Team State Qualifying


WadeDuPont

Recommended Posts

The IHSWCA should create a survey through survey monkey, then send the link to all head coaches. The results should be published for review by all coaches, then decisions can be made based on the said results. What are some of the questions that should be asked in regards to team state? I'll start.

1. Why do we include teams with less than 7 wrestlers that have no chance of winning a dual?

Here are the teams with 3-6 wrestlers on their sectional roster and their placement in the team state standings. I doubt they care because there is no way they can make it into the event.

Northeastern 1A 67
Providence 1A 70
Indianapolis Lutheran 1A 76
Cowan 1A 78
Wood Memorial 1A 88
Providence Cristo Rey 1A 89
New Washington 1A 90
Forest Park 1A 92
Covington 1A 93
Bremen 1A 94
Randolph Southern 1A 97
Pioneer 1A 98
Wapahani 1A 99
Taylor 1A 100
Tri-County 1A 101
     
Hammond 2A 71
Salem 2A 89
Western Boone 2A 90
Knox 2A 93
Eastbrook 2A 94
Indianapolis Emmerich Manual 2A 95
Blackford 2A 96
Brebeuf Jesuit Preparatory 2A 98
Gary West Side 2A 99
Mishawaka Marian 2A 100

Teams that have 6 or less wrestlers don't care about being included. I would guess they don't even look at the scores because they can't qualify.

When we have our first team with only 6 wrestlers and they all win state maybe we can include them in the discussion.

As a team that only had 6 this year at sectional, you guess wrong.  I use it to motivate the kids I have and as a marketing tool to continue to get more.  Exclusion or the perception of exclusion will only hurt small schools trying to build up.

Couldn’t you say the same for the teams in the bottom let’s say 50 (it’s probably closer to teams not in the top 30)?  They really don’t stand a chance of making it, why count them?  I’m sure they don’t care about their score.

They have a chance based on the number of entries. Anyone with less than 7 entries cannot get into the event even with all state champions returning with MAX points.

All I can say I’d look at Randall’s post. You might feel he is wasting his time, I don’t. I don’t think exclusion of any team is good for the growth of our sport. Again I think if we feel that the classes need changed going with a cap on number of kids per school to determine the class is a more efficient, and inclusive way to determine the classes.

That's a good point.    Less than 12% of teams are going to  make the  team state tournament.   So whats the difference if you have 3 wrestlers or if you have 14, but those14 cant score enough points to get there.    The 3 wrester team  was out the beginning, but 70% of the teams are out after regionals.  And if your'e basing the qualifying score on this years team, its totally irrelevant of how many wrestlers they have next year.

That's great, you can put points with a team. Just take them out of counting for classification. They have NO shot at making the event, you are watering down the tournament with that.

I know how you don't want our tournament watered down, right?

Ohh wait if watering it down gives your team a better shot at being invited it is fine.

Foiled my master plans again!!!!!  Your getting good at making stuff up in your head and throwing it out there.  It’s not possible that I vote the way on this issue because of the reasons I stated earlier, and have stated every time this comes up.  

You guys always ask why people don’t explain themselves on the forum.  It might be because every time we do people make up things in their mind and throw random accusations at you.

True or false

Adding teams that have no legitimate shot of making the event waters downs the classes.
