Freshman Ian Heath from Leo. Will claim some hardware next year.

LOL *begins the slow clap* well done.

Really nice foresight by the Peru coaches on this. They seen the chance for a defensive fall as soon as he pulled him on top of himself and got the ref into place. "Quick" call or not he was flat and is at the ref's mercy at that point

I'm taking Sawyer Miller.

+1

I was having the conversation of great matches and I believe it was last years match with Brandon Campbell (New Castle) and I Paul Petrov (Hanover). Will forever be one of the best matches I've ever seen.

My odds of getting punched in the face would drastically increase.. :-X

106-Lee 113-Micic 120-Phillips 126-Crume 132-LeCount 138-Carroll 145-Malloy 152-Bradley 160-Kriech 170-LeFever 182-Hurford 195-Sliga 220-Robinson 285-Bernard

Both good classes, i'm going with 126.Welch, Crume and Fuqua and others will make it a very exciting weight class..

What about the 2 weeks before semi-state??

just watched the replay, and there is no doubt in my mind that it should have been stopped for potentially dangerous..

Takes me back to state 2 years ago and Jimmy West from South Adams was DQ'd on saturday morning after a very petty call by an official and the kid he was wrestling pleaded to the ref to not let the match end that way..and to no avail, Jimmy was disqualified in what truly has to be one of officiating's worst moments..

Observation from today's wrestling at Ft Wayne. I've always felt this is a well ran and finished at a decent time. This year was, like always ran extremely well (Snider High School). But the last matched finished around 8:20.. Now this was only wrestling back through 5/6. The chance of having a full wrestle back to for true 3rd and 4th is inevitable in one day of wrestling..Makes me feel like we are further away from this ever happening. How did other semi states do on time and some thoughts about the wrestle backs..

I will say this without hesitation, I do believe (obviously with a different draw) That Heistand, Malcolm and Luginbill were the TOP 3 in that weight class today..

So let me ask this, was this something that could have been avoided if the official stops the match for potentially dangerous? Avoid both injury and controversy?
