Looking at last year's 28 finalists...
15 were Seniors, leaving 13 underclassmen.
only 1 isn't returning - C'burg's Andrew Robertson, a 3x top 3 placer who took ill this Winter.
Of the 12 returning...
8 are from Region IV
6 are from either C'b or Grundy
2 didn't win their Region last week (Vandyke & Gravely)
6 won (*) last year - all from different schools, but 3 were from Region IV.
5 of the 6 runners-up are from Region IV.
The only 'defending' champ will be Miller.
112 *Devin Carter (C'b), Sean Vandyke (Grundy) [103 rematch? 13-3 last year]
119 *Tony Gravely (Magna Vista), Jeremy Hurley (Grundy) [112 rematch? 6-0 last year]
135 *Andrew Williams (Tabb), Ethan Owens (Grundy) [130 rematch in the semis? 5-3 last year]
140 Chris Smith (Chancellor) [125]
145 *Bryce Kiser (TA) [135]
160 Derek Woody (C'b) [160]
171 Braden Carter (C'b) [171]
189 *Derrick Borlie (Millbrook) [171]
