189 Morgan McIntosh vs Preston Quam - CIF State Championships 2011

Morgan McIntosh (Calvary Chapel HS) vs Preston Quam (San Clemente HS) - CIF State Wrestling Championships

[@eaganbt]

quam took 2nd at states in his second year of wrestling, that is beyond impressive

[@TheDoggzNuttz]

McIntosh is a beast! lol my name is also Morgan McIntosh and I've gotten messages from recruiters mistaking us lol

[@MsCrys151]

Damn, that word doesn't even begin to cover how amazing this guy is. He's a total beast! and like bbers12 said, it was an honor to watch McIntosh's last high school match. And this guy's incredible

[@guitarjordan32]

Proud to say i got my ass beat by this guy haha

[@andu1854]

I wrestled the top SacJaq 189 lb champ my Sr year and he grabbed a hold of me second round and I couldn’t move my arm and I knew I was getting pinned, nice guy though

[@guitarjordan32]

​@@andu1854 Yeah, my senior year i had to wrestle mcintosh at the state finals. sadly i played football that year and my hydration said i had to wrestle 191s. lol i was 175 fully clothed my senior year lost to him 16-5 or something too much weight advantage to even compete haha.

[@JB-zo7ln]

Wow thats unbelievable what he did in his career. Not one point was scored against him in 2 straight seasons??? Thats ridiculous. I dont care if none of his opponents were on his level or not. In the state tournament alone that is amazing considering the caliber of wrestler that makes it to the state tournament. He didnt get caught slippin or napping one single time by any of those kids. Damn Im thoroughly impressed. I enjoyed seeing his career at psu. I thought maybe he would have been more invincible at 184, but it doesnt really matter because he was every bit invincible at 197. Only loss was to J'den Cox at ncaa finals his last year. Ranked 1st most of the year at 197. Awesome athlete. Slick and smooth. Probably even got laid a couple times. Penn state has a very decent whore population.

[@andu1854]

What a muscular top athlete is going to attract the ladies?!?!? Color me (not) shocked

[@coolwhipp24]

i went to high school with morgan, he is one of the nicest person I have ever met, it was great to see him have major success in his high school career.

[@jayfountains1133]

crazy thing is that match was in slow motion. match only was really only 57 seconds. 😂😂😂

[@fredarroyo7429]

I remember cutting weight for day two of this tournament, chopping it up with Preston Quam in the Sauna at 24 hours in Bakersfield .

[@bbers12]

Loved that match. It was a honor to watch McIntosh's last high school match. It looked more like a drill match to me.

[@Alex-xi3bw]

2:22 "He has allowed not one offensive point against him this year or last" less than 10 seconds later he comes the closest he's ever gotten in the last 2 years to being taken down lol

[@Herman2729]

last high school wrestling match, pretty amazing.

[@sneakaholic011]

McIntosh is a beast but it's a shame that some people will watch this video thinking Quam is a slouch. Quam is a GREAT wrestler but Morgan is just on another level...

[@emurl1700]

the duck under at 0:22 is beautiful

[@MsCrys151]

And Quam earned a lot of respect(: he just didn't quit and kept on going when most guys would've given up seeing how badly they were losing and how tough their opponent was.

[@rynoesco2]

I can't wait to see Morgan wrestle in college. I hope he can represent California well. California HS Pre-season Rankings up now at calgrappler

[@andu1854]

I did some looking at previous brackets and Quam placed at state as a first year wrestler, that is amazing, I don’t care if his weight class had wrestlers going to different weight classes to avoid Morgan...

[@lou4brew]

I feel sorry for Quam, it's bad enough running into this Juggernaut in the state finals, but considering they only live 15-20 minutes apart he's had to face him numerous times over the years.

[@Ownage1067]

Yeah i checked his background, to see and then I seen that and I was like "Oh, that explains alot."

[@rockos414]

Morgan makes it look too easy. The sky is the limit for this kid.

[@oeldasher]

i dont understand how someone like quam could make it that far in states and wrestle like that. "hey heres my legs, take me down"

[@KungPaoChikn]

its called a snap down and spin behind, thats what my wrestling coach taught me

[@scwrestler21792]

@omisunra i train qith preston, he didnt quit, he got a little tired, hes never had to wreslte someone like that before

[@geordys1]

2:59 was a sick ass move that no one noticed...

[@BeeGreeen]

not to mention, he was the #3 seed!

[@scwrestler21792]

@JTJUE101 yes he started as a junior, it was funny because when he waslked into our room he looked like a goof, and then he threw our heavy across the room. so began his era

[@alfeovictor]

@rman589 actually he started wrestling when he was a freshman

[@moctezuma._]

@bbers12 It's not his last. He still went onto Nationals

[@bignslipery123]

@2dustinjayguest they were 17, now 18

[@BarneysanchezDH]

Quam is still realllyyyy tough.

[@Texaswrestlergamer]

how did he get 2nd in his 2nd year of wrestling? was the weight class weak due to everyone running from morgan

[@MrM1729]

Was a highly skilled judoka, though you wouldn't guess that watching this match.

[@andu1854]

I wouldn’t base how good or bad Quam was from this match only, Morgan destroyed everyone that year and wasn’t challenged & I don’t think anyone would have had much of a chance (maybe a closer score, but Morgan only gave up points to take you back down... Casey Strand his senior did the same thing to his opponents and wasn’t taken down at all & only gave up escapes because he didn’t want to pin his opponent

[@hazardroll1]

@The1Sherwin He didnt even attempt to spraw, yeah he wrestled his heart out alright

[@rogedesmadre]

Preston just looks tired and like hes not even trying at all.

[@geordys1]

No it was the way he executed it. Most people wouldnt have even thought to duck the arm they wouldve just tried to power through but he through it over and just got behind it was sick as fuck.

[@edwardbarraza4848]

Dam that guy didnt want none of that lol

[@Aradffomisabjr]

wow...it seem like Morgan is wrestling against freshmen from f/s team. The weird part is that it is brutal ca state final. I know that Quam is really good and he try to takedown him but almost did it twice. Morgan is just too good.

[@300Nightfire300]

yah but he was a judo phenom

[@quamrh]

well, we now have the mcintosh game plan. reach up with your right and it's a high crotch, reach up with the left and it's a single. hmmm, i suppose we could work on hand fighting and level changes.

[@Sam10830]

@wilokeefe yeaaa, i know that. i was just kidding ..

[@Kadotas]

mcintosh look like a extemly buff 200 pounder

[@JoshY01]

@CruzklokControl lol or not

[@GaryLeeProduction]

no offensive point against him? so your telling me he hasn't been taken down in 2 years??? WTF

[@schapadap]

@CruzklokControl thats ironic, it seems like everyone "would've" beat morgan mcintosh

[@bluedayblink182]

how the hell was this kid in the finals

[@bigbirdgrappler60]

@oeldasher it's californa mcintosh is one of those guys whose good no matter what state you put him in dosn't mean the rest of the competition is up to snuff

[@andu1854]

I think a wrestler is good if he makes state, really good if he places and awesome if he makes final and win... Morgan didn’t lose form SOPH year to Sr year... also the kid he wrestled was a great story of a 2nd year wrestler (who did have a judo background, so I am not shocked he picked up sport quickly)...

[@andu1854]

Penn St thought so and they recruited him...

[@thebeastisback1996]

He doesn't go to mma because he can make history at the college level. He won't give that up so he can make a quick buck in the mma.

[@2dustinjayguest]

how old are these guys

[@andu1854]

18

[@TheWarrior816]

this is just a sad match, McIntosh just out classed Quam. At least he made it to state finals though.

[@sams9732]

Biggest cheer are to the underdog coming in close to a takedown! SAD! Really… every wrestler has a pinning change just like boxing has that one lucky KO punch

[@schapadap]

@TheCowGoesRoar theres an enormous gap between morgan and anyone

[@Xxxx-qt7uy]

Quam is twice his size

[@Mrthebigshoes]

I WANT MCINTOSH 1V1 FIRST TIME EVER A REAL CHALLENGE

[@sk8erboy618]

morgan almost stuck himself trying to be to much of the aggressor near the end

[@bolingification]

I was there watching a few kids i work out with and i saw this kid and was just like are you kidding me that kid is crazy

[@bdog548]

2:51 got a little sketchy

[@scwrestler21792]

@CruzklokControl nah, he still wouldnt have. hes my friend and as much as i would like to say he could have, mcintosh had him beat in every math they wrestled. now greco, thats a different matter

[@ummmj]

@blakkid2kool he'll most likely peak again when he starts drilling at that level and he will take the 84 spot

[@xjethroyo]

morgan wants to be a veternarian... Lol

[@swimhurl]

Why does the crowd act like Quam does anything at 2:40?

[@xxhouse]

I think they were just rooting for the underdog at that point, since he was getting schooled

[@murffly]

I was a senior in high school in 2011, it was because that was the closest anyone came to scoring an offensive point against McIntosh the entire year.

[@oliverelizalde]

Not to mention quam was extremely accomplished in Judo as he took gold at the JR level so I guess people thought he was in an advantageous position when he had Morgan i that shoulder lock. also yes Morgan didn't get taken down all year and that was the closest anybody got scoring on Morgan that year.

[@murunbatjargal3342]

@@oliverelizalde Seriously? because the technique he just showed is trash even a freshman could probably do that throw correctly.

[@andu1854]

Morgan hadn’t given up a single point (he only gave up escapes to take his opponent back down) and it was most likely his closest point he came to breaking his scoreless streak... I had same reaction many years ago as the outstanding wrestler of the year almost allowed a take down and then he nope it and won NCS

[@TheCowGoesRoar]

rank 1... and rank 3...... that must be an enormous gap in the ranking...

[@g3raish]

This guy used every take down there is in to do

[@LexingtonPlummer]

He tech fall'd the guy? Imagine how great he'd be in MMA, or even UFC. Is there anyone doubting him that he won't win NCAA titles all of his college years at Penn State?

[@Silent8x]

8 years later and you were dead wrong Morgan didn’t win one NCAA title lol

[@MrAlk512]

Quam didn't get this far if he sucked. He was just clearly outclassed by his opponent. Cael Sanderson did the same thing to plenty of his opponents.

[@andu1854]

Casey Strand did that to the 189 class his Sr year, he dominated the kid who took 5th at state (super nice and I cheered when he almost took Casey down and then nope)

[@SkooterGetsOff]

No disrespect to Quam he is a hell of a wrestler but that looked like a drill match.

[@slyklei]

no

[@ramonrodriguez5164]

He just destroyed him.

[@cameraman1092]

can u say takedown clinic

[@quamrh]

wow, the best wrestler in the nation beat the best judo player....in a wrestling match. oh, and q

[@Tauschy268]

mcintosh vs. daube rematch

[@joemacfilms]

Whats up with this no chain wrestling here???

[@andu1854]

Morgan appears to be in the take down and let him back up and repeat whole match...

[@mansondevil33]

Lol damn that match was just ugly. One perfect takedown after another. NASTY!!!

[@JTJUE101]

both are really good wrestlers how bout that? Mcintosh just a lot better. and i heard it was only Quam's second year wrestling right?

[@andu1854]

He did have a judo background, but yes second year he made the finals and no one was beating Morgan that year

[@DeiTy4GuiTar]

@JDchase07 How the fuck are you supposed to sprawl those beautiful setups. You obviously havent wrestled any notable wrestlers.

[@moctezuma._]

Last years match was better

[@sfgiantz51]

why does mcintosh let him up so easily?

[@andu1854]

He hasn’t lost since frosh year and he was at point he was ready to go to Penn St and the next level... not bad for the Dream Team National HS wrestler of the year 2011

[@work4thewicked]

@2dustinjayguest 18

[@H8ted5000]

McIntosh looks so bored when he wrestles lol like there's no real competition for him

[@Sam10830]

@hazardroll1 lmao. whos? Quam? i dont actually have his balls in my mouth , i just dont like the fact that your dissing a guy who worked his ass off. still, he didnt do the best in the match ( right about that shitty technique ) but everyone has bad matches.

[@hazardroll1]

@wilokeefe I know Morgans good. I said he was. But this match is a joke. This is pathetic to think that Quam was the second best wrestler there. The only thing bad in this vid is Quam. Morgans good for sure. Quam is not

[@hazardroll1]

Does Quam know how to spraw? Morgans good, but this is a joke.

[@TheTaylorTutt]

chill out, it was only a joke. Relax, I'm a GA state placer, i know what wrestling is about. I'm not happy I lost to him.

[@1232frosty]

hes so bad
