joma132 Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 What happened? two forfeits in the first round? Miss weight or not even make it to the venue? Hudkins and Haynes..... ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y2CJ41 Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 Hudkins made weight then was takenoto the hospital after due to illness. The other was a kid not wrestling and the alternate was too much over weight to wrestle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PreparetoWin Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 And something we found out that at semi and state their is only one alternate excepted. Regardless, if the 2nd alternate or 3rd alternate is ready and can make weight. The winter bulletin and the IHSAA think it is a better idea for a FF to be in place than a kid getting a chance to wrestle at state. Just an awful rule and not very well thought out...I know not many coaches I talked to did not know about the guidelines in the bulletin. But it does state that Sectionals to Regionals is the only place a 2nd alternate comes into play. Regional to semi state and semi state to state is only one kid has a chance to be alternate...after that it goes to FF. So unless you are 1st alternate you are done.

Wrestler760 Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 For the record Haynes was only over 9 ounces over... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Y2CJ41 Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 So if he was 9 ounces over then he was just over half a pound away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TripleB Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Madison was third alternate. We were contacted by the first alternate to be ready b/c they weren't sure if their wrestler could make weight. We had our guy there and on weight. He was denied that opportunity due to the language in the winter bulletin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littlevito Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Why were the 2,3,4 seeds not moved up in seeding order? I was wondering the same thing. At all the other levels the seeds are moved up. So instead, we end up with a state alternate getting a forfeit instead of a semi-state champ.

maligned Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 It must be that once weigh-in is complete, they don't move the seeds. Otherwise: -- Schermer would have moved up to the top of the bracket and probably would have met Glogouski in the quarters. --Lahue would have moved to Schermer's spot and most likely seen Knapp in the quarters with a shot at not seeing Red till the semi's (and arguably would have had an easier first round match and maybe not have gotten hurt). --Johnson would have moved to LaHue's spot against Rodriguez and Sinko ends up with an alternate opponent and we all miss out on perhaps the most exciting final 30 seconds of a match in the tournament (Johnson over Sinko). Anyway, a lot of "what-ifs" had Hudkins not made weight or not weighed in at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
