busstogate Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Personally I believe It will be a man from Yorktown winning a state championship, whether that be Laughlin (145) or McCormick (152) Glogouski is also a highly possible candidate to do it.

Old Region Fan Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Glogouski before Hidebrandt or Reitz or even Rooks I might be stubborn but.........WOW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrestling119 Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Glogouski before Hidebrandt or Reitz or even Rooks I might be stubborn but.........WOW So is it that they are the weakest this year or they have always been the weakest now? Your stubbornness comes from your past quote and has nothing at all to do with Glogouski's chance to win or not win a state title this year.

Old Region Fan Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 For 30 years many coaches in the Region area have commented about going through the Fort Wayne opposed to Merrillville SS so they could qualify more kids to the state tournament. To answer your question about this year or always, I believe that with very few exceptions the Fort Wayne SS is and has always been the weakest SS in Indiana. ontherise219 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

X_R A T E D Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Glogouski before Hidebrandt or Reitz or even Rooks I might be stubborn but.........WOWHildebrandt is the favorite at 120, I will agree with that. But the other two aren't huge favorites against Glogouski. Rooks is coming up two weight classes from 106 and that sometimes has a bigger effect than people realize. Last year Reitz jumped two weight classes after winning state at 106 the previous year and got beat Friday night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barry Humble Jr. Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 (edited) With programs like Warrior Elite, the quality of Fort Wayne wrestling will improve, if wrestlers take advantage of it. There are a lot of training areas for people in the other semi-states. Edited February 11, 2016 by Barry Humble Jr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maligned Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 For 30 years many coaches in the Region area have commented about going through the Fort Wayne opposed to Merrillville SS so they could qualify more kids to the state tournament. To answer your question about this year or always, I believe that with very few exceptions the Fort Wayne SS is and has always been the weakest SS in Indiana. I hate to tell you this, but the "weakness" of the fort wayne semistate only goes back to the early 2000s. I once did a study, looking at all the team points scored every year by the 4 semi states at the state finals from 1992 through the late 1990s. Interestingly, Merrillville was the weakest semi-state more often than not during that period. But no semi-state dominated and fort wayne was always right there with the best semi-states. It's definitely not true now. No one can deny that, but if you've been wishing you could go through fort wayne for 30 years, you weren't seeing things clearly for the first half of that time.

Y2CJ41 Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Kind of interesting that someone posting from the area of the Fort Wayne semi-state is trolling about this. I'm curious what Mr. Old Region Fan's point of this all is. Bulldog89 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Region Fan Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 The times I have been to the Ft Wayne SS it seemed like, I don't know, going to a basket weaving show or classic car show. Going to the Region was, well an adventure, Robbery, car jacking and fighting at the hotel seemed to set the mood for a great day of wrestling. Saw a few fans get drug out of the gym by the police too. ontherise219 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
