Hola Friends.....285 lbs - #14 Antone Alexander - Franklin Central......Win over Gentry by Pin......

Agreed with Ratliff, 105 is a tough bracket. Been back and forth all season. Correction to 65 lb Varsity predictions......Gunner Butt should be shown as New Pal. (However we all know where he started...Take that!!!). Good Luck everyone and have some fun with this tournament.

Awesome idea. Count Franklin Township in on the meeting.

With that being said, can the teams plan on a formal parade before the start of the event? Hope everything went well with your son. See you guys Sunday!

As always, thanks for the additional insight. That makes things more clear for me and im sure others. NOW!!!! lets have some fun with this topic and change some gears.......If there was one thing I would request for the upcoming duals is a true parade of Teams. I've done the math for you already so the thinking part is done. You'll just have to figure out when to squeeze it in, which before the first match would be ideal. Okay, you take 20 teams and an average of 20 wrestlers per team. You can give 10 seconds per team to announce their club and let them enter the Multi-purpose area. You should be able to announce 6-7 clubs per minute. That's only 4-5 minutes added to the start time of the duals. Where the teams go would be up to you and how far you want this to go. Teams could line up from one side of the mats to the other. Or, you could form rows of teams on the mat. Whichever would be easiest for the picture of all the teams together before we go at it. WHATCHA THINK? See what happens when I get a question answered? It frees up my mind to think about fun stuff. Thanks for the replies guys.

Trying to get some opinions on how the Elementary duals were started in Indiana. I've been a part of wrestling here in the state with my older boys and now im at the last stage of the elementary scene with my youngest son. Its been a great learning experience for me and I've met probably the best group of coaches that a sport could have. Even in times of stress of bickering across the mat, somehow by the end of the day we meet, shake hands and laugh about how emotional we get with the sport and our wrestlers. My question is this....and feel free to correct me if my interpretation is incorrect. The ISWA Elementary duals began to give our younger wrestlers the high school dual atmosphere which in my opinion, it has accomplished. I couldn't begin to name the number of matches where both sides of the mat were on the edge due to the intense nature of some of the wrestlers. I think its a great learning experience and it DOES build team unity at an early age. If you can get a good number each year to buy into this, after a couple of years, you will have a nice start to a good future. Duals should always be a part of the ISWA season and hopefully built on as the years go by. That brings up the next topic that has me baffled........How can you manually seed the top 4 teams from a previous year? What criteria, besides them placing in the top 4 should guarantee them separation the following year? If that's honestly the case, then the top 4 teams should return with the same lineup from bottom to top. I'll even throw in the same wrestlers at different weights. As long as the team is the same as the previous season, all will be good. However, there is no way for that to be possible. For one, your older wrestlers at 6th grade move on to middle school.....You will generally come across a nice little 40 lb brick wall to add to the mix.....family's move in, family's move out.....heck, its possible that a wrestler will hang up his headgear to live the dream of travel basketball (please forget that I even used that as an example). Nonetheless, I hope you get my point. If this were individual, yes, there should be separation. BUT, this is a team event which should call for some different form of separation. My thought is this.......Indiana clubs and the ISWA need to sit a round table and come up with a seeding or "separation" criteria that's either all or none. It can be based on your team rank using trackwrestling or another recordkeeping program. My belief is that last season is last season. If you want to be separated from another club, you need to earn that during the season. Since the ISWA sanctions elementary duals, results should be easily accessible. Not sure if there is more to it than what im thinking and if there is, please let me know your thoughts. Im 40 years old, but im not ashamed to learn new things. Second, whichever the result is....setting brackets or pools should be a public meeting. I am unsure if the date and time was missed, but it was stated on the second page of the state dual flier that a time and date would be sent out. Again, if this notification ended up in my junk mail, my apologies and lets move on. This is not intended to start bickering or a war, however, I've been that small team that was on the outside looking in and the changes mentioned above will GROW the number of clubs participating in the dual season. We've seen it first hand. Feel free to comment as I would like to gather some thoughts from others. Again, this isn't meant to start bickering or bad feelings, its meant to make it better for the next guy. If any of you know me on and off the mat, you know that im not the type of person to start a fire. Thanks for taking the time to read. Coach Shelton Franklin Central Wrestling Club

Im thinking he better stick the next big tournament out. Were planning on having my 12 yr old and him with you for va beach if spots will be available.

Will do. Thanks for getting back to me.

Hey Bryan, You still in need of a 140#? Thanks.

Hey Shawn......two words.....Deven Williams. His success should motivate others at the school.

When do you think we will begin doing a middle school series that spans over 2-3 weeks? Break things down to regionals, semi state then a final state tournament? This would be good prep for soon to be high school wrestlers rather than one long day, one shot brackets.

What is the start time. We are fairly close to you but traffic might cause some issues.

Awesome day of wrestling. Congratulations to all the teams participating. This tournament has grown to another level for Indiana Youth wrestling. Below are the results: 1st Place - Avon 2nd Place - Duneland 3rd Place - Brownsburg 4th Place - Perry Meridian 5th Place - Center Grove 6th Place - Franklin Central 7th Place - So. Adams Gold 8th Place - Franklin Comm 9th Place - Westfield 10th Place - Terre Haute South 11th Place - Team Green 12th Place - Warren 13th Place - Mishawaka 14th Place - Penn 15th Place - Greenwood 16th Place - New Pal 17th Place - Jet 18th Place - Delta 19th Place - Columbus East 20th Place - Indy West

I'm not sure how that response got by me, but it made me chuckle.

Is 115# still available?

Indiana Pride academy down east Washington street and Outlaws is just a little North of them off 465 and 56th street. Those are two i would give reference to on this side of town.
