Definitely a sectional people might be looked over… 126 Has wood and Cook who will battle it out in the finals.. With walker and Daniels who are now slouches battling too! 132 is stacked with three State qualifiers and then to add Calvin Faurote who has beat two of them(Ulhman, and pinned Reiley). 138 is tough having two qualifiers and a stud in Loshe, not to over look Hernandez who had a close match with Clark! I feel for Gavin Davis and Austin Lewis(state qualifier) who both won’t be wrestling Saturday at 145. Both would be contenders to be a State qualifier. 152 has three state ranked guys in the weight class with Currie, Dull, and Manley.. Belmont has to be the clear favorite team wise but AC and Jay co could contend. AdamsCoBuschhh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will be too busy with porkburgers and dogfighting through brackets. WN's layout this year won't be a cakewalk. I think they get enough overall placers to win, though.

If Bellmont's studs all win in the finals it'll be hard to beat them though. Pg_rated 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say Bellmont comes away with 5 champs and 7 in the finals with another 5 getting through. AdamsCoBuschhh and Pg_rated 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

casualwrestlingfan Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 AC pushed Bellmont more than I thought. I figured Jay County & AC would be battling for 2nd much more behind Bellmont than they were. busstogate 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pg_rated Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 Shocked to not see any Belmont fans on here posting about the Calvin Faurote match against ulhman.. My heart goes out to that kid and family. Most definitely got robbed on the reversal call. If anyone has a picture they should post it! Felt that match followed him the whole day and cost him advancing to regionals! Ps. Keep your head up Calvin, much more to life than wrestling!

That ref should never ref another match again, absolutely robbed the poor kid. Should’ve been in the finals, instead he’s going home.

I heard on the radio how bad it was. I was stuck in Ohio for girl's youth basketball tournament. Doesn't matter the sport or age level, the officiating has been declining rapidly. I'm no superstar athlete or coach, but I do coach youth wrestling in Ohio & our club has been doing a few rivals nights in Indiana. Think the HS kids have done just as well as some licensed officials in both states in numerous sports. I don't want to be too critical as we need officials. However I think the certifications may be achieved too easily bc of the shortages. Not enough time in my schedule to coach & officiate. I'd not be a top notch, but I hope I wouldn't miss some of the obvious things. My FIL has no clue about wrestling but even he questioned things to me that were not legal. Same goes for basketball today where traveling made the NBA traveling look small in comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the best officials in our dual tournament in Ohio, which AC (my alma mater) was at as well, was the HS wrestler from Wayne Trace who is the defending state champ in D3. They were all decent at Wayne Trace compared to others. The old long time one in Liberty Center Ohio did not impress me. The big problem is the old quality guys are retired and the older guys a notch below are still at it. Plus the young guys just there for the paycheck. You can always spot the motives of all.

No reversal in any sense of wrestling that I've ever experienced. And to see that ref LAUGHING about it after he sat down made it worse. He had 1 other terrible non-call in Luginbill's match I believe the next round when the opponent was just laying flat. I hardly ever complain about ref's, as I used to do a lot of umpiring little league baseball games. This ref however, downright pitiful. I told y'all AC would push Bellmont, and nearly pulled it off. After Bellmont won the 195 weight class it was over. Dull and Currie did not disappoint again. I'll have to review my predictions and see how I did. The Hernandez 138 impressed me. Beat Loshe for 3/4. Going to be a tough Regional for those guys. 138 is stacked. Silence Dogood and Thor 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard the official in question has not been highly thought of in other events. Like I said, this is all from the shortage. Guess we have this or no wrestling at all unfortunately. Had a basketball ref stop mid game today bc of getting questioned by both coaches let alone fans. OHSAA & IHSAA licensing standards across ALL SPORTS just to get enough to participate.

casualwrestlingfan Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 Random question, but why is JC the host for sectional? They do a good job, but since they host regional, I'd figure the state would spread the wealth. South Adams based on location makes sense. Jay County for regionals & location make sense. Is it due to size or bidding? Just random question I've had for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
