I wrote this two posts before yours because someone else called me out on that quote too:
I'm very sorry. I meant it completely ironically and sarcastically because I feel very frustrated about our rigid seeding system. But irony is an irresponsible emotion to communicate in print because it's often unclear like this time. I would never in a million years think that either one of those guys would seriously not give their all to win a match. Obviously, a semi-state title in and of itself is an amazing accomplishment--let alone the additional consideration for next weekend. I'm sorry I didn't consider my words and my approach more carefully in the way I wrote it. Thanks for pointing it out since others would have felt the same in reading it.
This is a terrible take from someone who has a voice in our wrestling community. That was an extremely hard fought match. By saying something like this you are painting a bad picture of the sport of wrestling in Indiana. You should be embarrassed
This is complete false assumption. First these boys wrestled ALL OUT. A lack of points does not meet lack of skill, exactly the opposite. Some really great scrambles to keep the score low. Additionally, I know for a fact that they did not know about the Walker boy forfeiting until after the match.
