It's weird to me that people are focused on things that took place after the match, considering what we were just treated to. We have a lot of spoiled fans in this state.
As far as what constitutes classlessness, I've never seen Red do anything dirty. Ive seen him take on challenges that few from Indiana have equaled or excelled. I don't see or hear anything from Red that I haven't seen or heard before. If emd fans or fans from any other school hate such 'classlessness', all you have to do is beat him to shut him up.

Back in 2011, Doug Welch (152) would beat up on Chad Welch (160) everyday in practice.

Strongly disagree

Friday night at Maconaquah was filled with some great action and a lot of young ladies putting themselves on the line, but I wanted to share with all of you a photo I took that really hit me. 
 
Heritage High School hasn't (according to IndianaMat results) won a dual meet in the last four years and they are 0-47 in that time. But every time I see coaches Lockett and Martin, I am impressed at the way they run their program. They are full of energy and passion for their kids. I have seen it at home dual meets, at the ACAC duals and I saw it on Friday night. 
 
Heritage had one girl wrestling. One girl. Yet the entire team (almost, I think) and both coaches were in attendance and coaching their hearts out and laughing with their kids. This made a huge impression on me and I will be rooting for the Patriots the rest of the year. 
The whole team spent six hours in a gym to watch Amber Hoy wrestle four matches. 
 
Kudos to the Heritage team and to both coaches for the role they are playing in their program and congrats to Amber Hoy on her placement Friday night. 

#14 Perry Meridian over #6 Carmel 30-19.

Anyone have the match by match results ?

Austin Bethel is better than all of them. 😂

I'm not a fan of having to state your credentials to have an opinion. Of course, no one knows less about wrestling than I do, so that would naturally be my position. If you want to argue, lets argue. I will make fun of your arguments on occasion (and I did), but you don't need to be an accomplished wrestler to have an opinion on other accomplished wrestlers. I just like to argue. So ignore the guys who say, "Oh yeah, what have you won?" By the way, all I have won is an 8th place ribbon in a middle school intra-mural swim meet, but I do have eyes to see.

It's an IndianaMat crypto-currency. You get bananas for posting topics, results, etc. We are working on some features that you can do other things with them in the future...then maybe trade them for gear and such.

So you'd say your semi-state is as competitive as it's ever been? Regional?

A person I know, who wrestled a few years ago, loves to say that the wrestling talent is decreasing year after year. Do you agree? Just for fun, I thought I would put up the 2016 state champs vs the 2019 state champs in a duel meet to see who would win.
2016 State Champs vs 2019 State Champs
106: Asa Gracia vs Brennen Cernus
113: Colton Cummings vs Jacob Moran 
120: Drew Hildebrandt vs Brayden Littell 
 126: Brock Hudkins vs Jesse Mendez  
132: Chad Red vs Asa Garcia 
138: Brayton Lee vs Cayden Rooks 
145: Joe Lee vs Mathew Lee  
152: Trent Pruitt vs Elliott Rodgers  
160: Jacob Covaciu vs Jordan Slivka   
170: Drew Hughes vs Nick South    
182: Blake Rypel vs Carson Brewer  
195: Jake Kleimola vs Silas Allred     
220: Mason Parris vs Arthur Fowler  
285: Shawn Streck vs Dorian Keys   
This definitely does not tell if there is less talent but I think it is just fun to see who would win. IMO I had 2016 state champs winning by a lot!  44-6 to be exact
Edit: I realized after someone told me that I was being biased because I was comparing the kid's entire high school career instead of that individual year so my score got a little closer. 25-17 before Parris and Streck both get a fall so 37-17.
