@riley bettich is having some issues getting around these days...but on a better note I have a new Jeep!

Good job at IHPO kid. Let’s see your post tourney thoughts? Give us an updated list kiddo. 

CP definitely has a major chance to get that title this year. Great coaches and great wrestlers all around. I predict 6-8 state placers with 2-3 champs 

I'm Brennen's father. I received a text from a parent who's son attends Culver regarding this post and the comments made by AdamscoBuschhh. Just to clear the air you don't know me and we never met prior to the finals. I have no idea who you are or why you felt obligated to completely fabricate a post like this. We were in our hotel room between the break prior to finals and my dad doesn't even drink. Anyone that has been around my son knows that he is a quiet, respectful, and focused young man that is a hard worker. I truly feel sorry for you that you would make false statements aimed at a 15yr. old, its pathetic. My name is TJ Cernus, I'd like to know your real name as well. Moving forward, feel free to contact me directly so you can direct your false statements towards me rather than my son. Culver is not a military academy for kids with disciplinary issues. Any one with half a brain would already know this. If they did they would be gone in less than a month, the school has zero tolerance for this. It has military structure however it is not what would be considered rigid. Wyoming Seminary was initially our first school of choice last year prior to enrolling at Culver. We ended up choosing Culver because it was much closer to home and there were a few other families that we are friends with whose son's were also attending. We left Culver because the head coach was not what he portrayed himself or the program to be. There was no direction for the program. It was very unorganized, undisciplined, and there was a severe lack of technical coaching ability. Josh Harper was later added to the staff, he was the reason we decided to stay this past year. Josh was solid, he was intense, a good motivator, and he was there to make everyone better, he cared. Culver is an excellent academic academy and we were disappointed to leave. It was not an easy decision. Academics are our top priority and we expected to have a good balance with wrestling as well, unfortunately that was not the case.
1prouddad, thank you for your comment, we greatly appreciate it. 
Indiana puts on a great state tournament and we were proud to be able to be a part of it. My son and our family received an outpouring of support from complete strangers during the course of the season and this is rare. Indiana is very much like Ohio, the wrestling community is a pretty tight knit group that for the most part supports one another. There were numerous people who congratulated Brennen and our family after the finals that were genuinely happy for him. This will be an experience that we will never forget. Thank you Indiana. Best of luck.

I noticed 120 at East Chicago has 6 state ranked kids.
#3 Riley Bettich
#7 Trey Finnerarty 
#13 Danny Tolin
#14 Ty Haskins
#15 Vince Sparrow
#16 Jace Alexander 
 
Sparrow and Bettich will meet in ticket round, so will Haskins & Tolin.

After seeing Boarman this weekend for the first time and Littell/Bettich the weekend before, he’ll be hard pressed to beat either of those two at 120. I think he’s a top talent, but not to their level. And though Lee beat Mosconi by 4 and Warren by one, I don’t think he is a lock like a Rooks or Garcia. I think EMD is Top 5, but with multiple podium winners, not multiple champs. 

CP dominates 🔥

Burford/Mosconi match was really good. I was impressed with Burford the whole tournament 

The two matches mentioned above were definitely the best. Some other good ones were both the 170 semifinals. Fielden wrestled South very, very tough and Walker needed a last second takedown to beat Blubaugh.

Bettich vs Littell and Mendez vs Watts was worth the price of admission

Great match 

He’s winning a title... no doubt

Great finish in OT with Littell getting a win over Bettich.  Bettich almost had a TD and Littell rolled through and got the TD and back points.  Match could have gone either way.  
Not sure who the announcers are, but it was interesting in that they didn't really have much of a clue about either wrestler, only about the schools in general.  Also kept referring to playing and great plays.  Appreciate what they are doing, but a different experience with voices without a ton of knowledge.

2x Michigan State Finalist Riley Bettich goin to Crown Point

Manzona's accomplishments are above, but Riley Bettich is a two time finalist, a state champ, and two years left.  I think Manzona probably has better national accomplishments, but if you are just looking at credentials I think he is in the discussion for biggest transfer this year.

Wow had a tech in the finals last year. Looks like Crown Point’s going to have a really tough team the next few years
