  1. Its 10:15 and we are almost ready to wrestle. I might be right with that 10:30 prediction.
  2. I like your style, but I'm gonna go with 10:30.
  3. Does anyone know where Bobby plans on attending college?
  4. Merrillville in a close one. Unless the pirates decide to give up, but I see merrillville by single digits. Next year will be a whole new story though.
  5. I've been saying it all year..... This is Penn's year!!!!!
  6. ??? This will take away from a lot of wrestlers. How are you going to tell me that having your scaps out of bounds is still a pin. That's crap! Not to many wrestlers are going to be happy about it. There will be a lot less out of bounds stoppage though. We will see how it pans out. It could be good, it could be bad. My bet is on bad.
  7. They have a great group of coaches at penn, and a great family oriented team. They never bring their B game. All A game for penn. Slatton is a tough kid. I bet Osborne and him have great battles at practice
  8. Sinkovics will be taking on "Major" Black at the Al Smith. Could it be another "Black out"? Not to mention a rematch of the Harvest championship with Sopko and Slatton!!!! The rankings could go crazy that weekend!
  9. Sinkovics and "Major" Black will face off on the 27th at Mishawaka! could there be another "Black Out"?
  10. River Forest has 32 wrestlers and 18 play football.
  11. Good! Maybe someone else down state can win now! lol Mishawaka has been a beast! They have an eneormous team, and some GREAT wrestlers. Maybe the departure of Hasseman will open up the doors for others schools now! Mishawaka wont be the same, but they will def. recover! Who wouldnt want that job. lol
  12. Does anyone know if they will be selling sections of mats again like they did last year at Ben Davis??? I was wondering if they are not selling any sections again, does anyone know of anyone that will be selling sections of mats for cheap???? I need a few more for our club. We don't get any help from our school, so we have to provide for ourselves. Our school isn't very big on handing out money to the wrestling team, but then again, what school is. lol
  13. lol his dad molded him lol. He's only been at merrillville for two years. His dad is doing the same thing with his younger son gable. Gable will be better than Bobby.
  14. Thanks. I run River Rat Wrestling. I embraced the name we were given. Lmbo
  15. Yes he does. Just wait til next year! He will be ranked pre-season. Tough kid!
  16. I have seen youth state champs quit, and never join again due to parents putting to much pressure on them. It's sad.
  17. Lets go Scottie Sopko, and Isaac Rentas!!!!!! I wanna see you upset EVERYONE!!!!!!!! I hope the region Dominates at state.
  18. I was at the Valporaiso youth event on Sunday, and I saw a number of parents/coaches, re-living their lives through their children. I can't stand to see this. Parents need to understand that you have a yelling voice, and a cheering voice. Don't let them both be the same. There were a few parents/coaches that needed to be talked to. I witnessed 5 parents on different mats, practically in the middle of the match screaming at their wrestler. This is un-acceptable people. Then I noticed a coach screaming at the high school referee about a call he made. First off, he is a kid, and kids make mistakes, but it didnt warrant the kid to be cussed out by the parent/coach. That sets a bad example for the kids. They imulate what they see, and if what they see is their coach/parent acting like an idiot, then most likely they will in turn act the same way somewhere down the line. I would like to state that one coach/parent was escorted out of the gym for threatening a high school student. Thats just horrible! Even if the wrestler won evry match this whole year and next year, it still won't be enough to get him/her into college. They have a long ways to go from age 9! Mt advice to the parents out there who read this is, 1.) Act how you want your child to act. Set the example 2.) Dont treat the match as if its the National title match in college! (This puts unneccesary pressure on the athlete) 3.) Remember that youth wrestling is for building fundamentals that will transition into the next level of wrestling. 4.) Don't show disappointment to your athlete. (let them know that you are proud of them no matter what happens. (This builds a greater bond between you and your wrestler.
