Antares1 Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 there are a lot of great teams and individuals at this tournament. our team doesnt go but i wish they would after seeing the level of competition. i suppose mater dei is still the favorite to win this year. i would think that franklin community could be a close contender along with avon. top 5 picks mater dei franklin community avon memorial floyd central i think mater dei will place enough to win but it will be close. they always seem to pick up bonus points in these types of tournaments.

chambers Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 TRINITY KY I think will be in the top 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antares1 Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 i've not seen a lot out of them this year so its hard to say. i know they have about 3 tough individuals but as a team i think they are weaker this year based on the limited results i have seen. I don't know who they would beat out of the top five i listed though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know who they would beat out of the top five i listed though. Trinity played for a state football championship in KY on Dec. 5th. I would guess that any results you have seen up to last weekend were just for the guys they have that do not play football. How many weightclasses can your team fill without the football players? A quick look at the KY rankings shows that Trinity has several ranked wrestlers including four that are ranked first. 112 1st John Fahy 10 119 1st Myron Bradbury 12 125 11th Brandon Birk 11 130 6th Brent Hitchings 10 135 8th Ausdin Pender 11 152 1st Grant Ohlmann 12 160 8th Erin McCauley 12 171 1st Brad Hitchings 12 189 9th Cooper Bohn 12 215 21st Brendan Darrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antares1 Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 humm. i thought some of those guys graduated last year. in that case, you are probably right about them finishing in the top five. i'll list my top six then:) mater dei franklin community trinity avon memorial floyd central any teams out there besides these six that could contend? i am not that familiar with the ky teams and i know that vincennes lincoln and providence are down from last year. it looks like most of the other teams have a few tough individuals but not a strong line up from top to bottom.

Ugotstuck Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Should be a great tournament. I look for Trinity and Franklin Community to make some noise. Would be nice to see someone knock off Mater Dei at their own tournament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chambers Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 i thought 8th graders couldnt wrestle in indiana meets but he apparently has Why did you think that? IHSAA rules do not prohibit middle school kids from a Kentucky school from wrestling against a Indiana High School wrestler. This is copied and pasted from the IHSAA by-laws: Q. 9-3 May an IHSAA member school participate against a non-member school whose team contains students below grade 9? A. Yes, so long as the non-member school is not eligible for IHSAA membership or has been expelled or suspended from membership in the IHSAA. (Rule 9-15) And if the school is from out of state, the school must be a member in good standing in its state high school athletic associations and the round-trip mileage shall not exceed 600 miles from the Indiana state line. (Rules 9-15, 10-1, 10-1.1) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antares1 Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 thanks for the clarification chambers. i think it is good for the individual if they can wrestle to their level of competition. imagine how much better this kid is getting by wrestling against high schoolers than if he was resigned to compete against middle school students. i guess my question would be, why does indiana prohibit middle schoolers from wrestling with their high school teams. safety?

Antares1 ... i understand what you are saying about weather the schools liability will cover the eigth grader, but I would actually worry about this kid hurting the kids that he is wrestling. Who will be at 103 that will give this kid some competition? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingo Brigade Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Myron Bradbury is a monster. I think he beat Brandon Nelsen last year. He's a nationally elite-caliber wrestler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
