Coach Wadkins Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 (edited) 2015 Chris Traicoff Memorial Wrestling Invitational Pairings @Calumet High School, Gary, Indiana Saturday, December 12, 2015 1st ROUND PAIRINGS Top Bracket #1) Portage vs. Munster #8) Lowell vs. Floyd Central #5) Cathedral vs. South Bend Riley #4) Franklin vs. Hanover Central Bottom Bracket #3) Lawrence North vs. Calumet #6) Valparaiso vs. Westfield #7) Mishawaka vs. Southmont #2) Crown Point vs. Lake Station Factors taken into consideration in pairings were: 1) The most recent IHSWCA & Indiana Mat Team Rankings. 2) Early results from the 2015-16 season, thus far, as reported on Indiana Mat or other available online media outlets. 3) Fairly separating the best teams, so that each team has the best chance of seeking their own level in the placement rounds. 4) Avoiding 1st round rematches from last year, with an effort to keep Conference, Sectional & Regional rivals apart for Round #1. Care has been taken to avoid any Conference, Sectional or Regional match-ups in Round #1. If you would like to check weights/scales on Friday night, contact me at jwadkins@lakeridgeschools.net and I will do my best to accommodate you and your team. Good luck with your meets this week, we'll see you all for a great day of wrestling on the 12th.

Y2CJ41 Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 The teams are still there but boy how this tournament has fallen off. Fallen off? Seriously? Teams like Westfield and South Bend Riley are probably top 30 teams in the state and they aren't even seeded. Then add teams with solid line-ups like Floyd Central, Southmont(1A qualifier), Valpo might end up a top 15 team at the end of the season and they are seeded 6th. backtothemat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
overtime Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 I mean from the days of Mishawaka Franklin Cathedral Crown Point Portage all had dual teams who could win the state championship. Yes while those other teams might be good. I'm talking about how it was as hard to win this tournament as it was the state duals. This used to be an absolute grinder. Now it's just five duals against some top 30 teams and programs who are still good but nothing like their teams of the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Portage and Crown Point(if they went) both are teams that could win team state. Lawrence North, Valpo, and Cathedral are all top 15 teams. Of course everything was better in the early 2000's, the music, the hair, the wrestling... this is still one of the premier events in the state and will continue to be that way. unknown wrestler and Matdad 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ontherise219 Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 4 teams who will be at ihswca team state. CP is usually Invited off of last years results then they added a handful of talented freshman and a Illinois 3rd placer at 152. I would like them to add a strong Ft Wayne semi state school to have all the semi states represented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

overtime Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 I'd hope their a lot of good guys. There are 16 teams. It's a good tournament. Cathedral is no where close to a top 15 dual team. I just watched them this past weekend. This tournament with its round robin style used to be as hard to win as the team state. And no their isn't a team in this tournament that could win team state.

overtime Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 (edited) Its a good tournament. But it's common sense. Mishawaka LN Cathedral Franklin are all way down to what we are used to. Teams that couldn't even make it to the final round robin would show up at the team state back in the day. Teams would place 5th at Calumet then be in the final eight of team state at the end of the year. Also you had Ft Wayne Snider and Griffith who were both tough as nails. That's 8 teams who were powers! Edited December 7, 2015 by overtime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swegwrestler1 Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Cathedral is going to be a lot tougher in the up in coming weeks. Having big Stewart and Guhl in the line up is a huge momentum swinger and then having 3 other guys out of the lineup last week can hurt. With Stewart and Guhl let alone last week, they wouldve beaten Avon and Bellmont Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

overtime Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 I know I was surprised when I came to the dual and seen them. It's a week by week thing with these two. Improves the Irish greatly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

busstogate Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 (edited) Based on some recent results, I'd say Crown Point will be able to give Portage a good battle. Mishawaka also looks formidable. Edited December 10, 2015 by busstogate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportsfangms Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Based on some recent results, I'd say Crown Point will be able to give Portage a good battle. Mishawaka also looks formidable. I'll take Portage 36-16 if wrestled straight. Portage is balanced up and down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
