What a great match! Props to Cathedral and Zeke for bumping and giving indiana wrestling fans a great match! 

Some notables that I saw in the semis
106-Bollinger #13 in state and #3 in semi state delta over cline #5 in semi state Yorktown 5-4 triple OT
126-Boone over stebbins #7 in semi state again 8-2
132- da. Tuttle delta over b. Edwards Yorktown by fall
152- Kinnick Daleville over D. Barr Yorktown 6-4
in the finals
106- Bollinger over Keith cowan 5-0 I believe
113- Bowen Keith cowan over Cole Stuffel Yorktown 8-6 OT
120- Mosier over Overby by fall. Believe it was tied at the time of fall but an awesome match.
126- Boone Yorktown over Jett Cowan 8-6 OT
145- Toby Abbott over Rhonemus 7-0 I think
160 L. Abbott 8-0 over L. Wilhelm

What are some of the nastiest potential ticket round matches this year?  Technically we could get another Rioux - Schaefer match with a ticket to state on the line.

I have a question. What time will the finals match between Mater Dei and Brownsburg start?

Street was just rusty. He will be ready to rock this weekend!

132 is definitely more top heavy with the Big 3 of Bertsch, Thrine, and Wood.  145 IMO is a lot deeper though.  Blayne Daniels v Devin Frazier in the quarters is ridiculous.

Which ECIC wrestler will have the highest place at state this year?

Everyone knows the Mooresville regional is the toughest regional.  What’s the toughest weight class at a regional this year outside of Mooresville?

I know the Pittsburgh Classic won’t be 14 weights but it got me thinking... what would Indiana’s theoretical best 14 man Senior lineup be? This would including bumping up weights. Here’s my opinion below:
 
106 - Smith
113 - Dickey
120 - Miller
126 - Ruble (bumped up)
132 - Seltzer
138 - Mendez
145 - Watson
152 - Koontz (bumped up)
160 - Conway
170 - Baumann
182 - Buchanon
195 - Sollars
220 - Barket (bumped up)
285 - Whitenack

Does anyone know if RSN will have video coverage of the Carnahan?

Am I doing this right @GenHeavyHandz?

Anyone know the last time we had a Junior Fargo finalist who only got 7th place in the State?  Nathan Smith had a great run at Fargo and to think he got 7th this year at State seems pretty crazy.

As long as it's not Hayden Lee, I think he's fine. 

Every year there are a few 4's who beat a 1 Friday night.  Here are some potential ones for me:
 
106 - Krueger (CE) over Jackson (LP) - I know Jackson is on fire but Krueger has wrestled him tough in the past.
113 - Courtney (CG) over Leavell (WC) - Again Leavell has wrestled great all season but Courtney is very good and has beat him in middle school.
113 - Cottey (PM) over Egli (EMD) - does this count?
138 - Brown (PH) over Arthur (OH) - Arthur looked great at SS but this is Brown's 3rd shot to place.
170 - Dale (PM) over Kreager (FWS) - Kreager wrestled great at SS against a good field.  Prior to SS, I would have picked Dale.
195 - Eason (FC) over Khaoucha (NR) - EV was much tougher that FW at 195.  I could see Eason taking this.
220 - Viel (EC) over Clifford (CC) - New Castle was by far the deepest 220 SS.  Tough draw for FW who I think goes 0-4 at 220 on Friday Night.
285 - Donati (PE) over Shafer (CO) - Shafer looked great at SS but Donati comes from a rich program in Penn.  Not saying it happens but saying I wouldn't be surpised.
 
Again, notice this is "Potential 4 over 1's" not "Predictions of 4 over 1's".  What do y'all think?  Who else is on upset alert?

How would an all Indiana HS Alumni team do in college at the National Tournament? Would they be a trophy team?
 
125 - Hildebrandt (4) / Hudkins (18)
133 - Micic (2)
141 - Lee (3) / Red (6)
149 - Lee (3) / Red (6)
157 - Lee (6)
165 - Lee (14)
174 - Hughes (20)
184 - Parkinson (NR) / Walker (NR) / Laughlin (NR) / Fielden (NR)
197 - Davison (7) / Allred (NR)
285 - Parris (2)
 
I know Rooks is ranked at 149 but for the team, you can’t have Red on the bench
 
For reference, OK State is ranked as the 4th team now and they have guys ranked 1, 4, 5, 7, 8, and will probably have some true freshman still rising.
 
Could “Indiana” be a Trophy Team?

Yup, Joey Cline is clearly on my radar now. 

Does Yorktown get an assist?
