 14 years old (according to your comment) and in the sixth grade. That means 15 yrs old in 7th and 16 yrs old in 8th. I believe according to OHSAA rules you cannot compete as a 16-year-old while in the 8th grade, and can only wrestle 3 years in high school because you will be too old. I sure hope you were not held back for wrestling ... anyway, good job.

Great, another Ohio official that doesn't have a clue what stalling is. Note the sarcasm---since when is circling and/or sprawling considered stalling? Only in Ohio. These officials at the JH state and HS state level need to get together and have some sort of evaluation. They are not improving as officials when they continue to make the same bone head calls. By my book, failure for an official to improve his knowledge is stalling. They are stalling their career and tragically are a detriment to these kids. Get it together.

Eds has there hold backs...You ever here of a kid named Lance Palmer!

Wow, there are a lot of kids who fail or get held back because of poor grades or attendance. You never hear complaints about that. What if you held your kid out of kindergarten and started him or her later because the child or the parent was not ready? Would it be an issue then? The OHSAA has age limits and none of these kids that are targeted by complaints violate those rules. What are they doing wrong?

FUTURE GRAHAM HISTORY MAKER!!!!!!!!!!
SAY WHAT YOU WANT ABOUT JARED AND THE GRAHAM PROGRAM... BOTH WILL CONTINUE TO WIN STATE TITLES REGARDLESS.

why doesn't every buddy just shut up about it and leave it alone it is over and u can't do anything about
it.

jered is 13, 14 in august, he will graduate at 19, what's wrong with that? those of us who have competed in the sport understand. he's 78 lbs, he still has to put on 30 lbs by his fresman year (103lbs)to make a run at a state title, by the way he's a straight A student.

Maybe if eds had more hold backs they could beat little old Graham but since they cant and wont for a while it looks like they will have to just Crybaby about it as far as the match goes it was good but Cortez should have gotten another penalty point for the poke in the face if tomassello would not have caught Jered of guard in the beginning it would not have been close he is a beast anyway and both these guys should be proud.

you tell em jered, you gona come back to CO ever?

So what if I'm fourteen. I'm still allowed to wrestle.

at least st iggy can graduate kids

he's 13 you idiot!!!!!

cortez is 14 and is a hold back and he is in 6th grade. Holding a kid back to wrestle? What is that telling the kid, that wrestling is more important than grades? Is he going to graduate HS at 20 years old? Smart move parents.

dont see a hole lot of hold backs on eds and blair it is an problem at graham. it is sad that this is brought up with every graham kid

hold backs happen everywhere are every year. not just at graham. st eds, blair you name em they got em.

stop haten on graham

another hold back starting to be a theme with these graham kids.

6th grade my eye...another hold back from what I hear.

Sorry I messed this name up to start out with, my bad.

Cortez is at least 13yrs old and in the 6th grade!
