EvansvilleSpectator got a reaction from Lawdog in Stop Booing!
This all started when kids started taking injury time when they were gassing. So fans started booing. Then they assumed ALL injury time was for the lungs so booing increased. Now it's gone way too far and kids get boo'd for bleeding.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I didn't see one kid making themselves bleed to get a break.
Ben Harvey/Dylan Lydy finals come to mind. Tons of boos for Harvey because he couldn't get his nose to stop bleeding, which I'm sure Lydy did anyways with how intense that match was.

State champions per Semi-State:
Evansville (E): 3 ~ 21.4%
Merrilleville (M): 7 ~ 50%
New Catle (NC): 3 ~ 21.4%
Fort Wayne (FW): 1 ~ 7.1%
State Placers by SS
E: 31 or 27.7%
M: 26 or 23.2%
NC: 31 or 27.7%
FW: 24 or 21.4%
4's over 1's: 5
Worth noting that 3 of the 5 1's that went down were from FW. Then one each from M and NC.
The placements of these 4s were two in 8th, one in 7th, one was 4th, and one was 3rd.
Bonus Points:
37 Majors
3 Technical Falls
4 Forfeits
83 Pins
Of those pins, 33 were in the first period, 31 in the second, and 19 in the third.
Also worth noting was New Castle's 132 state qualifiers all placed.
Some numbers may be 1 or 2 off, I am human.

EvansvilleSpectator got a reaction from XCard in 138 - JOE LEE VS TOMMY CASH
Both great kids and glad this match happened. This arguement seems pointless. If you don't want the ref to call a pin that wasn't a pin, don't be on your back.
I hope Joe wins the next 3 years and think he will, but tommy won this year and we should applaud this great young man.

EvansvilleSpectator got a reaction from poitup123 in Any anticipated dark horses to watch for this weekend?
Cainan Schaefer #17 could do quite a bit better than his rank.
120 is about as easy to predict as winning the lottery 3 days in a row.
126 I think this guy named Chad could make a little noise if he plays his cards right and has a spunky enough outfit.
