Laplace came to wrestle!!! Again, I consider the laplaces friends. Lots of love for them. Always classy. Will be front row rooting in Jacob to win it all next year!

Wait..you're Chris Garcia? Then who the F is PistolPete? I'm confused...get TMZ on it!!! Look for him at the bank, ladies and gents!! He's hard to miss.... He'll be the one with the Contenders avatar hat on the front and Garcia on the back (probablyy state champ years embroidered on the sides, but I haven't seen him since those were won so I'm just speculating on that!!). Amirite??

160 and 182 are totally different.. i'm not hating on laplace i'm just saying using a 160 pounder as a indicator for what a 182 monster is capable of is Apple's to oranges.. There's weight classes for reasons and idc if he was p4p #1, 22 pounds of muscle and technique on a nationally ranked guy @182 is way different than wrestling a great 160 pounder.. since we are using wrestling math Brewer teched Bates over the summer and Bates beat laplace...I'm not questioning laplace skills I'm questioning The logic in comparing results vs a 160 and possible outcome vs a Nationally ranked 182.

Whichever one your own son is in...amirite??

Coach Dave Cloud from Pendleton, you are exactly what I have always thought you were, a class act, and a true gentleman. You are one of the really good guys in this sport.

Some of these comments are comical! I know both wrestlers well. Carson and Jake are both great wrestlers, great kids and the sky is the limit for both. Instead of being on the sidelines or on here talking about how one is so much better...let’s just say they are both great and enjoy a great match! Looking forward to seeing two of Indiana’s best go at it. Only sad point is it’s on a Friday night

I’m sure both gentlemen will bring their A game. Just sit back an appreciate the high level match we have the opportunity to witness on a Friday night.

No one giving Jimtown's murderer's row any chance here? Granted, all 3 will have VERY TOUGH semi's... 126: Watts vs. Mendez (Al Smith finals rematch), 132: M.Gimson vs. Viduya, and 138: C.Gimson vs. Rooks (Al Smith finals rematch also)... All three have really stepped up their offense in the post season. Watts beating Curtis 8-5 at FWSS was no small feat. Matt Gimson's only close match all post season was Cottingham. Connor Gimson pinned his way thru the entire FW semi-state. I wouldn't look past any of these three under the lights... they're gonna bring it, guaranteed.

Looking at the Super 32 results again, probably a good indicator who may be under the lights tomorrow.

good stuff... appreciate this and all of the other articles y2 put together.... kudos

I’m Kyle Ayersman...but in all honesty, I need some region flavor in my life so I will be stopping by to see you guys.

P4P 8th in the nation is a whole different scenario then a 14th ranked guy in a weight class. It should be a very competitive match. Laplace isnt a typical alternate and was ranked 2 in the state for a reason.

Coughlin. That slacker.

That was supposed to be Nick Crume vs. Phillips. Man, I was looking forward to that one.

Pretty sure Mendez beat him at Y’2’s tournament 1-0.

Yes he does... Dude is a little brick house.

Or at least serve as a shining example of how utterly preposterous our no wrestleback-having state series is.

In my personal opinion, this matchup is a toss up. I think a takedown wins the match. At this stage I'd say both get out from the bottom position leaving it to be settled in the neutral position. I think all could agree Mendez is more technically sound on his feet, however they are both incredibly smooth and Littell brings some horsepower to the party as well. Good luck to both studs this weekend!

Just a few that caught my eye, possible great matches and Team Race outcomes 106- Miller vs Cernus 113- Dalton vs. Pierson 113- Nelson vs. Seltzer 120- Betish vs. Boarman 126- Waldenzac vs. Curtis 132- Johnson vs. Brooks 132- Campbell vs. Viduya 132- Boe vs. Gimson 138- Alexander vs. Reynolds 145- Warren vs. Burdon 152- Hicks vs Rodgers 152- Ellis vs. Schoenegge 160- Davis vs. Pruett 160- Ruble vs. Asbury 170- Calhoun vs. Blaubaugh 170- South vs. Walker 182- Bellemy vs. Winner 182- Morgan vs. Donahue 285- Keys vs. Penn kid long name - matches I be tuned into the most .

Team Wrestlers Current Points Max Points Max w/o Bonus Brownsburg 7 7 182 140 Indianapolis Cathedral 5 5 130 100 Evansville Mater Dei 5 5 130 100 Avon 4 4 104 80 Roncalli 4 4 104 80 Columbus East 4 4 104 80 Crown Point 3 3 78 60 Perry Meridian 3 3 78 60

Bettish vs boarman and south vs walker are the two I’m keyed in on.

Toughest SS is Evansville meat grinder ? With EMD , BROWNSBURG , AVON , COLUMBUS EAST ?

Class Act

Congrats to your young man on the big win.

Just a Tombstone pie tonight.. Local BBQ (Vince and Saras) for tomorrow.

Cathedral in their gold robes!!!!

Laplace is lucky to get the second chance now let’s see what he does with it

Did i miss the post this year? I am always excited to meet the people behind the screen names. I know my weekend will start at the embassy suites. Stop by press row I’ll be doing some regionals sports work.

Agree, it's just crazy this has to happen on a Friday night. The loser tonight could potentially tech fall a place winner tomorrow... It is what it is..

I saw pistol Pete at the pub! He had Garcia in a headlock. Pretty sure that Garcia said uncle! Head there now and see the show!!! I’ll save your seats!

Updated the info page with parade of champions time.

Friday night heavyweight backflips should be set at .5 I'll take the under

Rioux, Garcia and Brewer would be my guess

Wondering if Aiden Warren can climb his way out of a hole and make Lee vs Warren family battle part II

One that immediately comes to mind is a few years back, 2x defending champ Colton Cummings vs Alec White, with White coming out on top on his way to winning the 126 title

Only if you're from Da Islands

Unless you are married to "your coach" then I wouldn't get comfortable on them or enjoy. someone could get fired or end up in jail

I personally believe the weekly articles have added a great reason to visit the website every week. On top of that there are some great stories out there beyond the wrestling mat. I know personally I have become a fan of many of the kids from the articles.

Unless it’s been revised then there can be an alternate. That alternate would then be the last person defeated by the eventual champ who also didn’t advance. In this case, it would be Cash. Page 9 section C(alternates) http://www.ihsaa.org/archive/b-wrestling/2008-09/Wrestling Officials.pdf
