Coach Peck Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 The deadline for registration for the IHSWCA Middle School State is tomorrow evening (Thursday 2/12). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sslaymon Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 I was looking this up on trackwrestling and it shows the deadline as 2/14/15. You might want to update trackwreslting so it coincides with what your saying here on the board, as some not on here, won't get that info and wait til Friday or Saturday to sign up with the deadline shown. If they wait, they won't sign up in time and could hurt your #'s some. 2015 IHSWCA Middle School State 02/14/2015 08:00 p.m. C.S.T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DLane Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 (edited) rules dont state you can't. i know you can only wrestle at MS 3x and can not reg as an 8th grader twice. exmaple for 3x: wrestled as 6th grader wrestled as 7th grader wrestled as 8th grader exmaple for 8th grader twice: didnt want to wrestle as 6th grader, so skipped or missed tournament wrestled as 7th grader wrestled as 8th grader can't come back the next year and wrestle as 8th grader again Edited February 12, 2015 by DLane TeamGarcia 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC3390 Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Anyone know why they extended the regestration deadline from 2/12 @ 11:00 CST to 2/14 @ 8:00 CST? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DLane Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 I emailed them and they said 2/12 @ 11 CST is correct. The 2/14/15 was an error Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC3390 Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 That may be so but it is 5:20 EST on 2/13 & registration is still open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sslaymon Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 (edited) I checked it today too and realized it is still open and the registration count is still growing. I don't think I've seen a bracket break the 64 man mark here, but if registration stays open until Saturday, the 105-125 brackets could get up there. Should make for a fun day of wrestling though.

Dolbydude Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 When do you think we will begin doing a middle school series that spans over 2-3 weeks? Break things down to regionals, semi state then a final state tournament? This would be good prep for soon to be high school wrestlers rather than one long day, one shot brackets.

Never All the areas in the state have different times for their middle school seasons, that would be a disaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sslaymon Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Never All the areas in the state have different times for their middle school seasons, that would be a disaster. Yea, the school seasons vary quite a bit and trying to get many to sign up for one and then to continue from a section to regionals would be pretty difficult for those that would have to travel a great distance. I think this tournament is pretty good preparation for the next level. After the first few rounds when the lesser competition is weeded out, the strong contenders really make it a difficult day. Once you get to placing, they have a pretty good chance of doing well in high school level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevieWonder Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Can a 16 year old 8th grader REALLY wrestle at Middle School State? Wow.I was curious about that as well, but after looking through quite a few resources, there is nothing preventing a 16 year old 8th grader from competing at the Middle School level. Once in High School you should expect a 14 year old Freshman to possibly wrestle an 18-19 year old Senior, but in Middle School it is quite possible for an 11 year old 6th grader to wrestle a kid who could have driven to the meet.

Mattyb Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 (edited) If a wrestler turns 15 prior to sept 1st 2014 they are not allowed to attend middle school duals in danville. Been around for awhile. I don't think that there is a 16 year old wrestler entered. Edited February 13, 2015 by Mattyb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dafar Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 My question is how would he be academically eligible? I would assume there would have been academic issues that would create this type of situation. 16 in middle school would also be pushing the max age of 20 for IHSAA sports.

WaltHarris Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Travel ban in much of northern Indiana. Wonder how that will impact ms state. It's a mess up here. Total whiteout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WaltHarris Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 With much of northern Indiana under a travel ban and parts of 80-90, 31 and 69 closed by state police, is there any discussion about moving ms state start time later? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
