Powerline Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Brad Traviolia, Wawasee. Big Ten Champ, NCAA Runner-up for Northwestern I agree Brad or Mark Whitehead from Warsaw who was NCAA runner-up at 190 lbs in 1989. Both were 3 sport guys. Whitehead was one of the best athletes I've ever been around. Guy could play football, wrestle, and could probably run a sub 5:00 mile for a guy who was linebacker size...wrestled high school part time until he went to Northwestern.

Novice Bat Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Gotta be Lee, I don't really think this question could have any other answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadet130 Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Totally forgot Brooks. Fargo and Super 32 champ and now MMA fighter I don't believe Brooks was a Fargo champ. He lost to Tomasello in the finals the year he made it. I could be wrong though, even though I was his coach for that match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greco165 Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Gotta be Lee, I don't really think this question could have any other answer. I guess a d1 championship isn't enough when your name is lee and haven't yet wrestled a collegiate match for your team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ontherise219 Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Eric KeithEric was(might still be) a beast. The most technical wrestler I had ever wrestled. He had some Friday night struggles while beating top ranked guys every year and won w loaded 140 his senior year. All 4 semi finalist were unbeaten.

Johnathan Spencer Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Wasn't DJ Radnovich at 1x'er at 215? Don't know what he did outside Indiana HS season but his senior year he was a STUD! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MD92 Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Matt Wills '91 HVY state champ. Don't know what he did previous years, but he pinned Frank Hammond ('92 state champ) in the finals in about a minute. Tossed him and then cradled him if I remember right. I think he also won senior nationals in '91. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ILUV2PIN Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 My updated top 3: I know, I know, a lot of dudes from my generation. I'm sure I am forgetting some old timers who were solid as well. 1) Nick Lee 2) Jared Brooks 3) Devon Jackson Honorable Mention: Taylor March, Garrett Pepple, and Drew Hildebrandt (spelling?)

Forrester Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 (edited) I almost feel like the fact that Nick only wrestled 3 seasons somewhat disqualifies him....though a 145 Finals matchup with Brayton Lee this year would have been, and I hate this word, epic.

SWINfan Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 2 seasons or 3? In a way, he did only wrestle his freshman and sophomore years. Last year he was 3-0 going into Sectionals with his only 3 matches at Team State. The State Tournament brought his final record to 19-1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
