Holmdel: 33 District Champs (Last: 2022) / Streak: 6 Seasons / 2 Team Titles (Last: 1982) |
After an 18-year run without a champ, the Hornets have had at least one District Champ in each of the last 6 tournaments. They have also had multiple medal winners in each of those tournaments. Alex Reyes is coming off the winningest regular season for a freshman at Holmdel since Scott Dupont won 31 bouts in 2015, and earned a #1 seed at 175. He'll be looking to make it 4 consecutive Districts in a row for the Hornets with a freshman medalist, and perhaps become their first freshman District Champ. Junior AJ Todisco, a runner-up last season, also received a #1 seed for the Hornets at 150.
Manalapan: 108 District Champs (Last: 2022) / Streak: 10 Seasons / 9 Team Titles (Last: 2022) |
Manalapan had 10 medal winners, including 4 champions, as they captured the team title last season, 17 points ahead of Hopewell Valley. All 4 champions return in Andrew Mucciolo (113), Anthony Vitola (120), Vincent DePierro (132), and Vincent Kain (144), and received the top seeds at their weight classes, as did Kenny Wines (190), a runner-up last season. Manalapan also received #2 seeds for junior Constantine Kilaras at 215, and heavyweight Artem Reinikov-Jouk, and four 3-seeds.
Weight To Watch
150 has 7 double digit winners, including 3 returning medal winners, a returning 4th place, and a 21-win 6th seed. The deepest weight here in a District that doesn't really have a whole lot of those.
Team Title Prediction
The seeds say Manalapan is the favorite with the five #1's, as well as the two 2nd's, and four #3's. For Hopewell Valley to close the gap from last season, they're going to need a couple of those #1's for the Braves to get knocked off, and the Bulldogs can't slip up themselves. Have to go with the Braves to repeat here though.
