MattM Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 (edited) Hildebrandt, Hudkins, Red, Covaciu, Hughes, Rypel, Streck... Wow tough choiceAbout any other year a few of these guys would be shoe ins for the award. But this years senior class has Chad Red, whose scope of accomplishments in and out of Indiana puts him well above the group and maybe even any senior to come through Indiana.

FWwrestling1996 Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 You are definitely right. But there is 4 other kids that have been to the finals three times and won 2 titles. Very impressive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smooth34 Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Character is one of the criteria. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattM Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Character is one of the criteria.Well just to clarify the criteria given in the link. "The criteria for selection will be left intentionally vague as we want a variety of opinions as to who the voters think is the best wrestler. Some general criteria that can be considered is listed here: 1. Must be a senior 2. Undefeated/fewest losses. A midseason loss would not disqualify a wrestler. 3. Domination. Number of pins, tech falls 4. Level of competition. 5. Body of work previous to senior year. State and national resume. 6. Character 7. Grades Any, or all of these may, or may not, be taken into consideration by the voters when making their selections. We have chosen 39 voters to make this selection because we value their knowledge and experience regarding Indiana high school wrestling." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWINfan Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 I've been a critic of Chad's interview post match and lack of humility, however unless there are things about him that I don't know, I see NO reason that should affect him in terms of this reward. It's not my reward but I would be shocked if that were the criteria that caused another to be chosen. FWwrestling1996 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linn's Prodigy Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Y2 I'll flip some tables if Red doesn't get it. Come on he won one of if not the greatest Indiana high school wrestling State Finals matches. Bulldog89 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
