Nik Fekete V. Damion Hahn

I wrestled against Nik at the Cadet world team trials when I was a sophmore in hs. He took me apart. But he was in no way arrogant about it. I started to follow his results and I never understood why he never won state. Well, because he was competing with HAhn, a year or so younger. Fekete's senior year Hahn and Fekete each won Fargo in concecutive Weight classes.

I'm excited to see these two go at it again. The most interesting part about this is the irony. Soes anyone else know of two kids who had somewhat of a rivalry, from the same state, that extended this far in their careers?

I know Tony Davis and TJ williams were on the same Highschool team, and wrestled in the NCAA finals, Maybe at Nationals this year. Reggie wright and Davis also had battles at least up until the senior level.

Anyone else?

Does anyone think Fekete pulls somewhat of an upset?

Then Hahn falls to Parks, shoot.

Falck vs. Ness could end up being that long running.

Jim Gruenwald lost his senior year state finals to Dennis Hall.. and many times after.. finally got over the hurdle in '00.

TJ and Tony were more like a mix of friends and brothers than rivals. Tony pretty much lived with TJ for awhile during HS and I don't remember them ever wrestling each other other than that match in the NCAA finals.

Yeah, Reggie and Tony were more rivals than Tony and TJ, though all of those guys are good friends. Chicago peeps stick together, right Bonnie?

Da's rite.

I believe that is the first time Nik has beaten Damion in an official bout over those many years.

A few years ago I picked up TJ and Tony from O'Hare. They were coming from some east coast camp. Anyway, they had been shopping and were both stylin' in their new baby blue Timberlands - much more like brothers than rivals.
