  1. That is because Elmo and Cookie Monster Adult pajamas are known to deflect any type of virus known to man. I am pretty sure this info is in the people of walmart.com handbook!
  2. While I don't personally speak for Evan, I can say without hesitation that his decision to change weight classes was an unselfish one in order to effectively give an opportunity for Friday Night glory to a fellow teammate. Evan has never ran away from tough competition. From the time Evan was little, his father was constantly seeking tougher tournaments in order to challenge his son. Evan wanted a chance to wrestle Silas, and in fact knew that moving to 220 would appear as a sign of weakness. I'm sure the decision weighed heavy on his mind, because deep down he knew how this might possibly be viewed. However, he did what he felt was best for his teammate and regardless of how anyone else sees it, those of us who have watched him grow in this sport know that his sacrifice for his teammate is more important to him than anyone's opinions on a chat board.
  3. So I was bored at work and did some research on the 2017 138 bracket (maybe with some motivation, I'll research the rest of the brackets). Here is what I found: 2017 Northern Qualifier (29 participants) - Of the 12 who qualified, 9 came to the Championship in same weight class Southern Qualifier (12 participants) - All automatically qualified, 5 participated in same weight class 2018 Northern Qualifier had 15 participants. 2018 Southern Qualifier had 10 Participants. Indy Nationals had 22 participants this year (I might be off 1-2 wrestlers). Some also wrestled in both the Qualifier and Nationals. Comparing participation data, it appears overall there were more wrestlers in 2018 vs 2017 (Which you would expect as this event gains traction). So how did 2017 participants fair in placement and what was their original seeding: Top 8 2017 Frosh/Soph - 138lb - 24 Participants 1. SSQ - 138 - Sophmore 2. SSQ - 138 - Sophmore 3. 5th Northern Qualifier- Sophmore 4. SSQ - 132 - Sophmore 5. DNP Northern Qualifier - Freshman 6. SSQ - 132 - Sophmore 7. SSQ - 138 - Sophmore 8. 5th Southern Qualifier - Sophmore So 5 out of the Top 8 were Semi-State Qualifiers (not a big surprise here). Of the 24 participants, 19 Participated in the 138 lb class for either SS or their qualifier. 5 Participants came from 132 lb weight classes for the Frosh/Soph Championship. 3 of which were SSQ, 1 got first in the qualifier and the other got 4th. Last bit of information: There were 19 Freshman/Sophmore's in 2017 who made Semi-State, of those only 8 went on to wrestle in the Frosh/Sophmore Championship (3 placed at IHSAA State and were not eligible). Two wrestled in the 145lb class. So in total 10/19 wrestled in the Frosh/Soph Championship who qualified via Semi-State.
  4. From looking at the event flyer, they get 4 pounds Saturday morning (shoes and singlet) and an additional 2 pounds on weigh outs Saturday night, with optional weigh-ins Sunday morning (Top 12 in each weight class move onto Sunday).
  5. Chesterton's V2 team basically wrestled in four tournaments 1. Charles Marks - Individual Dual 2. Kennerk Invitational - Team Dual 1-3 12/09/2017 Angola, IN 60.00 Chesterton, IN 12.00 Varsity 12/09/2017 Fort Wayne Bishop Luers, IN 48.00 Chesterton, IN 30.00 Varsity 12/09/2017 Fort Wayne South Side, IN 51.00 Chesterton, IN 28.00 Varsity 12/09/2017 Chesterton, IN 36.00 Whitko, IN 23.00 Varsity 3. Maconaquah Invitational - Individual Dual 4. Renssalear Central Duals - Team Dual 5-0 01/20/2018 Chesterton, IN 40.00 Boone Grove, IN 39.00 Varsity 01/20/2018 Chesterton, IN 54.00 Crown Point, IN 12.00 Varsity 01/20/2018 Chesterton, IN 39.00 Lafayette Central Catholic, IN 34.00 Varsity 01/20/2018 Chesterton, IN 51.00 Rensselaer Central, IN 30.00 Varsity 01/20/2018 Chesterton, IN 45.00 Twin Lakes, IN 36.00 So 6-3 overall in Duals.
