Mr Freeze Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Saturday will be the 2nd Hamilton County Tournament. Last year, this is the event that HSE won and put themselves in the group of top teams in the state. Who are the top contenders in this event this coming weekend? Teams to watch? HSE is solid again, but Carmel, Fishers, and Westfield have certainly earned consideration for the title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrecoCoach Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Correction: HSE got 4th last year. 1st - Westfield, 2nd - Carmel, 3rd - Fishers, 4th - HSE, 5th - Noblesville, 6th - Hamilton Heights, 7th/8th - Sheridan/Guerin This year, HSE has to be the favorite. Westfield beat Fishers in a close dual, Fishers beat Noblesville in a close dual, and Fishers beat Carmel by a lot before they had football players back. Should be another great tournament.

Miller News Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 In review of the brackets, It appears that HSE has the inside track on this year's Hamilton County Tourney. It looks like it'll be a dogfight amongst Carmel, Fishers, Noblesville, and Westfield for the 1st-loser position. No matter how the dominos fall, it should definately be fun to watch. Good Luck to All and Go Millers!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timbo Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 HSE is definitely the clear favorite. We could see a few interesting matches in the semis. Last year there were many surprises. My guess: 1) HSE-----very good depth---potential 8 finalists---could place top 4 at 12-13 weights 2) Fishers---could have 6 finalists with sleepers at 112 and 171----look for 10-11 in top 4 3) Westfield-- will be very close to Fishers----amount of 3/4th place finishers will determine who is second/ third 4) Noblesville--good team depth---amount of finalist might keep them out of top 3-----12 capable of top 4 5) carmel---lacking overall team depth as compared to past----will be dangerous come sectional as youngsters gain experience others with strong individuals ready to play spoilers---Hamilton Heights, Guerin, and Sheriden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jchas Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 I think HSE will win at least 7. With a good chance at 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HumphreyWrestling Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Here are my picks... Team - HSE with 8 champs 103 - Chastain HSE 113 - Toss up between Stansberry HSE vs. Belden Westfield 120 - Lile Fishers 126 - Watson HSE 132 - Snyder HSE 138 - Gunning Westfield 145 - Tatom HSE 152 - Bennett HSE (the finals against Specht will be the match of the tournament. rematch from Tuesday, Bennett won in OT 9-7) 160 - Neighbarger HSE (two undefeated state ranked wrestlers clash) 170 - Irick HSE (toughest weight class - top 6 seeds have a combined 5 losses) 182 - Schaeffer Westfield 195 - Sliga Fishers 220 - Snyder Fishers 285 - Janney HSE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HamCoFan1 Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Looks to be all HSE this year, however Fishers should come away with a few champs, and I don't think I'd ever look past the Shamrocks (they may pick up a lot of points in the consolations). My predictions.... 106-Chastain (HSE) pins his way through, Lee (F) 2nd place 113-Agree with Coach Humphrey....Stansberry (HSE) and Belden (W) could be a toss up in the finals 120-Lile (F) appears to be the clear favorite here, Leech (CA) 2nd 126-Watson (HSE) wins, however semifinal of Syverson (F) and Eldred (W) could be a good one 132-Another championship for HSE, Snyder is the class of the field. Looks like Steele (W) could be his opponent in the finals 138-I'll take the winner of Gunning v. Marcuson as the champion, however hope to see a Blackhawk in the finals with Delph (S) 145-Tatom v. Winner of Wormuth/Rooney Semi....what a semifinal match in the bottom half...Tatom champion 152-Bennett (HSE) over Specht (N) in final 160-What a weight class...I'll take Neibarger (HSE) over Krege (CA) 170-Irick (HSE) over Sloderbeck (HH) in the finals 182-Schaeffer (W) over Eidson (S) 195-Sliga (F) wins however the semifinal bottom bracket appears to be a good one, DeLong v. Dixon 220-Noblesville get their first championship of the day. Bond (N) over Snyder (F) 285-Porter (HH) overtime win over Janney (HSE) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ked Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Sliga beat Delong but it was alot more close than score, Im looking forward in seeing that one again, wonder if Sliga will win? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrecoCoach Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Sliga beat Delong but it was alot more close than score, Im looking forward in seeing that one again, wonder if Sliga will win? I've gotta assume you're being sarcastic. A major with Delong's only points being escapes is hardly close. Delong attempted 1 throw - got taken down. He took 1 shot and got the leg but didn't score. Once Sliga got past Delong's blocking, he scored easily. Want proof it wasn't close? 1 of the 5 escapes wasn't from him being let go and the crowd cheered like he had won the match. If not getting pinned makes a match "a lot more close than score" then that should continue to be his strategy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ked Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Sarcastic, hardly. Sliga did do what he does best and took Delong down 6 times in 1-2 period. Delong choose bottom position in 2nd period, Sliga let Delong up 3 times, Delong escaped once. Delong was on top third, crowd went crazy went Sliga attemped to escape twice and was thrown to mat hard. Delong's legs were in, did not see any "blocking". Sliga did do a reversal to make score 14-5. I am not taking away anything from Sliga, but it was a good match, and I do look forward in seeing them wrestle again.

Mr Freeze Posted December 18, 2011 Author Share Posted December 18, 2011 This match was not close. Delong wrestled well and will get better and closer, but is not going to get good enough this season. The good thing for Delong is that he will see him all the way through in the state tournament from the opposite side of the bracket. A lot of finals and semis could be in the future. Delong may need to keep his eye on Dixon from HSE as that was a close match. Those two are a distance away from Sliga. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janney controlled the finals but Stevens definitely wrestled hard. It will be fun to see Janney and Stevens wrestle at Sectionals, Conference, Regionals etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheeSnoopy Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Sliga beat Delong but it was alot more close than score, Im looking forward in seeing that one again, wonder if Sliga will win? are you kidding me it was not close at all, delong put up a good fight but he will not beat sliga, lets be real ked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
au160 Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Ked- If it was a lot closer than the score says can you tell me what points should Delong have scored? Where there any shots he was in deep on or any times where he should have got a turn? From a spectators point of view it looked like Delong could easily been hit with some stalling calls. I don't want to take anything from Delong he did what he needed to do to keep it close, but returning someone to the mat really well doesn't score you any points.... as for the crowd going wild well isn't the home crowd going to cheer against the guy who beat their stud 8 times last year?

timbo Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Congrats to HSE on their County championship. There are---what I consider---5 top 30 teams in this county---to have 8 champs was pretty impressive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
