Interesting topic and good read. Of course, most on here will cite examples of their Champs who didn't make a "hard cut" and point out that is the best possible route. 
 
Not many will have the guts to come on here and talk about the 1061/113/120 pounder who came down from 140+ to win his title. 
 
It is all relative ...

When a wrestler has beaten an opponent time and time again - then drops the match when it is under the BIG lights on Saturday night. I'm not talking when the series goes back and forth - I'm talking when said wrestler has beaten other wrestler every time (but it's always been close) - but then drops the most important one. I know this happened this year with Schaffer and Rioux ...seems like I remember there being a Floyd Central/New Albany scenario that was similar a few years back. I'm sure this happens quite a bit - what are some that pop into your head when thinking of this scenario?? 

Well…except BB and CP that is 😂😂

I’ll get thrown over the coals for this- and admittedly I don’t know much- but maybe, just maybe, the grind that is the Southern part of the postseason tourney (Moorseville, EVSS) had BB and CG ready to go (iron sharpens iron type of thing) 
And conversely, maybe the 3 week cake-walk of a postseason CP enjoyed had their egos a little inflated?? And that’s not a dig- I mean,  it’s only human nature 

That makes sense

I’m not from the area so I’m not familiar with what “clubs” feed into certain high schools- but the point remains

It’s not necessarily a “community thing” so-much-so as it is a CLUB thing. Crown Point just happens to be the lucky benefactors of these RWA kids assimilating under one school roof. 
 
Same could be said when Catherdral was pulling a ton of Contender kids
Brownsburg a lot of Red Cobra , and the list goes on…

I can’t- stupid paywalls 

Dude- why you keep bringing this up???   everyone on this board agrees the right/stand up thing was done. Why do you seem intent on wanting to take away a State trip from a kid who clearly deserves it??  
 
Coach Synder - hats off to you and thoughts /prayers for the young man.

Interesting topic of discussion. I think we all agree that to be at this elite level of wrestling, it goes beyond the high school room and into the Club scene...so maybe, the more appropriate question is, which CLUBS are feeding into these schools??
 
Crown Point - RWA (Region Wrestling Academy) 
Brownsburg - Red Cobra's ?
Center Grove - ??? 
Mater Dei - Maurer-Coughlin 
 
Just makes sense that these kids form a relationship rolling around all off-season together, and they want to be on the same high school team. 
 
Maybe this isn't the case...just what it appears from afar....

Not being from the Indy area - I wasn't quite sure who/what CLUBS were dominate in the area. Point still remains however...the State series is becoming more and more a battle of CLUB teams as much as it is high school teams lol

Henderson vs Haines ticket round….ouch 
 
In what world does one of them not qualifying for State make ANY sense?!? 🤦‍♂️

They’ve already wrestled twice this year (with Schaefer winning narrowly both times)- a 3rd match in the ticket round would just be cruel
