Region likely to come home with 4 gold's. More than 1/4 of the total. I'm okay with it. That DAC though. All from two school districts that butt up to each other.
I can't help but comment on the outstanding performance of Portage at sectionals: 11 champs, 2 runners up, and a 3rd. Even though their sectional doesn't have the depth some of the Indy schools are seeing this year, I'd say that's quite impressive.
What other teams had an outstanding showing at their respective sectional?
We saw an article on the board over the weekend about rivalries. I think its clear we are seeing a new rivalry blossom in Covaciu and Lawrence. Covaciu has a big lead in the win count but Lawrence has closed the gap and it would be my guess that he is interested in a title in 2016 that requires him and Covaciu in the same bracket. the semi state finals was as good between these two as the finals match at state. While the region was talking about the black/reitz matches (which were a joy to watch as well) i think many counted Lawrence out against Covaciu.
i would say the worst part of this entire thing is the fact that many wrestlers would have to travil an hour+ to get to a qualifying tournament. Its really gut wrenching to see how badly FS and GR fell off in recent years. Indiana used to be huge in these styles, now its the opposite. BOO!
