ontherise219 Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 How about the sophomore Bobby Steveson. He went through 3 tough seniors Saturday all raked in the top 5 at 170. Lefever and Steveson was a great match other then that i thought Bobby dominated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beachbum21 Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Here are 2 young men that IMPRESSED me: 170 lb - Jake Reed, Muncie Southside, finished 4th at SS, got a good draw and made it count with (2) first period falls on Friday night and Saturday morning, went on and finished 4th at STATE, unranked coming in. Came in under the radar, left on the BIG SCREEN. GREAT JOB JAKE. 285 lb - Joe Garland, Rushville, finished 4 at SS, wrestled under the lights to finish 2nd in State. Came in ranked #18 in State, left #2. Very impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
only davit Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Nick Crume gave up 3 points all weekend (one was a full nelson). I would say that is impressive. Especially in the 126 pound weight class to be able to ride that well and not let people come out from underneath. Coach Red's shades were impressive as well. Impressive you ask? Did you see anybody else there that could pull those off...me either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCKAJC Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Well obviously it's not your mouth... Did you say "It will be a tech fall or a pin"? LOL... I did say that based on the previous two blow outs. Davis had an outstanding tournament... I had him getting to the final against Micic. But this might be the first time I've heard a wrestler refered to as "the most impressive" in a losing effort. I'm sure the next match between the two will be much anticipated.....

NowAFan2010 Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 The most impressive wrestler this year to me was Cody Handley the kid wrestled with a broken hand for most the year then tears his MCL with 35 seconds in the finals at semi-state holds on to win it 9-6(i believe) then instead of sitting out this past weekend and possibly blowing his knee out goes out wrestles his heart out and left it all on the mat with a 6th place finish(amazing seeing how many kids "faked" injuries to get in state or move on in the tournament) really wish he would have walked in at 100% differently think he could have wrestled under the lights........Great kid and wish him the best with his future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coachpain Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Lots of impressive feats at state, I'm biased but my two cents goes for Kalob Salkill of South Spencer. Came in a relative unknown with a good record, ranked 19th in the state at 195 without the coaches sending in any information on him and finished 4th. Outstanding match in quarter finals Saturday morning picking up the fall over Ricks in 2nd period. First place winner for South Spencer, which has only fielded wrestling since 1992.

terryopinionated Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 I think it was pretty impressive that molloy rolled his ankle in the quarters and was still able to win it. Also I think the most impressive wrestler was Sliga, what a monster. Also took out a very tough Matthew Mastison from Evansville Harrison on Friday night. A great weekend for Mr Davis!

SWINfan Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 I hate to be the grammar police, but this has been driving me nuts, especially in this thread. Wrestler A dominated Wrestler B Wrestler A put on a dominant performance Saying wrestler A is/was dominate is incorrect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the situation Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 deondre wilson. obviously not as good as sliga or lecount in terms of dominance, but only has wrestled 3 years? thats nuts! i'll be the first to admit i thought hughes would beat him. but wilson brought back shades of ol brandon wright Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdrodd1 Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 I can't say that he was the most impressive at State but Norman Oglesby from Ben Davis had a great tournament this year. For you folks that didn't stick around he lost 3-1 in a match with Garland on Friday night that seemed to take half an hour to complete. Congrats to you Joe Garland for a great performance as well this weekend. The cat is out of the bag though now. After seeing this young kid Oglesby go through regionals and semi state, I can't wait to see what he will do for the next two years. Good luck in the near future Norman.

Not10 Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Dont know whether it would be called most impressive, but what about Mitch Sliga's teammate Seth Riley..Was not even ranked all year and had Massongale on his back and winning before he was stuck also winning his match for 3rd before getting stuck, anyway what a run and finishing 4th. he had a great tourney. But can't hold a lead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your boy did great but let's get real that was some of the worse reffing I have ever seen! How many times was salk pinned and the ref didn't call it? And where is his shot defence or a shot period? Let's talk about sliga at 195# if anyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many times was salk pinned and the ref didn't call it? And where is his shot defence or a shot period? Let's talk about sliga at 195# if anyone! Said MY two cents...Everyone in the state knew Sliga was winning 195...very impressive performance in the finals, kid is a beast! Now, you can have a bad attitude if you want, but there were 2 refs that didn't think Salkill was pinned. As far as that goes, where was Rick's throw defence? Was a great back and forth match between 2 outstanding wrestlers, but it went the way it went. We've never wrestled against Benton Central before that, but I honestly would like to congratulate you and your wrestlers for a great season and finishing on the podium, and bect of luck in the future.

fanatic46041 Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Out of non-champions, i would say Hugo Perez.....started season as a 14 seed in the NC semi state.....only losses to Lecount/Martsloff/lykins.......takes out Hartman/Moss/Denton/Snyder/lile.....not bad for a kid that started late 8th grade and has done "0" summer wrestling.....just think if he had....he def turned heads this week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCKAJC Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Mark Maldonado 160# of Highland finished the season ranked 10th but spent most of the ranked below #15 and put together a great tournament lost 5-4 to McClurg in the semis and ended up finishing 4th.
