I would go out on a strong limb and say even the CP team from last year wouldn't have had as many placers in this year's event. They added 100 wrestlers to the event to make it even tougher. Think about it, 10% of the new additions were Center Grove level wrestlers! 
 
They will make some changes in the event in terms of entries for next year. Not sure if there is another mysterious gym to add a couple mats to or not so I'd expect less entries but more scrutiny on them next year.

2004, Portage beat 9x defending champ MD at team state

I hear (or read) so much about what semi state is best represented at state. What conference has the best showing at state?

I'll repeat what I put on an other thread. I never seen him wrestle before this weekend, but Mr. Thrine you have a fan in Da Region. Congrats on a well deserved championship.

I love the authenticity of the commentary. Reminding us we are all fans of the oldest sport in the world. Thanx for your work this weekend.

That’s how you do it ! That’s how you become a Multi hundreds Thousandair Kingpin of Bananas . My Cartel Empire keeps expanding every year. 
 
Let’s give it up to Jake now a 2x State Champ vs Ashton a 2x State Champ , wanting a Challenge and Prove who’s the best 120 lbs . 
Gave us our $ worth and should be the featured match . Great Job fellas ! 
 

Hockaday vs Jackson match was everything  we all thought. 
But how about Ayersman doing his best Brands impersonation with the headlock 

I hear that he walks the earth like Caine from Kung Fu giving out sage advice to those young ones patient enough to listen.

This weekend, the most important lesson I’ve learned is that if you have a lead of any kind and don’t take a shot every three seconds, “YOU’RE STALLING!!!”

Maybe a timing call by the ref? Calls it as Graham pulls him back?  IMO, Graham should have been hit earlier in the period. 
 
Worst stall IMO was on Beck vs Clark. Had a cross wrist and appeared to be to the side looking to turn? Ref never called Clark at all and he was parallel most of the 3rd. Not very consistent.

I'm not a ref, or ever trained to be one. I think a lot of the calls mentioned were surprising to me. Being from the region I was used to stalling not being called as frequently as  I seen today outside of  our area. I'm not saying one way is better than the other I've just always thought (my opinion) that in the past  different areas in the state had different technics. 

My thoughts (however meaningless)......
 
EC Semi-State deserves a BETTER VENUE..  Compare to where each of the other 3 semi-states are held...  EC Year in and year out is arguably the TOUGHEST semi-state in Indiana up and down COMPLETELY but yet it can't be held in a facility that is of the same level?  instead we get older people working that think they are the police and yelling at parents whom are recording their kids from the corners of the balcony. threatening to have them kicked out or arrested....  COMPLETE NONSENSORY...  
 
THE REGION SEMI-STATE DESERVES BETTER...   ENOUGH SAID....   

It's Wednesday and this got boring.  

1. You say this as if I'm smart enough to know what I'm doing. 2. I'm lazy enough to know by saying  that, someone on this amazing site will show me a shortcut.😀
