One of the top 4 semi-state rankers.

What if something bad were to happen? The tournament is at a school maybe schools need to have them. Not specifically just wrestling tournaments but maybe events in schools.

Thank you to everyone who has reached out regarding Preston.  Results of a CT scan and other tests have come back.  Nothing is broken and he will make a full recovery.  
 
As far as what happened, the Mater Dei wrestler had been winning the entire match.  An illegal slam was called.  It was not intentional.  Whether it was an illegal slam or not, I don’t really care.  We were never taking a dive.  Brownsburg doesn’t roll like that.  It goes against everything we believe in.  If I thought it was intentional, It would be a different story.  There is no doubt in our mind that it was just a result of two dudes trying to punch their ticket to state. 
 
It was pretty chaotic as all of this was happening as I’m sure you can all imagine.  Given that it was a neck/head injury, I wanted to give medical people access to Preston.  Once they had time to check Preston out, I took that opportunity to talk to Preston.  There was never any talk or consideration of taking a dive. Preston would never do that.  He was in a lot of pain and upset.  He has had a lot of adversity this season. He tore his ACL at IHPO and has been working through that pain and frustration all season.  I just explained to Preston what had happened and that I was going to forfeit the match.  I told him we were losing…and it would not be fair to take the trip to state away from the Mater Dei kid.  Preston agreed and said he would never do that.  There was no reversal of the call or anything.  I just went up to officials and said we are forfeiting the match.  
 
Whoever said Preston was walking around saw someone else.  He was taken out on a stretcher and to the emergency room.

Did your register run out of receipt paper?

A very deserved mini vacation prior to lots of sleepless nights

2 years ago I was at Indy for state from Floyd’s Knobs and my wife was 40 weeks pregnant then aswell. 12hrs after I got home on Sunday she went into labor!

Sounds like you really should have work on your calendar planning on that one. 

Last year I drove to Indy from Fort Wayne separate from my father and brother because my wife was 39 weeks pregnant, just in case I had to bail out at any time. Luckily my girl was born 3 days later!

40 week pregnant wife, 7 year old and a 2 year old at Semi State doesn’t sound like a good time to me lol. I go by myself for the piece. Baby or not I’ll 100% be at state next week. Sitter is already planned and been paid!

I think you could have made it. 

That Clinton Shepherd has had an okay season. I wouldn’t be surprised seeing him on the podium this year.

Thank you Y2! Crazy people say the “bracket formula” is random. It’s a 33% chance not a 2% chance. If it happens a couple years it’s not “fixed”
