Amato with a fall - Region 5 Champ!
Paul Kenny with a fall - Region Champ!
Duffy with a 4-0 DEC - Region 6 Champ!

Watch these 3 at New Jersey State Tournament next weekend. New Jersey, like California, only has 1 Classification! Only the best in the state will walk away State Champion.

NJ State brackets came out today . Wrestling starts Thursday

Paul Kenny the 1 seed at 126. He ll breeze to a title but not for lack of competition .He’ll have a lock haven commit in the quarters and an App State commit in semis. Finals tbd but most likely an army commit. Random fact Reese Humphreys son is a freshman and in this bracket.

Bobby Duffy top seed at 144. Should cruise to semis then have either a Hofstra or Northwestern recruit and a rematch from team states in the finals against Rutgers recruit DeGeorge. Duffy controlled the most recent matchup but hes 1-1 against him in high school overall

Sonny Amato should breeze to the finals but may see Frank Molinaro nephew in the 1/4s (just a freshman amato will pin him) , a Virginia commit in the semis and a final against either a nationally ranked sophomore or nationally ranked jr whose committed to Princeton. Both guys in the finals are capable of pulling an upset.

All 3 guys are favored to win. If Kenny doesn’t win it might go down as the biggest upset in NJ history. Duffy is in for a tough final. Amato could bonus a kid in the finals or drop a close one just depends which version shows up.

It used to be on flo and it was great but NJ.com bought the rights a few years ago to the dismiss of everyone and they stream the whole tournament on their site but they make you buy passes, either a day pass , whole weekend or finals. It’s a scam the finals used to be broadcast for free on the local nj news channel

Kenny has 2x state medalist (3rd and 8th) and App State recruit Dalton Weber in the semis. Weber is tough but not on Kenny level. Weber lost 11-7 to Duffy at states last season.

Duffy has 2x state medalist (2nd and 8th) and Northwestern recruit Seach Hilber in the semis. Hilber is a dangerous pinner and actually has placed higher than Duffy ever has. Duffy looks pretty unbeatable so far though.
just a heads up Duffy is one of those guys with rubber knees that bend in directions knees are not supposed too so be prepared to hold your breathe or cringe every time he’s in a scramble the next 4 years

Amato has 1x placer (4th,R12 2x) in the semi.I think he’s on a different level but he didn’t look good earlier today. His possible finals match up looks like it could be best of the bunch.

When Duffy committed ill admit didnt know much about him. The more I've followed him this year im thrilled he's gonna be a hawk rooting big time for him. And thanks for the heads up!
