Lucky for us another area wrestler attended the college he has decided to attend. And told his coach to go watch him as he was an upcoming kid. That coach traveled over to a tourney we did called IHPO and watched him wreslte a few matches. Basically told me there he wanted him. It all worked out , but if kids who don’t wreslte full time , don’t compete nationally all the time want to get out of the 4/5 state recruiting area - having that state placer next to your name helps.
-
I think if it had been 2 classes he may have qualified and placed back to back. I could be wrong on that - but had that been the case the “accolades” would be there.

Michigan Knows - my son wanted warm weather. We tried Arkansas , NC , Georgia. The only coach who even spoke to us was UNC Pembroke and coach “OT” was honest and great.

100% - They couldn’t believe me when I said you win or go home at regional , semi state and Friday night. I found this with pretty much every school we talked to outside of the Midwest belt.

Here’s the thing I have gathered as my son was looking to wreslte in college. He originally wanted to wreslte in warm weather and we reached out to many schools. Most of them don’t even realize the way Indiana is set up if they are not recruiting here. He took a visit at UNC Pembroke and the coach and I had a long conversation about it. He basically told me he needs more accolades. He was a Semi State qualifier at that point and a part time wrestler. It didn’t matter he had wrestled a NC 3rd place finisher in the summer to a 2-1 loss and beat another NC placer 3-1. Or took a loss to a NJ placer 4-2. He was just a semi state qualifier. Now he is a State Qualifier - I would venture to say in the class system he might have placed and the “accolades” would be there with his name. I like the oh oh we are tough to get to state machismo - but when coaches from outsid our recruiting area don’t see placers they aren’t as interested.
-
Very good info as usual. So basically 70% of state qualifiers /placers would be 2A schools in a 2 class system. That is staggering and puts into perspective how difficult it is for a School our size to compete.
-
Of the Placers how many were Large schools ? Over 690 students - How many of the 8 who lost Friday were from small Schools ?

So is my waistline - I’m good with it and it was Sugarfire BBQ. Enough said
-
I can say I didn’t go back Saturday until the finals. I sat in my hotel and went to eat Sugarfire BBQ and watched on track.
-
If that was missed what was the Cervantes on Dickens ? Much more blatant in my opinion.
-
Academies aren’t the only way. I can say the Diaz boys have never attended an academy. We have open room , we travel to other schools open room. Our open room attracts some very good guys from all over the area as do the others in our area.

Man those 152 Picks really got blown up. Like I said before sometimes 30 wins are 30 wins. Indiana Flash sent 7 of 8 to state - shameless plug !
-
Are you on the mic for this ? I still have that Bearcat shirt for you. I’ll bring it ! Lol

Might be the Best article yet ! Good Kid !

It seems everyone is waiting for the Gorilla Radio Podcast for your predictions.

Crown Point used 3 mats all the way to the finals. Wrestled all 3rd places matches on 3 mats then went down to one under the lights. It was done great and ran quickly. Hats off to Lorek and the crew for hosting a great Sectional and Regional.

Great Call today - Mike -
I actually prefer the video , so I can see the reactions of Joe and Mike when Folks make a smart comment or start a fight on Facebook. The laughter being held back on numerous occasions is quite funny - then again I’m bored and sitting on my couch doing nothing every night. So I’m easily entertained !
-
Late nights and long drives ! Dedication ! looking forward to them - until they don’t look the way I like. Lol.
-
Coach Diaz and I will Be there I’ll , Brock might have my number. Bolin has our numbers - we will help.

Open room ? I might make the trip with a couple kids if so -
