These team duals will be very fun but what might be even more exciting are some of the individual match ups that could happen. Here are some of the most exciting possible match ups and notes for the individual side of the tournament:

  • 145lbs - #4 Brock Hardy (Box Elder) vs. # Jaron Jensen (Herriman)
    • Rematch of the Layton finals where Jaron Jensen defeated Hardy. This will take place on Friday.
  • 132lbs - #19 Logan Jensen (Herriman) vs. #18 Corbin Smith (Wasatch)
    • Logan looked tough this past weekend but can he get by Smith from Wasatch?
  • 132lbs - #20 Kedric Coonis (Uintah) vs. #18 Corbin Smith (Wasatch)
    • This could be the 4A state finals match and will be an early look at who will be the guy to beat in 4A.
  • 285lbs - Ben Bos (Wasatch) vs. Riley Taylor (Box Elder)
    • Battle of the big boys, the winner will probably take the top spot in 4a for the time being and could be All-Star implications on the line. 
  • 120lbs - Braiden Parker makes his debut at 120lbs. Will he dominate and could we see a possible Jaxon Cole vs. Braiden Parker in the future? Parker shouldn't be challenged too much this weekend at 120lbs though. 

With the All-Star selections coming up in a couple weeks there will be many big match ups with the All-Star selection on the line so things will be intense this weekend!
