Mat Burns "Pick-The-Champions" contest WINNER!!!
« on: February 19, 2012, 05:38:53 PM »
Congratulations to  JEREMIAH  MAGGART of West Lafayette -and former Penn Wrestler- on WINNING the 2012 Pick-The-Champions Contest.   Jeremiah was the ONLY person to have  12  Champions Correct of the 80 Entries.   He will have  2  tickets to the 2013 State Meet waiting on him next February.  Congratulations Jeremiah.
There were  2  Runners-up.  Earl Fleener of Indianapolis  and  Mat Burns editor Richard Jay  both had  11  correct Chanps.

And Yes, I agree with some of the e-mails.  There will be Paper Entries next year AT the State Finals.   BUT, more people will have to have entries turned in at the State Finals.  We will still take the entries on line , but we'll have the entries at the Fieldhouse in 2013.

Thanks to all of you who entered.  We hope to see you next year!
See you on the Mat!
Richard Jay, editor
any questions, e-mail me at  matburnswn@sbcglobal.net

ps. - Mat Burns will try to have its BOOKLET  on-Line somewhere before next season.  Families, Careers Records, Pins .  Alot there.

With several upsets in the quarters and semi-finals picking 12 champions is a nice accomplishment.  I would assume many entires didn't even have 12 of their champions picks make the finals.  Nice picking.

no kidding.  To get 12 right you really had to pick some major upsets.

To quote Rodney Dangerfield "I get no respect!"

I had 11 correct and emailed in!

Congrats on 12, tough year to do that.
