Ok not only does team state prove who the best team is it also proves who the best coach is. If it is decided to make it decided by individual results you lose alot of coaching strategy. I grew up during the mater dei dynasty i started wrestling at the age 4 and now im a junior at mishawaka i can remeber hating how mater dei always found a way to win and alot of that is coaching. Goebel always new what to do to make his team win. Now i have been in jv for the last 2 years and as a jv wrestler we know there are really 25 things we have to do to acomplish what we want as a team 1.We have to help push and beat on the varsity during practice to make them better and to get them in better shape to help us get are goal of a team state championship. 2.We know that we could be called on anytime to jump ini the line-up whether for injury or to bump the line-up to give us a better chance of winning. An example of this was last year when we wrestled crown point and our coach darrick snyder told brian weldon a sophmore who was on the jv the he would be wrestlling eric roach and that he was the "sacrificial lamb". Coach snyder tells us everyday about how before he was there the just broke on state and how that was dumb, i remember hearing that when my dad coached here and asking him why they only said state. i know im alittle bias here because i am from mishawaka and our main goal every year is to win a team state championship, and individual state championships are icing on the cake. Team state championships make the whole school feel proud to be part of their school that is one thingn individual state champions just cant do. You cant build a program around indivual state champions, why they help for those years it is hard to do anything after they leave. A great example of this is griffith. they were great when the escobedos and tsirtis were there but now they are an average team. Team state championships are very easy to build off of because kids that know they are aaverage wrestler at a school with one or two studs will think they might not win anything but if theyre at a school with a great team program they will buy in and work to because they will have the chance at something. i know this because im in that situation right now. All i ask is for everyone to please support keeping team state as it is cause it only makes things better!
