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?

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. 

I wrestled a Kellen Bonebrake from North Montgomery. That was a pretty awesome name.

I believe Rushville had a Tuff Tackett a year or two ago.
one of my favorite names for sure

I think the Jay county sectional has the following tally:
 
35/56 Placers
19/28 Finalists
9/14 Champs 

State ranked #11 132 Jesus Aquino-Morales out at the Richmond Regional

Joe Garland from Rushville.  Finished 4th at New Castle and went all the way to the Finals the next week.  Wesley Bernard from Cathedral won Semi-State over Donte Winfield form Perry Meridian.  Joe lost to Dakota Ramey from North Montgomery in the 3/4 match.  The next week Joe was in the finals after beating Oglesby from Ben Davis, Bartoszek from Hanover Central and Bernard from Cathedral.  That set up a match with Winfield in the finals which he lost.  NC went 1,2,3 at the state that year.
 
What a fun state run that was!!

I could be wrong but I felt they were referencing a 4x'er going on to Ohio State. That's how I understood it. 

Because it happened off and on all day on that mat.  When it would start working it would stop again between matches, which is when they mute the mic.  And every time I sent in a support ticket, it magically got turned back on not long after.  And when it worked, it worked as it should, until the next time they muted it between matches. 
 
I'm comfortable with that assumption.

I have been severely disappointed with the officiating across the board. That was a terrible call.

I've sent support tickets to Flo about 7-8 times for Mat 3 today.  Sent 3 in a row during the Critchfield - Carroll match.  Finally it came on.  They must get tired of having to deal with multiple tickets for the same issue, which is simply someone at the table forgetting to UnMute their mic.  Ridiculous!

I agree with you. The officiating this weekend has been less than stellar
