Ticket Round Death Draws

Recommended Posts

Everything considered I think the worst trick of fate for this years ticket round:

 

Merrillville 160: #3 Schurg (CP) v  #5 Sopko (Hobart)

 

Both have wrestled at the field house 2x, both previous state placers (Shurg 2x including finalist last year), state ranked ranked 3rd and 5th, both only have 2 losses on season.

 

Both are seniors that have had stellar high school careers, which for me, is what really separates this ticket round from others.

I would have to agree with you.

 

At New Castle, Chastain vs. McKinney is another brutal matchup.

 

These four wrestlers definitely belong at Bankers Life next weekend.

If my memory serves correct, Schurg lost a tough ticket match two years ago, and Sopko lost to Michael Bates last year in the ticket round when he was up 3-4 points heading into the third period? I have seen both wrestle since they were younger at youth tournaments, etc.  Both classy kids, in my opinion.  It's a shame only one finishes their outstanding careers at Bankers Life. To be honest, their match is the primary reason I'm going to semi-state early and deal with the Merrillville madness.  Good luck to both!
