Sharpsville Scouting Report
The 6-0 Raiders host the Blue Devils at Reynolds. Junior High starts at 6:00. Varsity begins at 7:00.

New Scouting Report Format
Please bear with me as we try different ways to present this material. I usually do web browsing on a laptop so it was a bit of a surprise (not in a good way) when I tried to use my own report on a cell phone during the Raider Duals last weekend.
This is an attempt to make it easier for cell phone users, which make up about 70% of our fans. The key changes are that I reduced the indenting and wide lists (such as the rosters) in order to eliminate, or at least minimize, uncontrolled word wrapping. Also, I am using collapsible topics so that you can quickly find information without endless scrolling.
Let me know if this is better for you. If this doesn't work, I will try a new method for the next match.
Overview
The Blue Devils come to Reynolds tomorrow with what appears to be one of their better teams in recent years. Currently, they are ranked as the 9th best team in the Northwest Region (compared to Reynolds' rank of 3rd).
This is the 56th meeting between Sharpsville and Reynolds with the Raiders winning all 55 of the previous contests. Sharpsville was last on the mats in a December 22 match with Greenville. A big question is whether this will make them healthy and rested ... or rusty?
Once again, there will be plenty of good matchups in the match that all the fans should want to see.
Sharpsville Team Records
Sharpsville has built a very respectable 9-5 record before coming to battle the undefeated Raiders (6-0). For most matches, they have fielded a full lineup until 121 pounder, Tanner Fryman, suffered an injury at the Norwin match. Since then, they have forfeited at least one weight per match. Hopefully the extended time off has allowed everyone to get healthy for their first match in 2023.

Ranked Wrestlers & Key Matchups
Both teams have a number of wrestlers ranked in the region and state. As always, I advise you to look at these as a fun conversation item. They mean nothing more than acknowledgement of some past successes. Many times, qualified newcomers are overlooked.
What this might tell us is that we have a potential of seeing some great matchups. At 133, Alex Rueberger and Chase Bell have very similar state and regional rankings. Sharpsville's Summers (152) will be a good test for young, unranked Louie DeJulia to see how he fares against a ranked wrestler. A Josh Divens (172 or 189) matchup with Jalen Wagner or Brayden McCloskey may be the highlight of the evening! Sharpsville's unranked David Moyer (172-189) will provide plenty of competition at the weight class that Divens does not wrestle.

Sharpsville Roster
A change on roster listing information. I will list just the lowest weight class a person has wrestled and not every weight class they competed. It takes too much space, and we know that lots of maneuvers are used at matches to fill lineup holes or to get an advantageous matchup with an opponent.

Reynolds needs to take advantage and get bonus points from some Blue Devils that have given up pins: Springer (4), Hernandez (5) Matthews & Fryman (6 each) and Hoovler (10).
Conversely, the Raiders must try not to give up bonus points to a number of very good pinners in the Sharpsville lineup (see roster above).
Alex Rueberger has a career record of 59-23 with 27 pins. He was 3rd in districts and a former sectioin champ. Two of his losses were to state qualifiers (one was a place winner).
Caullin Summers has a career record of 66-19 with 29 pins. He has finished in the top 4 at districts and 5th in the region.
Jonathon Bissell is 37-19 in his career with 26 pins and was 4th at districts.
Josh Divens brings a 57-22 career record with 35 pins and a 5th place at districts. He has pinned a good Brookville wrestler and his lone loss was to AA state champ('21') & runnerup('22)-Grant MacKay of Laurel.
