Recommended Posts

I was bored once again and put together a concept based on the current NCAA Division I tournament format. Not saying this is how it should be, just an idea.

 

IHSAA Wrestling Championships

February 17-18, 2023

Gainbridge Fieldhouse

Indianapolis, Indiana

 

 

Qualification

 

·      Ten regional sites with different qualifier allocations based on the weight score of the regional. A stronger regional earns more qualifiers while a weaker one has less.

 

·      32 wrestlers will qualify in total, doubling the original state field with the elimination of the sectional and semi-state championship tournament stages.

 

Regions

 

·      Northwest

·      Northern

·      Northeast

·      Mid-Northern

·      Mideast

·      Central

·      Mid-South

·      Southwest

·      Southern

·      Southeast

Same, Curious on the criteria of "Notable" 

No set criteria on being “notable.” It was just the schools I thought of in that area that people would recognize. Failed to mention Bellmont, but they would obviously be participating. Just slipped my mind.

He just threw an idea out there as something to think about and maybe comment on.  He obviously doesn’t have all the details fleshed out. Forgetting a team or two on a quickly drawn up  proposal doesn’t seem like a big deal, but I think pointing out lapses would be welcome.  I don’t think he meant to offend anyone.   Feel free to add some possible meat  on the bones if you care to.

 

This blueandgold guy keeps throwing out topics to think about and possibly comment on during a time when the board is mostly dead except for RTC announcements and the like.  At least he’s trying to keep the comment board active.

Is Bellmont not notable or not required to participate in these and everyone automatically qualifies?

At least he didn't call stalling.  Out of curiosity, is the elderly heckler still giving it to you all at events?  He ended up next to me and a student at semistate about a decade ago and I never have seen anyone like it in person.
