blueandgold Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 (edited) I used to do this topic on here a few years ago, and wanted to bring it back to see the all-time best lineup for some particular schools in Cathedral and Perry Meridian... Weight Class | Name | Best Finish (Career) Cathedral 106 | Evan Dickey | State Runner-Up 113 | Lance Ellis | State Champion 120 | Brandon Wright | State Champion 126 | Zeke Seltzer | State Champion 132 | Breyden Bailey | State Champion 138 | Logan Bailey | State Runner-Up 145 | Jordan Slivka | State Champion 152 | Vinny Corsaro | State Runner-Up 160 | Brian Harvey | State Champion 170 | Ben Harvey | State Runner-Up 182 | Blake Rypel | State Champion 195 | Ben Stewart | State 3rd 220 | Matt Hasbrook | State Champion 285 | Wesley Bernard | State Champion Not listed: Zach Melloh, Tyler Willis, Elliott Rodgers, Lukasz Walendzak, Jacob Obst, Holden Parsons, Alex Mosconi Perry Meridian 106 | Toby Billerman | State 3rd 113 | Alex Cottey | State Champion 120 | Sam Fair | State Runner-Up 126 | Jared McKinley | State Champion 132 | Matthew Koontz | State Runner-Up 138 | Brandon James | State Runner-Up 145 | Cody LeCount | State Champion 152 | Nick Walpole | State Champion 160 | Kirk Johnson | State 3rd 170 | Noah Warren | State Champion 182 | Jake Masengale | State Runner-Up 195 | Tristen Tonte | State Runner-Up 220 | Nate Moore | State Champion 285 | Chico Adams | State Champion Not listed: Donte Winfield, Frank Hammond, Brett Johnson, Brooks Davis, Brian Vest, Jacob Tonte, Kevin Clem, Eric Aue, Ngun Uk, Cornelious Elliott, Brayden Lowery, Logan Cooper, C.J. Martin, Riley McClurg, Nick Bova, Gill Journey, Shaun Richardson In a hypothetical dual meet, I have PM winning a close one. Dickey over Billerman MD 4-0 Ellis over Cottey Dec 7-0 Wright over Fair Dec 10-0 Seltzer over McKinley Dec 13-0 B. Bailey over Koontz Dec 16-0 James over L. Bailey Dec 16-3 LeCount over Slivka Fall 15-9 Walpole over Corsaro Dec 16-12 Brian Harvey over Johnson Dec 19-12 Warren over Ben Harvey Dec 19-15 Rypel over Masengale MD 23-15 Tonte over Stewart Dec 23-18 Moore over Hasbrook Dec 23-21 Adams over Bernard 23-24 You can argue whether or not at 145 Slivka gives up a fall to LeCount, but LeCount in 2014 at 145 did in fact pin both Tommy Forte and Ben Harvey and pinned 2x champ Jake Covaciu the year prior, while en route to repeat Slivka did give up a major to Donnell Washington earlier in the season, so I’m going with the bonus on LeCount’s side.

ontherise219 Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Had to reach out to a Cathedral historian he shot me this text. Cathedral has a pretty strong squad. 1992 Jason Terry 2X Champ, 4 Time placer at 103/106. 1998 Eric Sakon 1995 Pleak lost like 10 matches and placed 4 times. Andy Cope was an undefeated heavyweight champ. So many more. Darrick Brownlow. Gene Boyd. Missing a bunch of champs. Jayruss 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TysonNisley Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 I had to do a pretty deep dive into our history to get a good all-time roster for LaPorte but I think I have something now. There are some good wrestlers for LaPorte that wrestled way long ago (we had two state champs close to 100 years ago) but I won't include anybody that wrestled longer than 41 years ago (1980 is the cutoff) 106: Ashton Jackson | X, 1st, --, -- 113: Jason Milton | X, X, 5th, 7th 120: Ian Barclay | X, 5th, 8th, 5th 126: Ron West | X, X, 3rd, X 132: Mark Scott | X, X, X, 1st 138: Mike Bartley | X, Qualifier, 7th, X (I almost made it on the list ) 145: Guy Corbett | X, X, X, 2nd 152: Jeff Henry | X, X, X, Qualifier 160: Joel Baker | X, X, 5th, X 170: Vincent Stigler | X, Qualifier, Qualifier, 1st 182: Jerry Jackson | X, Qualifier, 1st, 3rd 195: Matt Graham | X, X, 7th, 1st (Gave up no takedowns his senior year I believe) 220: Kyle Simpkins | X, X, X, Qualifier 285: Landon Blackburn | X, X, X, Qualifier Luckily, Indianamat has a page with every team's history, so this list was a lot easier to make than I thought it would be. Overall, we have 5 state champs on this list, and only one runner up, so when we do get people under the lights, it's probably good to bet on us.

I know technically Baker had a better record and a higher place--but that iconic Billy Naegle Friday night throw (plus the Greco AA status) puts him on your list for me as an outsider looking in.

TysonNisley Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 Did not know that, but he's still placed 7th while at LaPorte, and the only other two at 138 with state experience is Chad Ellenberger and myself, but we both only qualified our senior years.

TysonNisley Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 I remember coach telling us about that headlock on Friday night, I tried to go strictly off of higher placements for this team but it's nice to see that LaPorte Wrestling has had its iconic moments at the Bank.

The Professor Morgan Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 Billy naegles headlock was the truth. I remember going to junior duals with him. It was the only move he would do, but he would hit it. There was one match that score ended up something like 31-28 or something absurd as they both kept throwing each other.

Then the following 2X Qualifiers: Lonnie Chamberlain, Ethan Fiechter, Jarrod Schwartz, Cody Walburn, Anthony Moser and Logan Moser. Add to that, there are 20 one -time qualifiers. Maybe not all the champs as the “Big Boys” but not too bad for a 1A school with less than 200 boys (some have to play round ball) FCFIGHTER170 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
