SPIDEYDAMUS

103

From the Depths of the south he will rise, Bronco by name but merely a Pony, he will face A Patriot with plans of his own, who thinks he has the size to make the difference.


The Cuda smells Blood and seeks to avenge the loss twice delayed but must first depose the explorer.


The Buccaneer seeks the wind he will need to sail past them all, and a rematch with the Cuda will decide the battle.


The Explorer is lost in the storm and is the victim of a crowded sea, while the Bronco and the Cuda face off in round three; persistence and determination favor the Bronco once again as the region wreath hangs from his neck.

112

Lightning strikes above the fray in anticipation of a semi encounter


The Falcon from a long line seeks to achieve beyond his Brothers but a Buc will oppose him in quarter round.


The Bulldog sits on haunches waiting for a test that will come early as the Black Panther is fierce but falls bravely once again.


The Buccaneer finds his way in extended time and quells the lightning before falling to the hound in the final contest.

119

The Bulldog Brother from the Challenger Kennel will seek to double the family pleasure, and will thwart the Spartan to reach the peak


The Buccaneer disposes of a young Knight early on his way to a show down with the Dog


The Bronco seeks to best the Explorer who will be content to count as the lesser of four.


The Dog shows he is not easily thrown and repels the Buc’s advances to claim another crown.

125

A Patriot will find ease in the first pair he faces, but the true test and lesson will come.


The Rat Pirate will make his way through the northern pass but he must remain focused for the early test from the Explorer that seeks to turn Pirate slayer and capture the treasure away from the Brigand.


An upstart Bulldog still licking explorer blood from his muzzle will oppose any claim on the booty and advance to the final show.


In the End the Rat Pirate is too skilled and the rest must fight amongst themselves for the scraps.

130

The T-Bred has not missed a step despite the defection of the Horse whisperer and faces the Spartan early who has moved up to oppose his charge.


The Explore wins two but can’t reign in the Horse’s advance which leaves him and the Spartan holding their heads.


A Spartan defector from a lesser realm joins the Pirate Master and seeks to prove his worth in a tougher venue; there an eagle will spread his wings and brazen talons to oppose him.


The former Spartan turned Pirate falls to the Horse in epic battle, and the Eagle falls victim to this too fruitful class and does not move to the Land of Lakes where only four may attend.

135

The Eagle will fly in from the North and take his perch before the final battle, there he must defeat a Panther with blood lust for birds.


In the South stands a Pirate unopposed the proud commander of a vacated class.


The Eagle bravely stands his ground, but too much swash and too much buckle from the Pirate are his undoing.


Tico the Pirates reign continues as this swash buckler from Hispañola moves on the wet land to defend his claim on the ultimate treasure.

140

The Gator comes with clutching jaws and hopes of feasting on his opposition, but a fierce fish looks to wound and repel the Reptile.


The Cavalier finds an opening and sets in motion his assault, as the Buccaneer from the dominant hoard will hope his sword arm holds before the onslaught.


Cavalier and Trojan face of in Semi round, but the Trojan falls in the strangle of Montero the RED


The Gators strength and agility keeps him in the battle, but he ultimately succums to the Cavaliers Rapier.

145

The Explorer brings a bitter scowl and grandiose demeanor, but a broken sail will limit his action.


The American loyalist will stake his claim in early battle, and subjugate the obtrusive Explorer.


On the Bottom Kendrick the Freak rules this class with the might and agility of his thrust and parry, and there he’ll slay a Bull Dog in his path to the top.


In the End the Pirate Freak is too much for the Patriot and he moves on to conquer higher ground, while a Bronco that lost his Buc benefits from a fortuitous early loss to just make it back to the Dance.


152

A Starr will rise from the Trojan Land, but a Hound will harass his plan to advance.


A white Buc with a five o Clock shadow will ruin a Sting in anticipatory fashion.


The Hound stakes his claim in the upper half and finds a bearded Pirate with a penchant for denying access in the battle for the gold.


The Buccaneer with skills on high ground will ride and turn his opposition to dust and climb the podium to raise his gold standard.

160

The Spartan will hold his ground and pass more than just a few victims along the way among them a Patriot.


The Cuda must stop the Eagle, and the Brigand will need to avoid being stung to reach the semi round.


In the next to last battle, the Cuda seeks to stop the Brigand and advance to a round that has eluded him in the region, but too much is the Pirate for the battered fish.

The Spartan narrowly overtakes the Buc in the final moments and reaches the pinnacle that has eluded his mates

171

A Patriot warrior with bandaged knee seeks to continue his dominant assault, but will face and early test from an Explorer.


The Cobra hopes a quick sting can incapacitate and still his opposition but the great white Pirate with rebel blood has plans to thwart the serpent.


The Spartan anticipates revenge on the snake and an easy journey leads to that encounter but he is stung a felled in the process.


The Patriot is prepared with anti Venom, but it is an unnecessary precaution as he easily severs the Snakes head.

189

Yet another Pirate with lust for gold makes his way in top half.


The Explorer waits to prove his worth but first he must cure his demons with a Viper.


The Cobra must face the onslaught of the Savage Spartan beast.


Like 300 warriors, the Spartan slays the Pirate and forwards his assault on the Land of Lakes.

215

The Patriot with ease will make his way in this half of the bracket.


The Biggest Pirate will walk the line with Confidence, deposing early of a Cobra with venom lack.


An Equine and the Voyager will make battle on lower end with their eyes wide for Glory.


The Horse is not Bested until they final call when he Wiggs out and falls to Kong.

HWT

A Patriot Combatant advances is order, but a Brahma Bull stands in his way.


The Rodent Knight will walk to the semi half with nary a say from his opposition


The Spartan on Lower end will fall Victim to the Clydesdale charger.


The Rodent Knight out last’s the Clydesdale, and plays Matador to the Bull in monolithic contest

South Dade will not win regions. Yes, I am smoking something right now, no, I do not know who will win it. Just know this, you heard it here first. South Dade will not win the region.

Anonymous,

That is some good $hit my friend.

SD will win the region by 100 or so points.

Anonymous said...

There is no doubt by any of the coaches in Miami-dade that SD will win first place. To say otherwise is completely insane and illogical.

*Southridge is only sending 7 kids and they all should be in Semi's Saturday morning, including Morales at 130. Not enough horses to challenge SD but should be enough to claim silver.

lubin will not beat chandler
moralres will not beat nates
bell will not beat clarke

wake up brotha

Anonymous,

I have to agree with the other anonymous for the most part. I don't see South Ridge with anywhere near 7 in the semis. Maybe 3 or 4 is more realistic, and they would need a couple of upsets at that. I think they should be happy if they get 3. As for the Silver... More pipe dreams son, I see American and Braddock rising above the ridge, and the Ridge might have trouble hfending off Columbus for the 5th spot. If Homestead get a upset of two themselves, the ridge can fall as low as 6th. Good luck though.

Anonymous said...

Wow, I really thought this was a good site, with intelligent and informed Dade county posts.

Southridge should have all 7 in the Semi's, not the Finals.

Here's some help... 1st round, Quarters, Semi's, Finals.

Spiderman said...

Anonymous,

you are correct, what I meant o say was finalist, not semi-finalist, I was thinking ahead to semi winner and advancing. Anyway, here the possibilities in the semis.

Here is the math

119 - Lubin falls to Chandler

145 - Bell falls to Clarke or Watson

160 - Passmore - Finalist

171 - Lilly Falls to Castro

189 - Plain -Finalist

285 - McCray falls to Chinchilla

CoachKW said...

Not to bad Spidey,

You got 11 out of 14 champs right. You got 4 of the 14 finals correct.

Some of the upsets really threw off your predictions. Fontaine over Montero hurt you at 140. 215 no one saw the Norland kid coming, and Rabaza losing to Krop, ended up knocking 2 GMAC placers out of the running for State Qualifier.

It looked like NCAA Signing Day caused some of the bigger boys to miss the action this weekend. I would have liked to have seen Liguet vs McCray, but it was not to be. Chandler (The Brahma Bull) is tough, he just needs more time on the mat.

103 Hall yes, Villanueva wrong you had Noffo
112 Correct
119 Correct
125 Correct
130 You had Wilson taking second, but he won. You had Nates winnig but he took 3rd. You did predict that Ramirez SW would get left out.
135 Tico yes, Figueroa no, you had Ramirez
140 Parrado won, not 2nd like you said. Montero did not beat Fontaine and only took 3rd not champ.
145 Kendrick won, Watson won that first match and then beat Clarke to get to the Finals
152 Montalvo yes, I wish it would have been Medina, but Starr HML got there
160 Correct Passmore barely over Moore, but it was for 3rd not 1st. Garcia and Encarnacion won the semis you had them losing.
171 Correct
189 Plain yes, Abadin made the finals.
215 Wiggins yes, I don't think anyone saw what was going to happen on the bottom half of that bracket. Castillo seems to be done.
285 Chinchilla yes, Chandler NW no. Liguet Hia no. Suprised that McCray didn't get out, but Wethy Col did.

CoachKW said...

Spidey,

You were also right on with the prediction about SD's margin of victory. 113 points is what they won the Region by. I've never seen Vic get to sit in the corner for the finals for 9 straight matches. Even in District tournaments they never string together 9 straight Finalists.

Spiderman said...

KW,

I really appreciate the breakdown; it saves me a lot of time in a self evaluation.

The Candle was a bit fuzzy for the Spideydamus, but hey that's Region 4-3A.

What an incredible tournament. I know there will be shocks and upsets every year, but I am still surprised when it happens. It's always sad to see kids cry after the elimination round, especially those who it might have been their last shot to qualify, but that's just the way it is.

Fontaine wrestled a great match VS Montero; Believe it or not I was not surprised. Montero's wrestling has not improved very much if at all, he is very one dimensional, and Fontaine was prepared to take advantage of his weaknesses and exploit them. A match like that one shows Balmeceda's true genius much more than say the dominance of Rat, Tico, or Kendrick.

There are a few coaches out there that I really admire because they know how to prepare one wrestler to beat another though the other one might be a clear favorite. Balmeceda is definitely one of them.

I heard through the rumor mill that some kids did not participate and other left the tournament because they were told their football scholarships would be in jeopardy if they sustained injury. I think this is a travesty, I think the NCAA should be made aware of this, and I think any school which threatens a kid in such a manner should be penalized and sanctioned.

The Morales upset of Nates was a
Joke, no offense to the official, but he is clueless when it come s to stalling; someone should really speak with him on the subject because it makes him very inefficient.

I was a little surprised by the Goleman kid and Tico, but Goleman always seems to pop out a stud or two, what the hell is in the water over there?

I was impressed by Garcia, Osorio has proven his worth over the long haul now, and is o longer a flash in the pan that some might have thought. Garcia's dominance over Passmore tells me he is a legit contender for the Gold at Lakeland.

Perez, Over Castro threw me a little too, I expected Perez to have a much easier time of it, but Like Balmeceda, Pardo is one of those coaches that seems to get his kids best prepared at this time of the year, and can game plan for an opponent like few others can.

Abadin is a Robot; he needs to loosen up, he is fortunate to make the finals. I really liked the Varela kid to make it out, but he disappointed, though he is a much better athlete than Abadine. Still Abadine did what he had to do, and will likely place 3rd or 4th but not higher.

Chinchilla looks focused and has enough control to win the state, NW would be a monster in a worth y camp, but the NW coaches are much better at teaching tackling than at teaching doubles.

Thanks again for the breakdown of my performance.
