MD92 2 Posted January 11 Just curious why wins over Brody Bauman are being considered as significant wins at 113. I know he a very good wrestler has a lot of credentials, etc. but just seems weird that a win over a junior varsity wrestler is considered significant.

I’d agree it probably shouldn’t count if it was a JV match they wrestled. However if it was a varsity wrestle match he competed in then he would be considered a Varsity wrestler for that match. Thus, even if most of his season has been JV, it can be called a significant win if the wrestlers overall credentials suggest it.

Dear Mr. Sandwell, I appreciate your genuine concern or most likely your attempt to degrade everything IndianaMat does. Please keep it up as you seem to really love to complain. When you start your own website I will gladly come on and complain about font sizes and why you have things certain ways. 4 1 Wrestling_Wrestler16, MD92, Wrestling Scholar and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UncleJimmy 673 Posted January 11 Oh, Snap! We have an "outing". Dang I thought that was Doug Annakin..how'd I misread that!!! Putting a name to a poster should make @Mattyb and @JMILL happy!! No such thing as anonymous poster in their world! Good offseason board activity...Guess the Anonymous Poster! I'd like to start with @Novice Bat and where has he gone? 1 2 Matdad, JMILL and Mattyb reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He would start for every team in the state except maybe six or seven. He pinned a returning Michigan state champion earlier this season. Ask that kid if Brody felt like a JV wrestler. Everyone in Indiana acknowledges that Brody is a bad ass, I guess except for you.

Let me be very clear here. I think Brody Bauman is a fantastic wrestler and I meant no disrespect to him. I agree that he would be a starter on just about any team in the state. I was just wondering if wind over non-starters are now being considered for the rankings. As far as being called out and identified, it is what it is. If it makes Y2 feel good to do that so be it. Again, if offense was taken, my apologies. It was just something that struck me as odd. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TeamGarcia 769 Posted January 11 Josh, we’re talking about High School wrestlers here . If he’s JV or Varsity really doesn’t mattter. If someone puts in a result on here it’s going on the wrestlers profile. Smh . The Notorious 1 1 Mattyb and Jayruss reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd like to start with @Novice Bat and where has he gone? Ho ho ho, A late Xmas / birthday present for me. The dude has been trolling me for years. I was hoping that he was a state champ or somebody awesome. Kinda disappointing. Owell, I sure he's an awesome dude (that loves busting chops). Seems to love the sport. Look forward to meeting him and maybe having a cold one (on me)! And I agree with the others.. the Bauman kid is a stud. Anybody that beat him accomplished a good win. Novice bat...……. hmmmm Edited January 11 by Mattyb 1 FCFIGHTER170 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MD92 2 Posted January 11 Nope, not a state champ here. Just a fan and a guy that likes to bust chops, as Mattyb says. All in good fun, but I guess I should be careful with other people’s sensitivities. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I don't pay too much attention to posting patterns so I don't question Y2's response (call me Switzerland?). It is very odd that a JV wrestler gets so much credit, but Baumann has earned it. He performed in Michigan and despite going 1-3 last weekend, showed his future is bright. I mean how many guys get the privilege of stepping up and facing the #s 1,2, and 3 ranked guys in the state in a matter of hours in the same day? Perhaps the question could have been asked differently? I know Doug Annakin would have done so! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
