BrennanFan Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Wilderman has only lost once this season and that was to nationally ranked Frankrone out of Trinity, KY. He has actually beat the number one ranked Tonte 10-5 at team state. Yet, he remains ranked at #5 while Tonte is #1. Can someone explain why he has such a low ranking after beating the number 1 ranked wrestler in Indiana? Did the rankings people think it was a fluke? decbell1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

800lbs Gorilla Mama Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 It was a big win. They were going back and forth 5. Wilderman lost one 4. Cavins undefeated cadet All American 3.

I see some counting of last year in some of these. Wilderman was at 220 last year when he lost matches. I know he lost to Larson and Sheppard. Not sure who else? But he had some good matches with good kids. I take Wilderman over Lee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ontherise219 Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Yea I think you have to take some of last year in to account. I think wilderman coming down to 195 is a great move for him. His match with Farris also brought Kolby back in to the ranking. That also was a really good match Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had a hell of season giving up at least 25-30lbs every match as a sophomore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Novice Bat Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Wildeman will definetly turn some heads at state this year, and I can't help but think that he could be standing on the top of the podium at the Bank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TripleB Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 He reminds me of Sam Wilde(r?)man who won a state title for EMD in 03, unheralded, was never given a shot on the old board, his only loss was out of state I believe.

TripleB Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 I actually figured that was the case, lots of families names got jumbled back in the day. Some of the old IHSAA stuff I found also had Sam as a Wilderman and a Wildeman so wasn't sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing like a solid Lee Corso Reference...Ole Sammy put the hurting on old jimmy Schultz back in 03.... Well this could actually have so grounds in reality though. I do of some families that have decided to revert back to the previous "old-world" spelling of their family name. This is in an attempt to show their families original country heritage prior to the U.S. Immigration department mangling the name or the first-generation migrants modifying the name to help avoid discrimination.

hook and half Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 EMD dominated the finals that year, and Wildeman's pin was the highlight Wildeman pinned schulz in the semis and beat marc bennett of martinsville in the final. some say that the 2003 title match between dolli and maurer was the greatest final, ever.
