WarrenCentralWrestlingFan 0 Posted August 17, 2011 WHATS THE BEST MEET OR TOURNAMENT THAT STARTS OFF THE SEASON? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coach Hull 59 Posted August 17, 2011 I'm going to go out on a limb here and say it is, and will be, the newly created John Hurrle Memorial at Arsenal Tech on November 19th. Currently, it is a 16 team invitational with plans to go even bigger and better. This is the first year and there are already a few ranked teams committed. I know of plenty other, more established, tournaments throughout the state but this one is gearing up to be a monster. John Hurrle was such an extraordinary part of Indiana wrestling and having the opportunity to host a tournament in his name, at his school, is definitely a privelage. Tech has such a deep history and many of us remember Freestyle and Greco State being hosted there. What was once a 76 acre campus located downtown Indianapolis is now getting a multi-million dollar face-lift, so this is just the beginning of many good things to come!

MattM 871 Posted August 17, 2011 As a test for the top guys early in the season it is hard to top the Capital City Classic. That event shows who prepared for the new season and who didn't. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not10 0 Posted August 18, 2011 Capital City Classic is one of the toughest beginning tournaments of the year. Every weight class is usually stacked with a lot of diverse wrestlers. Does anyone know where CCC will be hosted this year? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Not10 0 Posted August 18, 2011 Beech Grove It's only hosted by Perry and Beech Grove? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coach Hull 59 Posted August 18, 2011 who is in this tourny?? As it stands we have committments from Northwest, Manual, Bedford North Lawrence, Fort Wayne Carroll, Madison, Muncie South, Greencastle, New Palestine, Clinton Central, and several others. Capitol City definitely has the history, the LC Invite used to be pretty tough until they disbanded, but there is a new tourney in town. There are still maybe 2 or 3 openings still up but these will fill up relatively soon. It is going to be awesome! Give it a year or two and the John Hurrle Memorial will be a premier, if it's not already. (I'm getting ancy for the season!!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
