Re: IHSWCA Information

Date: September 17, 2015

Welcome to the 2015-16 wrestling season.

Well the technology dinosaur (yours truly) is finally trying to become update to this era.

Hopefully this information is posted in enough areas that all Indiana head wrestling coaches receives this information. If not, I apologize up front!

For you convenience, all IHSWCA Forms can be located on the website (www.ihswca.org)

Jake Harreld – former head coach at Fishers HS is gracious enough to continue to manage our website.

While the IHSWCA cannot take your payment electronically “YET”, I’m working on it, You can preregister for the clinic by emailing me at (jsaminch123@sbcglobal.net). Either use the attached form or just state your name & your other coaches name and say “SAME INFO AS LAST YEAR” & then bring payment to the clinic.

This year’s clinic features three individuals with Indiana ties. Angel Escobedo, Reece Humphrey, and Coyte Cooper. Angel (4X State Champ – NCAA Champ) & Reece (3X State Champ – NCAA All-American & World Team member) are both Indiana high school products. Coyte was an NCAA All-American at IU. This should be a great clinic! Please see attached 2015 Fall Clinic Flier.

We will once again offer the IHSAA Rules Interpretation Meeting at the clinic.  It is scheduled for Thursday evening @ 6:30 pm at Warren Central HS our clinic site. So even if you cannot attend the clinic, you can make the rules meeting and then attend the coaches social afterwards at our host hotel the Clarion East – formerly the Ramada Inn.

Tyson Skinner – Madison Consolidated HS will be taking over for the 2015-16 & 2016-17 school years as our President and Greg Ratliff – Edgewood HS was voted in as Vice President along with Sam Riesen - Churubusco HS as Secretary at last Spring Clinic’s business meeting.

While the IHSWCA cannot offer you the USA/ISWA coaches card in our clinic package, the ISWA will be contacting all previous coaches with information that will help you in the process of attaining your card.

I hope to see all of you at the fall clinic.  While there are many clinics being offered this fall in several areas of the state, the IHSWCA is the only clinic exclusively for coaches.  You will receive IHSWCA membership, clinic gifts, lunch, and a social all for a very reasonable cost. Plus this is the only face to face Rules Interpretation clinic offered.

First of all:

My apologies for not posting the Acad. AS teams sooner. As explained earlier, my computer died last week and I was unable to acquire a new one until Thursday. Then I was very preoccupied conducting the IHSAA State Tournament. I did get all the certificates printed with minimal errors. If the certificates were not picked up at the state meet, they will be mailed to coaches TODAY.

Again, please excuse my tardiness.

JD Minch - IHSWCA Ex. Director / IHSAA State Tournament Director / Retired Coach of North Montgomery HS

I have attended the IHSAA State Wrestling Finals every year since 1970.

1970-1973 high school - competed @ HW in 1973

1974-77  while @ Purdue University - I was on Purdue's team - but still made State Finals

1978-2010 while coaching @ North Montgomery HS - didn't always have a competitor, but I was there

2011-present - I have been the tournament director

I think that's 46 years?

1985 - meet was moved to New Castle HS - same year my daughter was born - my 8 month pregnant wife was with me!

My first State finals was 1970 - I was a freshman in high school. Therefore this year makes 44 in a row.

JD Minch

Should be up later today or tomorrow.

You will submit your wrestler's resume upon entering Bankers Life where you check in to obtain your credentials.

The Ancient Elder has officially retired. If any new version of the history of Indiana HS wrestling is to be written, it will be a new author.

Hey this is JD.  I'm so glad all my friends were concerned about me. I received many phone calls that Ihad been hacked. It took a week but now my email is back and running again.

If I had been mugged, just know that I would have gotten my fair share of good painful hits in before being taken down! Arrrrrr!

Jan & Sue Hesser will also be representing Indiana at the Olympics. Jan will be a timer/scorer and Sue will be a pairer.

Who are the officials?
