    That was a takedown for Zar and should have been 3-3 and might have been a different match. Bad call and a HUGE one.

    Feel free to suite up and ref. I’m sure everyone would agree with every call you make.

  2. Growing up, some of the names that I remember watching were Jason Woodson, Jonathan Brownlee, Graylon Early to name a few of my favorites. As a coach, my first year as an assistant at Rushville, our heavyweight made an improbable run to the state championship match. Joe Garland was a phenomenal athlete and earned everything he accomplished his senior year. I got to coach against guys like Nate Trawick, Donte Winfield, and Norman Ogelsby that year. All tremendous athletes.

  3. I never understood how when the state tournament begins, a wrestler can miss weight. In most cases, the wrestler has been wrestling that weight class all year long. If a kid is struggling that hard to make weight, perhaps they should move up a spot. I also think it falls on coaches too. Make sure your wrestler is on weight in the morning before leaving, or get to the site as early as possible to check weights and give your wrestler a chance. I know in some cases a kid is just done, and doesn’t think they can make it. You definitely have to be mentally tough when cutting weight. 

  4. Curious to see how each sectional faired at regionals. 56 wrestlers advance so an even field of 28 from each sectional. I’m curious to know if there were any even splits, or just absolute dominance of one sectional over another. Richmond Regional was 36-South Dearborn and 20- Centerville. How did others compare?

    But it also points out right at the start of the seeding criteria that  “Varsity contests shall be the only records counted for seeding consideration.”   So the phrase later on sat  “any level of inter scholastic competition” seems a little of a grey area when that phrase is right at the start.  The intent may have actually been to make sure both dual and  tournament matches including consols/placement are to be counted.  Obviously a part of the rules that could use some clarificstion.  Then the following phrase in the same head to head criteria “matches against  teammates are not counted” seems completely out of place being one wrestler per team in IN can enter in a weight class. 

     

    Either way it seems pretty unlikely two wrestlers with a decent shot at being seeded would meet in a JV match.  


    You only count varsity matches towards the wrestlers record, but when you are doing the seeding, if two wrestlers compete at the JV level, then you can use that.

    They counted at our sectional.  Its a really interesting situation.  In theory a girl could be 20-0 in girls events and get the #1 seed at their weight in sectional.  For that reason I am against counting the girls event records toward the varsity events. 

    It would be somewhat similar to counting a wrestler's JV record toward their varsity record. That is not to take away from the girls event in any way, just to say that it is wrestling outside of the normal varsity schedule.

    While writing this I began to wonder... if two wrestlers were to face off during the season at a JV event would that count for a head to head win in sectional seeding?  I do not know that I have ever seen that situation come up.


    Years ago we counted a JV contest for seeding two wrestlers at sectional.
