COMMENT: The Eagles graduated three-time state champion Pete Derstine. Douglas is low in numbers, particularly at 189 and 215. Furbush placed third in the region and was a state qualifier. Contes is the team’s top underclassmen and could surprise.

RETURNING WRESTLERS: Brett Wishna (Jr., 103); Evan Locker (So., 112); John Martin (Jr., 119); Grant Horna (So., 119); Chad Rudnick (So., 125); Ricardo Lopez (So., 152); Ty Ebert (Jr., 145); John Panzer (Sr., 160).

NEWCOMERS: Josh Sockel (Jr., 130); Jordan Bis (Jr., 130-135).
COMMENT: The promising wrestler is Jones, a state qualifier who also placed second in the district and third in the region as a freshman. The Sharks were 10-6 in dual meets a year ago and should better that with a solid core of returning athletes.
District 11 3A
Predicted Finish: 1. Plantation; 2. Piper; 3. Boyd Anderson; 4. Dillard; 5. Taravella; 6. Ely; 7. Stranahan.

COMMENT: The Cobras should improve with the core of the team back. Godson is a two-time state qualifier and has recovered from a knee injury that sidelined him most of last season. Dykes was a district champion last year at Dillard but began practice late because of football. He should challenge for individual honors.
Dillard Panthers
COACH: Clenner J. Goodman (first year).
1999 FINISHES: 21st in county, 5th district, 15th in region.
RETURNING WRESTLERS: Wilbur Simpson (Sr., 119); Joel Miller (Jr., 125); Johnny Walker (Sr., 130); Jerry Richarson (So., 189).
NEWCOMERS: Christopher Myricks (So., 171); Demetris Gulie (So., 119).

RETURNING WRESTLERS: Steve Dumervil (Sr., 145-152); Daniel Jean-Marie (Sr., 171); Justin Sobol (Sr., H); Perin Registre (So.,189).
NEWCOMERS: Tommy Holloway (Sr., 215); Eddy Nicholas (So., 135); Ben Pierre Louis (Fr., 103).
COMMENT: The team is young with eight freshmen but could be bolstered by several football players who plan to wrestle after the playoffs. Ely might not have a full lineup but does have more athletes than in past years.
Piper Bengals
COACH: Anthony Valachovic (first year).
1999 FINISHES: 15th in county, district runner-up, 20th in region.

COMMENT: The Bengals return many athletes who contributed to an 11-2 dual-meet record. Valachovic, an assistant last year, takes over for Steve Williams, who accepted a job with the United States Olympic Committee in Colorado Springs. Shaw is a returning district champion.
Plantation Colonels
COACH: Jordan Frei (third year).
1999 FINISHES: 17th in county, district champion, 13th in region.

Ken Dedeck (Sr., 171-189), transfer from South Plantation; Zach Bennett (So., 160).
COMMENT: Dorado and Luscious, returning district champions, lead the team. A handful of wrestlers attended a camp over the summer, so the Colonels should improve. Plantation won a weak district last year and could repeat.
Stranahan Dragons
COACH: Jim Payne (third year).
1999 FINISHES: 25th in county, seventh in district, 27th in region.
RETURNING WRESTLERS: Jason King (So., 125); Bryan Stepenanko (So., 145); Craig Neale (So., 152);

NEWCOMERS: Vito Pelikan (Fr., 103); Anton Zimin (Fr., 112); Joe Tocarra (Jr., 160); Mo Rivero (So., 189).
COMMENT: The Dragons lack seasoned competitors, so they aren’t likely to challenge for team titles this season. The core of the team is underclassmen.
Taravella Trojans
COACH: Rich Cecere (first year).
1999 FINISHES: 13th in county, third in district, 10th in region.

NEWCOMERS: Lane Kaplan (So., 171); Emmanuel Guzman (Fr., 189); Mike Guzman (So., 215).
COMMENT: Cecere, a 1983 graduate and former wrestler at Boyd Anderson, takes over coaching duties from Eric Gibian. Villard, Gold and Lehrer should emerge as the top wrestlers for a team that is still young.

NEWCOMERS: Nick Price (So., 171), transfer from Flanagan; Lewis Redondo (So., 125), transfer from Miami Belen Jesuit.

COACH: Pat McNamara (fifth year).
1999 FINISHES: 3rd in county, district champion, regional champion, 11th at state.

Jorge Gilligan (Sr., 135); Robert Marhan (Sr., H); Chris Minter (Sr., 215-H); Luis Garcia (Sr., 189-215); Charles Kepler (Sr., 152).
NEWCOMER: Erie Coney (Fr., 103).
COMMENT: The Falcons are coming off their best season. Some good wrestlers are returning, but Flanagan doesn’t have the quality throughout the lineup that it had last year. Still, it will challenge Cooper City for the district title. Keizman, a district and regional champion, returns along with Rosario, who has state-tournament potential.
McArthur Mustangs
COACH: Dana Sorensen (second year).
1999 FINISHES: 18th in county, 5th in district, 16th in region.
RETURNING WRESTLERS: Faizul Gannon (Sr., 103); Kevin Rosenthal (So., 119-125); Chris Stuve (So., 125-135); Jesus Rosado (So., 140-145); David Coleman (So., 140-145); Jason Dale (Sr., 135-140); Steve Lorenzo (Sr., 160); Matt Bass (Sr., 171); Robert Ortega (Sr., 189); Adriel Indart (So., 215); Brian Jean-Louis (145-152).

COMMENT: The Titans didn’t qualify an individual for state last year but return almost a full team. Manzo heads the list of returning veterans. The addition of Golding is a big plus, but the move from 2A to 3A means much tougher competition.
South Plantation Paladins
COACH: Roger Gronert (sixth year).
1999 FINISHES: 14th in county, 7th in district, 21st in region.
RETURNING WRESTLERS: Jordan Knapper (Jr., 103); Reynaldo Hernandez (Jr. 112); Jeff Schuler (Sr., 125); Justin Waggoner (Sr., 135); Cody Waggoner (Jr., 125); Roger Desravines (So., 145); Jason Whittaker (Sr., 189); Mike Trotman (Sr., 189); Ryan James (Sr., 215); Cameron Thomas (Sr., H).
NEWCOMERS: Matt McDermott (Fr., 140); Matt Lowe (Jr., H); Aaron Kater (So., 119).
COMMENT: The Paladins have 45 wrestlers out, so they’ll fill all weight classes. Knapper, Hernandez, Schuler, James and Whittaker are the core of the team
Western Wildcats
COACH: Dan Moody (sixth year).
1999 FINISHES: 9th in county, 3rd in district, 7th in region.
RETURNING WRESTLERS: Jason Valdes (Sr., 125); Sean Monroe (Sr., 135); Richie Kelly (Jr., 140); Tyrell Osceola (Jr., H); John Sanzari (Sr., 171).
NEWCOMERS: Eric Morales (Jr., 145), transfer from Naples.
COMMENT: Valdes is a returning county champion and state tournament qualifier and should be the top individual competitor. Numbers are down, and the school probably will have trouble filling all weight classes.
District 16 2A
Predicted Finish: 1. St. Thomas; 2. Fort Lauderdale; 3. Miramar; 4. Hallandale; 5. Dr. Krop; 6. Northeast; 7. Hollywood Hills; 8. South Broward.

COMMENT: The Flying L’s are led by Marc Dorvil, a county and district champion, and Arisca, a returning district and regional champion. Fort Lauderdale has the depth to challenge for team honors this season but still must fend off defending champion St. Thomas.
Hallandale Chargers
COACH: Allen Held (11th year).

RETURNING WRESTLERS: Yashpaul Tominson (Sr., 112); Ezar Johnson (Sr., 119); Nathan Richardson (So., 125); Elijah Brice (Sr., 135); Goivany Fleux (Jr., 130); Jerry Pierre (Sr., 145); Jonathan Hernandez (Jr., 152); Steven Wright (Sr., 161); Danny White (Sr., 183); Nicklas Blanding (Sr., 152-160); Kyle Kedroe (Sr., 215); Leroy Taylor (Sr., H).
NEWCOMERS: None listed.
COMMENT: Brice, 24-2, was one of five state champions from Broward County last year and should challenge again, moving up a weight class. Felix is a returning district champion, and Kedroe is a regional champion. The Patriots move down from a tough 3A district.
