  1. Shame is a weapon. There is no way to stop the finding and utilizing of loopholes and gray areas. The only thing that can inhibit such actions is inner pride and/or shame.
  2. Just came on here to say that I only missed one pick on this bracket, even through consis. Picked Linser over Sessa in match 206. Yes, I am a genius, thank you.
  3. But seriously best kid ever, we appreciate all the kind words!
  4. If Noah’s disposition matched my own, I’d have been MUCH more intolerable on this site, but let me say it again… IF YA DON’T KNOW, NOW YA KNOWWWWW
  5. Came here to say exactly this. A pillar of Clinton County wrestling!
  6. Something tells me that each coach and parent believes their wrestlers are being slept on and will therefore make some noise. Just a hunch. Unrelated note, I believe that all 3 Rossville wrestlers are being slept on and will make some noise!
  7. Best time of year. It's like we get 4 Christmas Eve's!
  8. Possible state championship preview. Two hammers!!
  9. Well looks to me like they were trying to grab at least one BIG school when they were building that sectional. They kinda had to skip past Lebanon, reach out and scoop up Zionsville. I can see the challenge they were facing for sure. Brownsburg would actually make more sense to pull into that sectional than Carmel if they were hankering for another big school there in that sectional. Again, it doesn't necessarily bother me. I can just see the original reason the question was asked. As for class wrestling, I believe I have come to the personal conclusion that more postseason success for more kids equals more kids leave wrestling with a good taste in their mouths and a positive view of their experience. Which they then pass on to their progeny and whatnot. As a tiny 1A wrestler, I will always take pride in my relatively meager accomplishments, my sectional championship wins meant more to me knowing I was up against the big dogs. I know I would have most likely been a placer in class wrestling, but it doesn't necessarily hurt me or make me feel less happy about my career. But I am also obsessed with the sport and frankly, kids are different nowadays. I know for sure we would have better retention if these kids saw more tangible success, however "empty" that success may seem.
  10. I think they are just saying, "Hey this is weird. Why'd they do that?" Not everything has to be some grand argument. Some people (self included) just notice failures in logic and it bothers them. Just have a rhyme or reason is all we ask!
  11. Quick Breakdown of the wrestlers making it out of the North Mont regional. Of the 29% of the Crawfordsville sectional, Zionsville makes up nearly half. Seems to me that if these two sectionals ere more "evenly" distributed with big and small schools, the final results going to semistate would be about the same. Some combination of Fishers, Carmel, HSE, Westfield, and Zionsville with some small school studs mixed in. The effect would be maybe seeding of the Zionsville wrestlers since they would have stronger competition at sectionals, and maybe a few more Rossville or Prairie kids make it to regionals and a few less Parke Heritage kids. Big picture, it is really a wash. Though we pride ourselves in being in one of the tougher sectionals and competing hard with these big schools, and we tell ourselves the same line, "Ya gotta beat them eventually," sectional weekend would definitely be less soul sucking and demoralizing if we got even one or two more out each year. Of course, that would be at the expense of 1a schools in the Crawfordsville sectional, but that is a sacrifice I am willing to make...

  12. Brb, gonna create a burner and start selling brackets...
  13. Please oh please let there be someone else on this forum that has watched I Think You Should Leave....
  14. Didn't even bother to bust out the can of cold spray?? Brazen!!
  15. Very good points! I suppose time will tell if Clinton is on THAT level. And you're dead on about the bracket,
  16. Just rewatched his match with Leavell. Impressive wrestler, my first time watching him! That being said, that seemed like one of those matches that a wrestler will just get caught up in a specific position and before you know it,the match is over. I felt Kyrel controlled a lot of the match and got away from attacking the legs. Unbiased opinion is that they missed a stall call against Clinton on the edge. Honestly my money is on Kyrel in a rematch, and it will be worth the price of admission and then some!
