Thank you for the sentiment. Much respect to Logan and his success! Now on the matter at hand.... I think I am reading between the lines. I’m sorry but I just don’t see how Team Indiana and loyalty to a certain club or academy have anything to do with each other.
-
This is an interesting paragraph. Jmill are you saying that wrestling with Team Indiana has something to do with whether you have loyalty to a certain club or academy?
-
Yes! Especially considering there are big national opportunities this time of year. The other one we went to was St Roch last Tues. Quick in and out, two matches. Run very efficiently. Would like to see one of these on the Northside of Indy!!

My son isn’t in HS, but I will say Indy Freco at Southport was a pretty good tourney. He got 8 matches in one day. Not bad so close to home. All matches were on trackcast and the subscription was only $2.

Maybe I am misinterpreting the above post, but the MS team doesn’t have wrestle offs as it is. They select 1st and 2nd from MS State, and then down from there. And the weight factor is an issue, for sure. My son got 3rd this year and was invited, but part of the reason I declined is because I didn’t want to commit him to that weight two months down the road. I do believe matside weigh ins for MSS would help.

If we are making suggestions or giving opinions on how to ensure you get the best team to represent Indiana at Heartland Duals... I have a few thoughts. There are plenty of opportunities for Indiana kids to travel on a national level and wrestle top level competition. This can be done for a lower cost, and closer to home. Just about every high level wrestler family knows this. So there needs to be something more. Team spirit is the top thing I have in mind here. I took notice on Twitter that the Indiana team that went to Tennessee had that spirit. Gathering in a circle before the championship dual, slapping the mat and chanting. Kids were coming over from other teams to join in the chant! It looked to be a great team atmosphere. The kids looked inspired. Before that I would have thought simply naming a team “Team Indiana” would be the way to inspire kids to win for their state and have a sense of unity, but those guys did something right. I think it would make sense to find out what they did, replicate it, or try and recruit them to help with Heartland Duals next year!

Great dual tournament. Only an hour away from Indy, too.
-
This is a good point. ^^^ My son has said to me that wrestling isn’t cool at his school.
-
I should probably know this, but what is wic jr high?
-
Looks like he got 6th at Super 32
-
Yes, what a showing by the Haines boys. I didn’t see Landen wrestle, but Preston wrestled my son in the finals, and he wrestled a great match. Hat’s off! Congrats to all participants, it was a great tourney. Back to the room to get better!

Looks like Cathedral is sending all 14
-
Curious... what rationale has been given as to why it is done this way?
-
Logan Bailey from 106 to 132.
-
No, I would rather leave that to those who know better. I just couldn’t resist commenting re: Kenny. I will say.... I have seen his takedown defense and it is phenomenal If Linser is out there he can confirm this.
-
Kenny would definitely be high on this list, but he graduated from middle school about 25 years ago. Kenny is Kyle’s dad. Kyle is still in 5th grade, but he is definitely someone you should keep your eye on. Very talented kid.

Voted. Jeff’s a great kid! -
I was there at Cathedral when they played it before Perry Dual. Great atmosphere!
-
I emailed the tournament director with this question and he replied that they weigh-in wearing singlet AND shoes. 1 lb allowance.
