Wrestling is one of the only sports where the size of the school will not hinder the kids so dont hide behind that. The only thing that can is their work ethic. If they work hard and go to the hard tournaments they will be talked about on here. So if you want to get them mentioned on here dont worry about their team win loss record & go to tournaments with solid teams like. Perry Meridian, Crown Point, Cathedral, Merillville, Roncalli & Elkhart Memorial. sure they may get beat up but they will battlehardend for the state tourney and go farther. Also after a few seasons your whole program will benifit Your kids will learn to wrestle like them and practice like them. Stop taking offense just understand you are applying the wrong effort to the wrong problem. help them work harder and smarter good things will happen and they will have their name broadcast all over here. Look at Nick Manning,Schroder, & the Ritchey brothers for example I believe these kids are from small schools but there was plenty of talk about them on here. We all like it when our Southern indiana boys do well and the teams down here grow stronger.

post all you want talk all you want like preparetowin is to polite to say I will paraphrase for him. the next few weeks will show what is real and all this talk and these BS posts wont matter. I am pretty sure if a kid is about to get pinned or beat he can tell the other kid where he was ranked on indianamat before the state tourney and that kid wont give a s@*t he is still gona stick him. Spend more time teaching and preparing him and less time on here promoting him and you will reap better rewards

From what I read there is one Pearson from JC on here complaining and 1 fan was thrown out when it wasn't even his son wrestling. Please address your comments to those people and not the kids or the program. Unfortunatly there are sore sports in every county. Unfortunatly the coaches can not confroll the fans or the people who are on here. Good job east See you at sectional. By the way any one interested Baldwin had his surgery today and is doing well

First off I am Not passing any judgement on Tanner nor was I attempting to BASH him as I would be very upset in his situation if it reads that way I am sorry. As I tried to point out from what I have been exposed to him his actions after the DQ were not like him. As for Coach Skinner I read his statement as a passive agressive attack on Baldwin. If coach skinner ment no disrespect to Baldwin Than I appoligize to him for my statement about that. But as we all know what we mean to say is not as important as the way it is revcieved. To Coach skinner and the rest of his supporters if he was not attacking baldwin I am turly sorry I just knew if Baldwin read it the same way I did he would take it very pearsonal. Thank you for clearifing your intent.

I have never posted on here but after the last post I think I must Coach Skinner. To set the record straight there were 2 bleeding sets of teeth prints both on the top and bottom with both sets of teeth prints clearly visibal for quite some time after the match. Also howard was about to go to his back and give up back points. The reffs have made their ruling apeal if you wish but dont try to blame this on Baldwin and attack him and I happend to be standing right next to you when you were informed it was called flagrant after which you stated that the reffs would never f@$#ing Reff in Scottsburg again right infront of your kids as thay booed and cussed the jennings county people and as your wrestler was in the locker room punching stuff and wrecking his hand yet you never corrected your kids or stoped them. I would like to suggest that you keep your statements to your self and direct your coments tword your own wrestlers and keep better controll of your emotions infront of your kids you as a coach should know this. My son wresteled with Baldwin for a few years and he is one of the cleanest young men I have ever met I think he spends more time at Church than the father of his church and you should be ashamed for trying to attack him. If you are a selfrespecting grown man you will appoligise to him on here in case he reads it but last i knew his coach did not allow his kids on here and you should also explain to your wrestlers that were by you when you lost controll and cussed the reffs that you were wrong and that was not a good example for them to follow. This is the type of behavior that is tearing at our sport and you should want to stop it not display it. In closing and with all sincerity as for howard he is a good kid from what i have experienced who it would seem lost his composure as we all do from time to time and I hope he did not damage his hand to0 severely in the locker room. P.S. If you read this Coach Jones I am sorry for posting I know yo do not approve
