GenHeavierHandz Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 (edited) Who should the General consider for his all time Fort Wayne team? Edited June 24, 2022 by GenHeavierHandz misc aoberlin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Is this semi state, or just the city of Fort Wayne? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aoberlin Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 I'll need to do some research to fill in everything. Off the top of my head the ones that stick out and only counting State Champions. There are a bunch that arguably in tough weight classes or had some roadblocks in front of them that were incredible. Also I am only counting High School accolades. I haven't done a team by weight class. Maybe this weekend. Woodson - Snider Wagner - Snider Brooks - Northrop Eric Early - Northside Gralan Early - Northside Talamantes - Bishop Dwenger Myers - Bellmont Gunsett - Bellmont March - EN Pepple - EN Sprunger - Bluffton Pursley - Bluffton Hutchens - Plymouth Kerkof - Delta Jarred Brooks - Warsaw Kevin Carr - Wawasee I am sure I missed some but these are the ones I have witnessed. Then I have heard about Palmer from Delta. Palmer - Delta (I never got a chance to watch him but his accolades are huge) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Off subject, but Palmer was chiseled, small hips. A vice grip. Now days with the training opportunities no telling where or what his limits would be. MUSKEEWRESTLER 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwoodjc89 Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 I'd probably throw Oliver Richmond from Elmhurst in there. 2x Champ I believe. Ironbear 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really wanted to count him though. Are you counting Concordia, Luers, Dwenger? Or just FWCS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maligned Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Around 20 champs and all but a couple are between 1990 and 2005 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jermaine Brooks? the 160lb 91 State Champ who smashed Ashley from Belmont in the 91 Ft Wayne Semi-state finals. Never mind you talking about Jarred no by his time Warsaw went to da region.

Websterk149 Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 What about an all time Muncie/area team? A solid team would be my guess with all those schools in that range. Delta, Yorktown, Cowan now if you'd like, Muncie south, Muncie Central, Wapahani, Monroe Central, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Eveler Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Mid 80s also had Elbert Starks (Snider??) & John Sewell Northside along with previously mentioned Oliver Richmond - I believe Sewell was also a highly decorated running back Ironbear, aoberlin and Hirsej01 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The General wants to hear about Fort Wayne specifically. I have my Rushmore stated for Fort Wayne, at least the State Champions I have witnessed. I will throw Lapsley from Snider in there also. I didn't watch him as much because that was when I was going through college and some personal life lessons.
