This was an incredible weekend of wrestling, and the Brownsburg Bulldogs and coaching staff earned it.  Congrats Coach Snyder and team.  Love competing and coaching against you guys, and the purple dogs deserve all the praise and celebration.  
 
Brownsburg and Center Grove showed up and competed hard.  Congrats to both of those great teams and coaching staffs.

All of these schools put on great events!  Thank you Coach Sandefer and Mishawaka athletic department for hosting the Al Smith.  Crown Point has been to the Spartan Classic, and  Coach Schaefer has always offered an invite to Mater Dei.  I love the variety our state has, and that there’s a holiday tournament for every team all over the state.  It’s not about which is the best, but what’s the right place for your team. Tournaments are a lot of work, and holiday tournaments are even harder.   Thank you to all those coaches and admins who host and organize holiday tournaments.

Thats a good question maybe gym size 
but I know Coach Sandefer loves wrestling and loves the Al Smith tournament. Teams come there to get state level matches and Mishawaka makes that happen 

If coaches would put in their rosters I'd put out some preseeds.

I predict the fastest seeding meeting in history of the tournament.

Best two I saw growing up were Joey Gilbert and Steve Williams in Illinois.
Best I have seen while coaching were Reece Humphrey and Brennan Cosgrove.

Decisive victory by a very tough Rochester squad in the final dual over a very solid Cathedral team (45-22).  Very good wrestling from teams from all around the state (Avon, Columbus East, EMD, Tell City, Westfield, Ev North, North Posey, Edgewood, Bloomington S, Laf Jeff, TH North, Ev Mem and Owen Valley).  The event was VERY well run and know they are looking to grow it in the years to come!

Teams Committed for 2023 so far...
 
Cathedral
Avon
Bloomington South
Columbus East
Tell City
Evansville Memorial
Evansville North
Terre Haute North
Lafayette Jeff
Owen Valley
 
The best summer duals in the State.  We have room for 10 more teams.

Why?  East Chicago does a great job holding the Semi-State.  

Just want to congratulate everyone on their awards, and thank Joe, Mike, and everyone else on team IndianaMat for the amazing coverage you provide for our sport.
