Jax Forrest entered in Powerade?

[BruceyB]

Not sure of the logistics, but I'd assume this means he is still an active student at Bishop-McCort. Second semester doesn't start until January 12th, so there is still some time left, but curious if this means anything in the "wrestling second semester" story.

Im glad ok state needs him long term. Psu to good. Hopefully can challenge down the road.

I think I saw Minnow claim this would be his “last HS match,” if true still seems possible he will be at OK State this year

It's more curious that he ducked Ironman. Who was he afraid of???????

Good point. It didn't work too well though as he'll have the 138 Ironman champ (Brown) in his bracket, as well as the third placer (Corbin) and the 144 runner-up (Dekraker)

Willie has removed him from rankings because he is moving to Stillwater and I do not think he would do that if that were not definitive. Now as mentioned that does not mean he will be wrestling this next semester.

Jax posted a goodbye McCourt thing on his TikTok. I think this is meant to be his final time out in HS

This is just a huge national conspiracy psyop to get Jax Forrest onto the Stillwater HS team to finally win a coveted Oklahoma state title

Really?? I do not think he is ducking anyone in HS.  Raney is the only one that would be competitive with him around his weight.

Flo just posted a live link to the Powerade semis via YouTube an hour ago.

Corbin is a dog, I think they wrestled a lot together growing up their match last year was fairly competitive as well by Jax standards. Feel like the ref left a few points off the board for Jax.

Congrats to Chase Booser a 14 year old freshman who won 3 matches at Powerade and who scored 4 points on a 19 year old world team member at a high school tournament. He was wrestling jr. high last year - The kid is going to be tough.

Yes he is committed to Pitt. 

It's St. Edward. STED. Just a pet peeve of mine. Not looking to be cantankerous or petty.

Unnecessary. I figure folks don't know. 

It's like the State / States debacle except folks do know...

I can assure you that Saint Edward alumni could care less if you call it St. Ed's, many of us do. 

Karson was a pretty much sure shot to Pitt. He is very close with his brother Kade, who was not heavily recruited by Ohio St.

Which is fine with me. The alumni refer to it as St. Edward just as you did.

I'm not looking for a pissing match Brother. It's why I followed up like I did...

 

[gimpeltf]

My understanding in my dealings with them was either was correct (St Edward probably preferable) but St Edward's was wrong.
