Tate is joined by Tom Kreager of The Tennessean to discuss the whirlwind of high school wrestling as the state duals kick off at the Ag Center. Despite a week of severe weather that disrupted practices and forced some teams to concede their sectionals, the tournament moved forward with a two-pound weight allowance to accommodate the athletes' lack of mat time. Kreager and Tate dive into the strategy of the dual format, noting the dominance of programs like Cleveland and the rising challenge from a loaded Nolensville team. Beyond wrestling, they discuss the growing trend of districts opting out of basketball tournaments to preserve the significance of the regular season, while looking ahead to a busy week of coverage including high school coaching insights and a special look back at the 25th anniversary of Dale Earnhardt’s passing.
