I'm ready for some wrestling!!!! Good luck to all of the semi-state bound wrestlers ~ here's hoping Evansville's 2012 semi-state is one we'll never forget!!!

[markio]

I forgot to tell you this....I got the hosts to do something special when it comes to the updated brackets that used to get printed out and posted on the wall, something that no other semi state could pull off. Let's just say that the Ford Center has about 175 flatscreen TVs located all over the arena.

[formercat80]

Fantastic idea with the flat screens!! I want to wish all the wrestlers good luck and may the best wrestler win.

[navy80]

anyone going to updates results today??

[markio]

How were the pork nachos? And is everyone diggin' the updated brackets on the TVs?

[BlueBolt]

Is this the same Blue Nut that predicted a lot more Castle Sectional wrestlers to get out?? Get a clue. Look at the bracket closely??? When I look I see a 2X State Qualifier in Hoehn and nothing from Judy but just a drill partner in the wrestling room.
[/quotete]Oh please don't get him going again.Don't you all know that his 50% prediction ratio is never wrong.

And just who now has their ticket punched?  No disrespect to Hoehn.   Tough tough kid with a fantastic career!
