Sinic the Great,

 

I have followed region wrestling for a while now including Merrillville and I don't remember your son ever wrestling for Merrillville. According to your profile your email address danny42bell@yahoo.com. Are you the same Danny Bell that helps with the River Forest team?

I know Coach David Maldonado fairly well and for you to accuse him and call him out is wrong. I am very confident that what you said

"I have seen it with my own eyes, and sat in the room when they asked my son to come for them. They said they would take care of everything.  My son wrestled for them his junior and senior year and did great."

Did not happen.

It's one thing to have your own opinion but to make false accusations is just simply wrong.

ok puppet no I'm not Danny bell since you called out David yourself yes he is a cheat and a liar no he doesn't do it himself he has stevtson do it and your the one wrong he has at least 6 maybe 7 kids on that team that are from other towns around the area I can sit here all day and make my points but I hope the chicken heads of iihsaa that they take a good look into her and David there the worst o ya sorry they couldn't even win they conference with all the star power they have to all of the wrestlers hope you guy do great this is not against the wrestlers this is again to the hypocrite ad they have in the school system and on the board iihsaa again practice what you preach puppets please don't reply

If I had to wrestle in this regional I would cry stacked  from top to bottom great job to all the coaches and wrestlers have a great state run

I don't see any reason to call out anyone especially kids on this website. I don't think it's anyone's business why that kid transferred mid season but I know for a fact that their was a valid and personal reason for it and it should be left at that. His previous school did not have a problem with the transfer.

i never called the kid out hope him any every kid the best of luck but the ad of let say school number 1  wasn't gonna against school number 2 she is on the board and you know it so if I'm calling someone out its her  and if she lets it go than like I said shame on her she's a hypocrite and  lier

are you kidding me for her to bring this up is just wrong she's the ad and she lets this stuff go on all the time she's a joke how many wrestlers do they have on there team that doesn't even live in there town they had a kid transfer mid season come on lady your a joke and yes I'm calling you out this a bunch of bull practice what you preach and David is all about it get me kicked of this site because its the truth and all you puppets can bash me for saying this but it's true so to bad

yes she is right but if the school knows about it and let it happens anyway its the program and the school should pay for it not the kid

UNSTER, Ind. (AP) — Parents at a summer Little League All-Star tournament will have to be much more careful of what they say or who they talk to. The same goes for parents of grade-school-athletes playing travel baseball, softball, soccer or basketball in the summer.

 

For the first time in history, the Indiana High School Athletic Association’s bylaws on recruitment are no longer being applied to high school students alone.

 

With the passing of Bylaw 20-2 this past summer, potential student-athletes as young as 10 could lose their high school eligibility if recruitment is found.

 

IHSAA Commissioner Bobby Cox said the association in Indianapolis that governs high school sports in the state has heard reports of outside people influencing youngsters to attend a certain school to play sports. If found out, a fifth-grader could lose his or her high school athletic eligibility.

 

“We’ve never discussed what happens before the ninth grade,” Cox said.

 

Until now. The bylaw was authored by the IHSAA’s executive staff and approved April 30 by the Board of Directors by a 16-0 vote.

 

Merrillville Athletic Director Janis Qualizza was at the meeting and agrees 100 percent with the new bylaw. She said a day doesn’t go by where one of her middle school coaches comes into the Pirates’ athletic office and tells stories about students being recruited to leave by an unaffiliated lay coach.

 

“Ten years old, come on,” Qualizza said. “The recruiting has gone bonkers. We have middle school kids telling our coaches they should go to another school because of this or that. It’s crazy.

 

“I don’t know the answer to stopping all of this. But we have to try.”

 

This is the first school year where Bylaw 20-2 applies. Cox said no case has come up under 20-2 to date.

 

Crown Point attorney Michael Jasaitis has taken on the IHSAA in many eligibility cases through the years. He expects Bylaw 20-2 will keep him and other attorneys busy once eligibility cases come to the forefront.

 

“This new IHSAA bylaw appears to be a rule with terms so vague that reasonable persons would have to guess at its meaning and would apply the rule differently, which may render it invalid pursuant to the concepts of vagueness and overbreadth,” Jasaitis said. “Such a rule also could be overreaching, especially in light of the fact that a high school athletic association is attempting to punish 10-year-olds, which would seem to be outside of its jurisdictional authority.

 

“Nevertheless, it will be interesting to see what a court would do if this rule is challenged in the future.”

 

Jasaitis pointed out one line in 20-2 that shows what he calls the vagueness of the rule. It reads, “A student with a history of athletic recruitment is a student who was, at any time after the student’s Tenth (10th) birthday, recruited by an individual or agency which has a reputation or history of recruiting students who have shown athletic talent, have shown potential athletic talent or whose physical appearance was consistent with those of an athlete ...”

 

“What does that mean?” Jasaitis said. “We’re going to look at the physical appearance of a 10-year-old?”

 

Marvin Rea, Bowman Academy athletic director and boys basketball coach, said also he is confused about how this will develop.

 

His 2010 Class A state championship team had six players who played for him in AAU ball when they were 9. He was not associated with Bowman at that time. He was an engineer.

 

“If this rule was written 10 years ago, I would’ve been in violation, or maybe not,” Rea said. “What is their definition of recruiting? Coaches have camps for grade-school and middle-school kids everywhere. Can you have clinics? Can you have camps? Can baseball or softball coaches give lessons or coach travel teams where they can influence kids to attend their schools?”

 

Many local AAU programs use high school gyms for practice. Is that now a violation if the student is 10? Or 11 or 12?

 

Cox knows his association’s move is historic. But he and his membership also believe that recruitment at the lowest levels has brought this about. “We’ve heard scenarios where sixth-graders are being identified as potential athletes by outside people,” Cox said. “We’re trying to combat that.”

The phone is ringing.....

 

"Hello Abraham, Joe and Brendon...this is Coach Dulany. Fellas do I have a deal for you!"

The team I went with last year is most likely not going to be going this year and I need a new team to go with. I would prefer the team I go with be in the largest community division or the all-star division, but I will be willing to go with a team that is in the smaller community division. I have been an all-american there the past two years so I will contribute some team points to anyone who needs a heavyweight. If you would like to contact me, just send me a message with your name, team name and phone number and I will get in contact with you.

*You're *probably stupid...

Your still crying!? When your life is to be on this message board, you have a sad life I may be stupid but your pathetic. 156 posts hmmmm? Whats your concern, rankings or wins?

Maybe the DAC coaches think quality not quantity. It seems to work fairly well for them.

To whom it may concern; to everybody who is complaining about who beat who and who should be where, your stupid, all that matters is who wins at semi-state not one through ten. Lets remember they only take the top four. And if your complaing your child probally is not very good.
