Experience counts when you reach the CIF state wrestling championships.
Just waiting in a small room with 20 other wrestlers moments before taking to the mats can be nerve racking.
Palma's Zach Jimenez has been down this road, having competed last year.
Accept Jimenez is again in unchartered waters, since he jumped a few weight classes this year after putting on nearly 30 pounds in the off-season.
Still I like Jimenez's chanced of at least getting to the second day of competition at 191 pounds.
A top-six finish by any of the six wrestlers from Monterey County that qualified would be a bonus.

In PrepNation, John has even more in-depth analysis of the latest results and news he's brought to you in The Herald and in his weekly videos.
