Jim calhoun Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 We are in the East Chicago semi state which I believe is tough every year. Saying this, I hear people bash and mock Fort Wayne etc. Every semi state has very tough weights and some that may not be as strong but every one of those semi state qualifiers deserve a lot of kudos! Love this time of year hearing all the talk on here. Crazy wrestling mom, Coach Brown and FanForLife71 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NavyGonzo Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 Last year was Ft. Wayne's best showing in recent hisory, as far as Top 4 finishers go, including 4 champs and 3 runner-ups... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evv SS is absolutely loaded. The 126 alone is worth the price of admission. ENJOY and best of luck to your wrestler as well.

Can't wait bud... not being corny but this time of the year is thr only thing that makes me feel like a kid the night before Christmas...Can't hardly sleep.. my nerves and excitment are through the roof..I get more nervous watching kids that I've helped than when I fought or wrestled in front of huge crowds. Myself. .Just knowing all the hard work and sacrifice will either make my wrestlers dream come true or im gonna watch the agony of defeat and it gets me fired up...I know that emptiness of losing in the ticket round and to this day it still haunts me...It's honestly why I fought so many mma fights because I was trying to feel that void of of wrestling and get over my ticket round blues lol bwoodjc89 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
