  1. Not sure what the specific requirements are but Jason Wille at the IHSAA is the person you want to contact. His email is jwille@ihsaa.org
  2. He was there taking photos for this story: https://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/post-tribune/sports/ct-ptb-wre-cp-mc-st-0123-20220122-dqbjxktl4bf6bfkyy7hhbslaiy-story.html
  3. Anyone know what the sources are for the National Rankings here? I assume the state ones are based on IndianaMat/Illinois Matmen but unsure of the others.
  4. Here's an article confirming the Penn State thing: https://onwardstate.com/2020/02/25/penn-state-to-host-2021-big-ten-wrestling-championships/
  5. That's the biggest problem I have with the sport specialization crowd: the cost. It's not a fair playing field. Someone who may have the talent but doesn't have the opportunities that another kid does gets left behind due to circumstances well beyond control. I think it's great that kids can play sports year-round. I think it's terrible that money has become such an important factor in it. The commercialization of youth sports is a HUGE problem. Too many people just using it to make money instead of developing/growing kids. That's one thing I like about sports in a local setting, at high school or within the same towns/communities: they're usually better at developing a person along with the athlete. On a slight chance of topic, I think kids playing one sport year-round is probably not a good idea until high school due to the reasons others have mentioned, like burnout and the heightened potential for injuries. Once they're into high school? Have at it. But I don't think you have to play a sport year-round as a 10-year-old to be a stud in high school. Just be an athlete.
  6. From the Crown Point Regional: At 113, No. 6 Andres Moreno beat No. 2 Jose Diaz At 160, No. 4 Oszkar Kasch pinned No. 3 Diego Lemley At 170, unranked Evan Bates pinned No. 9 Marc Buehler
  7. Lake County Tournament will have a bunch of the Region schools' attention on Saturday. It's at Hanover.
  8. Portage is still waiting to hear back from the appeal: http://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/post-tribune/sports/ct-ptb-wrestling-notes-st-1220-20161219-story.html (Portage gets mentioned down near the bottom)
  9. About the only information I can share on this is that Perry Meridian's JV team beat Lowell, which probably means that they won the whole thing. did the same last year. Also know that both Cummings and Hughes for Lowell went 5-0.
