I'm sure Grange is probably injured - why would a team hold a senior out of their final conference tournament?

After Carroll left them, they prevented him from having a season and definitely don't want to give him an opportunity to wrestle one of their out of state transfers.

FC118 Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 The Circle City is not a very good wrestling conference but the marquee match will be at 152 between #5 Kody Glithero (Roncalli) versus #20 Eli Bustamante (Bishop Chatard). There will also be renewals of several old CYO rivalries with the best match at 182 between #10 Luke Hansen (Roncalli) versus unranked but very tough Tommy Hannon (Bishop Chatard). ontherise219 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's very frustrating and the reason I quit going to the majority of Penn's matches . I got tired of only seeing the true varsity a couple times per year .

They certainly would of beat Westfield and possibly Springboro as well had 2 of their best wrestlers wrestled .

Sounds like the opposite of what a coach would want for their team, seeing guys like Seltzer chasing a high level match vs Mendez is how it should be, idk Penns reasoning but I would be ticked if I was in your position.

It's all smoke and mirrors. There is a giant gap now between this area and the rest. Other places focus more on development, while Penn relies on bringing in established talent that seems to always regress. Kids in other places are wrestling up to get a shot at Mendez, while Penn hides from any real competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are saying there is a giant gap between Penn and schools like CP,BB and MD , then yes you would be correct. But those 3 schools don't make up the rest. I would also point out that those 3 have most certainly brought in established talent(transfers)at some point . If you look at the East Chicago SS power rankings , Penn is #2 and Mishawaka is #3. That tells me there is no giant gap between this area and anywhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's been about 7 years since Penn had anyone reach the semis. With a Texas and SC state champ you figure they'd at least get that far.

A big part of that is not being eligible. That's what held some out early. Pay attention to any ranked kids that will now be strangely absent going forward.

Vargo ran into nationally ranked Seltzer in the quarters last year. No other wrestler @ 126 in the state would of made it to the semis if they ran into Seltzer in the quarters .
