I go on Illinoismat every once in awhile just to watch all the bashing.  They are ruthless on that site.  Good job on keeping the knuckleheads out.

Goodwin hasn't been in the room lately, but I would guess 90/95.  Mis will probably be the favorite with a lot of those guys going to 95.  95 should be the toughest bracket if all those wrestlers end up there.

 

Maybe this could be the seeding criteria:

 

1. Returning middle school state champ

2. Returning middle school state placer

3. ISWA folkstyle schoolboy state champ

4. ISWA folkstyle schoolboy top 4 placer

5. ISWA folkstyle novice state champ

6. ISWA folkstyle novice top 4 placer

I would much rather have track seeding opposed to a blind draw.  They should add a box to add a wrestlers achievements when they are registering as another way to separate.  Because 6th graders will not have returning middle school placer criteria or even schoolboy criteria. 

_{90 looks to be the same kids that battled it out at 75 last year.  Hopefully they separate them better this year.  It will be a fun bracket with Drousias, Mis, Campbell, Conley, Seltzer, Alstott, and Rioux.  Anyone of those guys could win it.} 

_{Talked to Drousias yesterday and he said they will prolly be at 95 as well.  I have noticed Freeman has been wrestling great, not sure if he will be at 80 or 85 though.}

Nick, high school wasn't your only team state champs... another tattoo maybe?

I was wondering the same thing.  I have been checking everyday for the last week.

Indiana placers at this tough elite tournament:

Sergio Lemley-66-3rd place

Logan Frazier-70-6th place

Sam Goin-79- 3rd place

Jesse Mendez-84- 1st place *Outstanding Wrestler Award

Colton Drousias-89- 3rd place

Noah Mis-89-  6th place

Brendan Mattingly-101- 2nd place

Joey Stricklin-115- 4th place

Raymond Ellis-130- 3rd place

Walsh just won 11-2 ending with a big 5 point throw.  If he wins his next match he might face Ness.

This past weekend Indiana Outlaws took two teams to Toledo Ohio for the National Middle School Duals and placed 4th and 6th.  The gold team was really close to taking 2nd only losing by 2 dual points to the 2nd place team.  The team was a little beat up after losing 2 wrestlers to injuries earlier in the day or it could have been a different outcome.  I recommend this tournament to anyone debating on taking a team next year.  It was ran smoothly, great competition, great awards, and it was broadcasted on flo.

I love track... If a kid has an impressive profile he can put some fear in his opponent before they even step on the mat. 

Sports these days is very sports specific and it most likely is hurting the numbers. 

Just wait till Freestyle state when then numbers drop below half of what it was last year.  My boy won't even be able to go for the triple crown.  Damn shame

Fabio Jr said it perfectly, the problem is the local freestyle tournaments are a waste of time.  The weekends after folkstyle state consist of some of the best national tournaments in the country and we won't be missing them.

If we really want to grow Greco in Indiana, then ISWA should require wrestlers to attend 2 greco tournaments before they can wrestle at state.  If they do this then every kid that participates will place.  But seriously the numbers will be even lower this year bc all the kids that won't be at freestyle will definitely not be at greco.  

I can't wait to see how low the numbers are this year.

I think Mattyb and brey are right on the money with the seeding.  It would not be that stressful to do it correctly since you have to wrestle the weight you signed up for.  All you would have to do is close the sign ups Saturday afternoon and you will have that entire day to do the seeding.  Also there is an option through track where parents can state if their kid has met any seeding criteria when signing them up.  With all this information and time staff can post brackets the night before.  If a kid misses weight then he is out and his oppent gets a bye. 

How many points does the wrestlers team get per round?
