The 2017-18 high school season is rapidly approaching, so what better way to get you ready for this year than looking back on some incredible matches?

It's almost never safe to use the word "best" when it comes to lists like this, but we think you'll enjoy the full baker's dozen of matches (plus a bonus one at the top).

Patrick McKee vs Rayvon Foley, Fargo Semis

The most controversial match of one of the biggest tournaments of the year.



Julian Ramirez vs David Carr, Ironman Semis

This one nearly caused Mike Mal to blow a gasket. One of the most exciting comebacks of the year can be seen here.


Spencer Lee vs Austin DeSanto, PIAA Finals

One of the biggest upsets in recent memory was also just a very good match. Watch the two-time Super 32 finalist and Drexel commit beat Lee here.

Jordan Decatur vs Gavin Teasdale, WNO

What a way to kick off Who's Number One last year. Decatur won the back-and-forth battle of Fargo champs and Cadet world teamers.



Peyton Robb vs Connor Brady, Akron Semis

One of the most clutch late fours you'll ever see happened right here.

Austin DeSanto vs Jacori Teemer, Super 32 Semis

This match had a little bit of everything. A clash of styles between Teemer's freewheeling counters and DeSanto's high action motor, high stakes, and the corners even got into it after the match ended. Re-live that one here.

Travis Wittlake vs Julian Ramirez, Akron Quarters

If you are a fan of Super Ducks, you'll enjoy this one.



Anthony Artalona vs Sammy Sasso, Fargo Semis

Artalona was carrying a 19-match winning streak in Fargo freestyle into this match. Sasso was leading late until an unorthodox four from Artalona put him in position to win. Watch that match here.

John Borst vs Gavin Hoffman, Super 32 Finals

Two of the best big men in the country had a controversial end to their S32 final. You can watch that match here. Also up for consideration but not making the list was Hoffman's match with Mason Parris at NHSCA duals.


Tyler Dow vs Jake Allar, Fargo Semis

Quite possibly the most ridiculous match I have ever seen in person. It was over... until it wasn't. From getting teched to making the Fargo finals, this was an epic comeback.



Robert Howard vs Brody Teske, Akron Quarters

Teske had this one won, until Howard got to rear standing and Teske looked like he tried to Granby out of it. Spectacular match, give it a re-watch here.

Sammy Sasso vs Peyton Mocco, FloNats Semis

It is always fun to see kids figure things out mid match. Mocco pushed Sasso to the brink after changing up his shot, producing the best match of the weekend, which you can see here.

Brian Courtney vs Jason Renteria, Journeymen Classic

A forgotten gem because it was the same day as WNO, Courtney took this controversial 135lb final at the Journeymen Fall Classic. Watch that match here.
