I see this topic every year and every year I think the same thing...how absurd. To compare an entire conference against one team is ridiculous. Carroll’s program is a decent program because of the time and effort put into by coaches, parents, and mostly the young athletes. I would love to see the Chargers in a conference, but not the SAC. They gain nothing from it. The ability to go wrestle other programs around the state benefits our wrestlers more than facing SAC schools, some of who cant field a full team. Im excited to see what is happening at Blackhawk Middle School and the efforts they are making to improve wrestling in the area. Carroll is far from the Cathedrals, Crown Points, and Mater Dei’s but they are continuing to improve. Im pretty knowledgeable of the program and am comfortable saying Carrolls program is better than some mostly due to the off season wrestling these young men do. Every wrestler has those opportunities. I would like to see more effort into improving the FW semi state and our area than talk if an all all star SAC team can beat Carroll. Carroll has an RTC program all summer, didnt see too many SAC wrestlers up there.

Top four in no particular order: 106: Ruble, OCampo, Brooks, Lewis 113: Boots, Ester, Teusch, Weimer 120: Higgins, Zadylak, Hardcastle, Beasley 126: Johnson, Curtis, Heath, Watts 132: Krider, Mosser, Gimson, Cottingham 138: Gimson, Schoeff, Buchanan, Fletcher 145: Rasler, Macklin, Saylor, Jenkins 152: Hicks, Levitz, Hiestand, Prater 160; Pettigrew, Perry, Parrish, Ruble 170: Fielden, Moore, Gilbreath, Fletcher 182: Winner, Rosman, Leach, Lone 195: Agnew,Lee, Gray, Abbott 220: Wicker, Leffers, Elwood, Graft 285: Leeper, Parsons, Bowman, Muncie

I think Mr. Calhoun from Plymouth might put a damper on this as well.

Unranked Davis of Carroll pinned #6 SS Hemmelgarn of Jay County.

Congrats from The Hicks from Carroll HS...been fun watching Carson over the years!!

No Joe Parrish from Homestead? Isnt Schuller at Central Noble?

Getting a great wrestler

Well lets be honest the greatest state is Hawaii. They got miles of beautiful beaches, Hula girls, and those cool drinks with fruit and umbrellas in em....BUT my son doesnt wrestle in Hawaii so exacto facto Indiana wins by default.

No its not a guess...he called every kid in the state to verify what he or she will be going this year. Of course its a guess...cmon man. These wrestlers are gonna bounce all over the place! Enjoy the magazine for what it is, a great insight into the greatest sport in the greatest state!!

Lets get this started and see what people think!

Ill agree with this other than at 120 Ill take Krider from Carroll (he defeated Aumick 9-1 just a few weeks ago) and Ill take Lawson at 285

I pick Carroll

I pick Carroll

Let me preface this question by saying the rankings look great and pretty spot on in my opinion (which means nothing) but I do have a question.....In state rankings you have Hiestand from Yorktown at 138 and Rutter from Yorktown at 145 but in FWSS you have Hiestand at 152 and Rutter at 138. Just curious which was correct.

Hope someone posts results.....would love to check them out.
