3A-7 Preview:

BY BRANT PARSONS —

Kabra Wrestling Rankings are updated every week all season long for Kabra+ members.

Last season: Bloomingdale fought off a charging pack led by Armwood to win the district title be 12.5 points.

How did Kabra do?: We picked the champs correctly but we definitely missed the boat on Armwood’s meteoric rise. We won’t make that mistake again.

Last year’s district tournament results

Last year’s region tournament results

Wrestlers to watch: Sebastian Rodriguez, Sr. (Harmony); Adriel Rodriguez, So. (Harmony); Nevan Irving, Sr. (Harmony); Jesus Martinez, Jr. (Harmony); Leonardo Ortiz, So. (Harmony); Carter Rivera, Sr. (St. Cloud); Jose Herrera, Jr. (Harmony); Finn Ryan, Sr. (Viera); Ryker Thomas, Sr. (Viera); Taylor Reed Reynolds, Jr. (St. Cloud); Carlos Lopez, Sr. (Harmony); Kanye Mitchell, Sr. (Poinciana); Joenel Roman, So. (St. Cloud).

The favorite:Bloomingdale. If they have back what we think they’ll have back, they’re still the team to beat here.

Team to watch:Armwood. There’s something special going on in the Hawks room and while we whiffed on them last year, we won’t make that mistake this time.
