  1. I was curious because there were a lot of people saying Sliga would be the next best wrestler in Indiana. I feel like the fact that he is a sophmore wrestling in an upper weight could ahev played a huge factor.
  2. "What religion forbids the two-point reversal?" Thank you rick reiley haha
  3. Was this a butt whoopin or did stevenson have a 5 point move? Can anyone touch base on this please
  4. Thanks this trackwrestling site is real nice!
  5. I am not seeing the updated brackets on Ihsaa site. I see the brackets but none of them are updated. Can someone please help me thanks
  6. Haha good one polytropos Being alive in a tournament is different then winning a state championship. The wrestler can only get 3rd now. He had a shot at being a state champion. He was actualyl favored to win the title. You think he would have made the same decision if he was wrestling in Indiana, where if you lose 1st round your done. Or if he was a Senior you think he would have given up on his shot at a state title? I don't think we will ever know.
  7. He Quit on his season. Just because he didn't wrestle the match doesn't mean he didn't quit. I think what IUPsych is trying to say no matter how subtle it was...it was a "form" of discrimination. Like I said before. Girls are in our sport get over it.
  8. I feel like i'm alone on this wall. It's a girl who made a decision to wrestle with boys. We are taught to leave emotion at the door. I've wrestled girls before and you are more conscience about not hitting a high crotch or a butt drag or even pinning them with your stuff in their face. I bring this up because you are mentally conscience that you are wrestling a girl and should respect them at all times. But to forfeit your season because you don't want to wrestle a girl is your problem. Do you think that girl wanted to win like that. It's bad for our sport. Go out there and wrestle her. Once you learn to quit, it becomes a habit. -Lombardi-
  9. It's funny cause as a soceity we don't care about someone until they are a winner. Nobody cared about girls wrestling boys until they started winning then everyone started raising concerns. Even on the college level, nobody had a problem with a wrestling a person with one arm or leg. Until the wrestler with one arm or leg "Robles" starts winning. I don't know how I feel about girls wrestling because I don't have a daughter. If the wrestler was raised a certain way and didn't feel that wrestling a girl was appropriate then so be it. But what did his parents teach him about forfeiting? I disagree with him forfeiting, but then again I wasn't home schooled so I dunno.
  10. DES MOINES, Iowa -- An Iowa high school wrestler who was among the favorites to win his weight class has defaulted on his first-round state tournament match rather than face a girl. Joel Northup, a home-schooled sophomore who was 35-4 wrestling for Linn-Mar High this season, said in a statement Thursday that he doesn't feel it would be right for him to wrestle Cedar Falls freshman Cassy Herkelman. Herkelman and fellow 112-pounder Ottumwa sophomore Megan Black made history this year by being the first girls to qualify for the tournament. Black was pinned quickly in her opening match. Northup said in a statement that he has "tremendous" respect for the girls' accomplishments, but doesn't feel it's appropriate for boys to engage girls in a combat sport. I pulled this article off of ESPN Today. All I can say is wow! Thoughts?
  11. What was Kieffer ranked and what was his opponent ranked?
  12. Well said sir! Unfortunate series of events but someone has to lose and someone has to win. It doesn't seem like we have the whole story because it seems like a wrestler with such a tradition of the sport in wrestling wouldn't just let someone pin him. I didn't even like letting my little brother fake pin me growing up because its something that your taught from very early on. Ticket round of semi-state come on.
  13. As you can see by my comment I thought everyone wanted a classed INDIVIDUAL system not team haha. I love wrestling!
  14. What if.... We never got to see Jason cook wrestle Jordan Hump in the finals? We never got to see Blake Maurer and Alex Dolly hammer it out? Jason Tsirtsis never got to redeem himself in the rubber match against Cashe' Quiroga in the finals? There are a million matches that may have never happened bc those wrestlers may have been in different classes. I don't care whether we have Team State or the Championship is won like in college. But, to change Indiana wrestling to be just like everyone else doesn't make it right. We haven't gone to classes and that because year in and year out the best HAVE to wrestle the best. Andrew Howe is from a small town and he would have been in the lower class. Do you think he would have been as good wrestling half the state? The answer is......yes because he's a friggin machine but we would have questioned how good he really was while in high school. Please don't go to a class system.
  15. I don't believe there should be full wrestle backs at semi-state but it would be nice to see it at state. All to often we see wrestlers wrestling for 5th when they should have been wrestling for 3rd. Illinois has this system of full wrestle backs at state and I think it would add a nice element to state. How many more rounds are we going to add to semi-state people? We already added 4 wrestlers per weight class a few year back. Why don't we make it 6 so it will be just like regionals. Let's not water this down anymore.
  16. It will be interesting to see who wins Individual State as a team and who wins Team State especially with all the talk of eliminating the team portion.
  17. What happened in the 103lb match in 1991-1992 to get the wrestler in the finals disqulified? All it says is Jason Terry from Cathedral won and there isn't even a name of the person he wrestled. Just curious.
  18. Alex Dolly I think he could of beat SEVERAL of the state champions in other weight classes that year. Tough draw that Blake Maurer is.
  19. Only thing I can remember that is close was Jason Cook was state runner up freshman year then lost 1 round of regionals.
  20. I think he was just saying that is a bold statement saying he will be Indiana's Best ever. Angel 1,1,1,1 Collegiate National Champion, 4 time All-American Howe 2,1,1,1 Collegiate National Champion, 2 time All-American so far only loss was to Hump Hump sq, 1,1,1 Collegiate Runner Up, freshman yr los to Angel Sliga is dang good and one of the better big men we have seen in Indiana and at such a young age but let's let him be a teenager before we guarantee he'll have better resumes then Indianas recent best. Goos luck to everyone this weekend.
  21. Wow the 119 class is unfortunate. There are 6 kids that could be on the podium. Merr SS has a tough draw at 103 7 ranked with 5 in the top 10 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 13, 14,
  22. No offense to Sliga but his resume isn't the same as Tsirtsis. He lost one time freshman year to Cashe' was regarded as the best pound for pound wrestler then. Then Tsirtsis defeated him to win state. The next year Cash'e was an All-American at Purdue University. Pound for pound Tsirtsis has Sliga's resume beat. It's not about where people are from just facts.
  23. 135 agreed. Could this have something to do with who is at 140?
  24. 52 times. That's how many times Cutler was sacked and he only missed one game during the regular season. I'm pretty sure he is tough. I guess this is how we support our Indiana boys.
