As I say every year, unfortunately the majority of our guys will drop in the ranking during the season due to not having many nationally ranked opponents or major tournaments to get attention.  At best a few wrestlers may stay in their position based on a very solid showing during the off-season and pre-season events. 
Some teams attending out of state duals may help a couple wrestler find a ranked opponent, but the attention getter are usually the tournaments.  As mentioned in a different post it’s veey difficult to find a high profile out of state tournament to  enter since we would not be allowd to face any opponent who came from outside our travel radius.

Walker back in too!!! 
Carson Brewer with 7 wins over 6 ranked kids in the last year and a half. Only unranked loss this past year was Friday night!!! I think that if he has a good showing at Brecksville in a couple weeks, he could get back in.... hopefully!
Congrats to Asa. 
Hopefully all our guys can stay in there for the rest of the season! 

Asa Garcia back in the National Rankings at 132lbs.  #15
 
Well deserved.

Congratulations to Carson Brewer from Avon for signing with Ohio. He is projected to wrestle 184.

Speaking of prior Indiana notables... Colten Drousias is looking really good in the Ironman today.  He has number 1 ranked kid in the country Richie Figs in the quarters.  #travelrestrictionsuck

Should be some great match ups for sure next Saturday no matter how the pools shake out....

Hoping these pools are not set in stone. Was really hoping to see Crown Point vs Yorktown, which could have produced preseason magazine #1 Mendez vs #1 Curtis at 126. 

NEVER stop lifting!!!! Always work to become a better athlete

When my son was in high school he took weight lifting class all 4 years.  This way he got his lifting in during school hours every day.  During in season he focused mostly on doing lighter weight and more reps.  On meet days, he typically wouldn't lift at all.  I recommend for all athletes to take advantage of this class if offered at your school and your schedules can allow it to happen.  In the spring about 3 weeks to a month after season was over he had increased his strength and his max greatly each year after he wasn't worried about maintaining weight.  I believe that he didn't lose strength and that it in fact increased because he continued his weight lifting during season.  Just my 2 cents.......
