  1. Looks like there was a 4th? https://www.trackwrestling.com/membership/ViewProfile.jsp?TIM=1710761157061&twSessionId=utkvhasbym&twId=1676343135 edit… wait a minute… must be a track error
  2. I got a vision that the hotdog looked like Akroyd’s character—the judge’s—skin tone in the movie. Wicked vivid imagery.
  3. I can see an argument where the absence of wrestle-backs add a brutal dose of reality in that sometimes life seems like the a spin of the roulette wheel. Coming up short in that type of scenario—like a ticket rounder who’s actually a “top four in the state” wrestler—that type of experience could likely teach good lessons. (Not sure if you’re being sarcastic, I haven’t read through a lot of these class wrestling threads and don’t know what your position on it is). But honestly, would I really want that experience for my kid? A lot of stuff will teach good lessons that I’d rather them not go through. The main reason for my position on wrestle-backs is I think it would add integrity to the tournament to truly find out who the best is. My opinion is my own and based on what I think is best for my kids. I respect everyone else’s opinion as well, and can see the small school perspective. This is just my .02
  4. With all I said, I would prefer single-class AND wrestle-backs if it could be made to work. So maybe “perfect” wasn’t the right word to use.
  5. I second this. And kudos to you for hanging in there for your kids the way you did. I didn’t wrestle as much as my sons have, but I had a brutal upbringing. The little wrestling I did helped teach me I could persevere and rise above in the face of hardship and adversity. My sons have a much more stable and comfortable upbringing, but I introduced them all to wrestling because I wanted them to learn what it has to teach. In that theme, I think the IN state tournament in its current form is perfect. Especially in an ever-softening world.
  6. One on our team that gets mispronounced often: Hosia Smith is pronounced just like Jose…. or Ho-say.
  7. There were something like 53 wrestlers announced in opening ceremony. Landon Childers (5th) from Delta and Kyle Howard (3rd) from Noblesville are the placers I know of. There may be a way to sort by state easily in Flo, but I haven’t figured it out.
  8. Fighting Irish Wrestling Club at Cathedral High School is a good place for him to start. Mondays and Wednesdays 6-7:30pm. For more info, reach out to Breyden Bailey or Fighting Irish Wrestling Club on FB. Or send me a DM here. Best of luck to you and your son!
  9. All these guys helped my son in addition to Cathedral coaches. Can’t thank them all enough. Bryan, Breyden, and Logan Bailey Brandon Wright Alex Joseph Brady Eppert Troy Patton
  10. Crown this guy poet laureate of Indiana Mat
  11. They ought to set another release time in the morning or at least say something. We gonna sit here all night refreshing?
