blueandgold 90 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 Recently been noticing some guys who’ve made it to state as a senior on their sole trip and win it. I have a few names, but I wonder if there are any other wrestlers besides the ones I’m about to list that have won on their lone qualification. 2000: Bryce Hasseman, Franklin Community, 46-0 2012: Sean Mappes, Center Grove, 46-0 2013: Riley McClurg, Perry Meridian, 37-3 2015: Dylan Lydy, Ben Davis, 46-0 Seems like in the last decade this occurred three times. Are there any others out there? Jayruss 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I heard Anthony had only wrestled a year or two prior to winning his State championship. I wrestled on the same team as him at Indiana vs Illinois when he stuck Mount Carmel’s Jason Erwinski in the first period. Anthony was a freak athlete for sure! Link to post Share on other sites

He definitely wrestled as a sophomore and junior. Not sure about before that. Link to post Share on other sites

Are there any others out there? Just looking at these 4 tells you winning 3 or 4 titles isn't necessarily a required resume for success after high school either. Hasseman was a Team USA guy at least twice as a top 3 finisher at our trials. Mappes went to NCAAs at least twice. And Lydy is currently ranked in the Top 5 in the nation and has a great shot to be an All-American. Link to post Share on other sites

hook and half 499 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 In 1981, Mater Dei's Chris Wildeman was a one-trip wonder. Not only that, he won the state title... Trailing. In overtime. With a defensive pin. Twenty-two years later, his son, Sam, became a one-trip state champ. Sam beat a very tough Marc Bennett from Martinsville, albeit in less dramatic fashion.

Yea when we wrestled MD at team state in 01'-02' we got 5th as a team our stud 5th placer and d3 AA Keith Garrard went out there and got dog walked by this "wildeman" kid we wasnt familiar with..It didn't take long before we were put on notice He went on to win state the next season.

In the 2000 team semi-state, Mater Dei faced the Plainfield Quakers for the title. Mike Goebel's gamesmanship was on full display when he inserted reserve freshman Sam Wildeman into the lineup against Plainfield's undefeated Derek Donelson. Assistant coach Randy Helfrich had a plan for Wildeman.... Donelson had his hands full. Wildeman scored a reversal in the third period to make it 5-3. in a wild "pick 'em" scramble at the end of the match, Donelson came out on top and won by six. Plainfield's coach, Paul Nicodemus, was impressed, telling Wildeman "he was going to have a great career." FCFIGHTER170 and backtothemat 2 Link to post Share on other sites
chinwhipper 25 Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 What about Greg Larson in 1994? I remember him in freestyle and Greco but can’t recall him ever making it to high school state except for his senior year. Was he from Hanover Central? Link to post Share on other sites
