Middle School Team State Picks

[WrestlingDad1 14]

With middle school team state happening this Sunday was curious to see who everyone is picking for top four finishers? Thinking Brownsburg, Center Grove, Perry, Delta, Portage and Franklin will have the best shot to bring home the gold

My best bet would be CG edging out Brownsburg. 
 

Can Preston wrestle in it?

The Haines boys are not eligible as I understand it. Should be a lot of good matchups though!

Congrats to all teams that participated in yesterday's event.  It was very successful and was well ran.

With that being said obviously congrats go to the Champions Center Grove and the runner up Jay County and 3rd place finisher Brownsburg as well.

I want to recognize another team for what I feel sometimes gets over looked and goes without mentioning too often.  At the end of the day the voice on the microphone announced that we would ask all teams to do their part in cleaning up their area.  While myself and a couple other ISWA directors, board members and the president were collecting our equipment someone commented to the Perry Meridian team and coaches that we appreciated them cleaning up their area.  They advised us they had already cleaned up their area and were cleaning up another area on their way out the door.

Then after that was completed 2 kids from that team came to the ISWA President and myself and very politely & respectfully asked if there was anything else they could do to help us and thanked us for the day.

Keep in mind these are MS kids showing the maturity and grace of what we would expect from most if not all of our HS age kids.

 

Now this is where I should and would normally make a joke at the expense of @lewdwar but in this case I feel its best to just keep it classy and say thank you and you are doing a great job mentoring and leading those kids and it definitely is showing !!!! 

 

Respectfully,

Jason Miller ISWA Kids Director

Would anyone be in favor of doing a class system for Middle School Team State.  I think my team could be competitive against team our size but we can't compete against teams that are combining 3 middle schools to make one team.  Thoughts on making 2 or 3 divisions?

I would imagine that is the path that it will go once interest grows and there is an expansion of quantity of teams participating increases.  Elementary state duals are classed using their teams high school class used in IHSWCA Team State duals.
