Caleb Spires Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Who are some of the freshman coming in to high school who could make some noise Is Nick Lee in high school next year, or the year after? He absolutely dominated the preseason open as a middle schooler! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattM Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I heard a lot about Coach Red's son from New Palestine IDK his name though, somebody was saying hes 1 of the top ranked middle schoolers in the nation? It's Chad Red and he has done well at several national events. I would guess he will only get better by having practice partners like Tommy Cash around.

I was hearing the red kid was 2-3 State Championships material, IDK never seen him wrestle, but the people talking about him spoke very highly. I couldn't imagine a wrestler that good, not wrestling varsity as a freshman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackshirtD Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 How many freshmen will be driving to school next year?...As many as this year? There is already a name listed that I hear will be. Oh Well if Blair Acadamy can do it why shouldn't public schools in Indiana do it as well. : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattM Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 As some have said before, will Brock Morgan indeed be coming back in state for High School? He is currently in middle school at Apple Valley, MN. Has done well for himself in the high school events there (MN allows middle school students to compete in their high school events). If he is returning I think his name should be mentioned on this list of top incoming light weights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KarlHungus Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 What r u talking about?? I am guessing he is taking a jab at practice of "redshirting" 8th grade to gain an extra year of physical maturity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does, however, give rise to "whining". : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackshirtD Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Wow I lost a cool point for saying that. It ain't about hate and I'm not going to rant and rave on this..it's been done. Most people know who the kids are that for whatever reason are quite a bit older that were freshmen this year and the same is happening next year. It doesn't matter I'm not going to throw a kid under a bus for what his parents think is an okay reason to hold someone back multiple times..but I don't think it's unreasonable to thumb my nose at it a little because it is ridiculous. I mean like I said it's not a prep school where kids are taking an extra year so they can get into the college they want ie. Blair Academy. So look there are many great freshmen that succeeded this season and it's not fair to speculate who the ones are that are older "freshmen" So long as it's in the IHSAA rules it is ethical right?...At any rate I know there are a ton of good ones in the Region coming up next year. Should be fun to watch them compete...The Torres kid from Portage should do really well next year as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackshirtD Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 it is spelled winning......lpd don't understand why you would get so defensive? I didn't say any of your kids are older..or even imply it...I don't think because my opinion is if a kid is held back a time or two for sport that it makes me a whiner or a hater. I just think that it's too bad that it happens..No need to jump my butt about it. All that I said is that it happens and continues to. I was sitting by a group of folks that were discussing a situation and a couple of them happened to be from a school..I'm not naming names or schools man..Just think the situation sucks..plain and simple.

lpd096 Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 BlackshirtD: Fair enough. You are entitled to your opinion as everyone else. Gaige is an 8th grader right now. It's WHINING. Before you correct someone on their spelling, make sure YOU know how to spell yourself. BTW, the spelling on my post was correct. Per Merriam-Webster: whining-- present participle of whine (Verb) Give or make a long, high-pitched complaining cry or sound. Complain in a feeble or petulant way. Unless you really thought I was saying "WINNING"? If that's the case, no harm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matts Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 If I had a kid, I would make sure he/she was the oldest in his/her class for a number reasons: academics, social skills, athletics or other extra curricular activities, maturity...name it. Honestly, I cannot think one negative reason to starting one's kid late, take a year out to home school, repeat a grade in an advanced class, whatever. It certainly would of benefitied a number of students I had who were immature in 9th grade yet came back for their sophomore years much stronger in all areas of their lives. I am open to opposing thoughts and would love to hear the negatives of starting one's son/daughter a year later than others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No man I was just teasing about the winning part...I guess it's the the Chuck Sheen in me...BTW I'm a big fan of Lowell..have been since Bobby and Marcus days...and KK was the man coaching..so please don't take it that I'm taking a shot at Lowell..nothing but respect sir.

BlackshirtD Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 MattS I agree with you about starting the child...I was the baby of my class so maturity in the class room and on the field was something that I just had to work harder to overcome...My son is and August Birthday so I'm glad when he starts he will be on the older side not the younger...It's all about the reason you hold a kid back I think..and when..but look not every shoe fits everyone. Some kids can handle things better than others. Scottie Sopko is a kid that is young enough still to bew in 8th grade so thats a reason how good he is amazing to me. I am a firm believer of giving your child the best chance to succeed..but I also believe in teaching the right way to do things...thats all.
