1980 State Champions...Ready GO...Name 'Em All!!
Oldslicer replied to Coach Wadkins's topic in Past Discussions
Mark Scott was LaPorte High School's 1st modern day State Champ in 1980 at 132 lbs (in the op picture 1st row bottom right) As a sophomore was 6-10-1 and 2 years later finished 28-1-1 as a senior with 20 out of 30 opponents scoring only 2 points or less. He credits his Coach Chuck Ford with his success. 2 key moments for him in winning a state title were his loss in the DAC final which propelled him to working even harder each and every day and the Indianapolis Star Press who previewed the State Tournament in their newspaper. Every weight class had several individuals listed who could possibly become state champions except the 132 lbs preview which only stated "Steve Hunter of Franklin Central should have smooth sailing." Challenge accepted! Wrestled for Ball State but injured knee requiring surgery freshman year...redshirted sophomore year and unfortunately Ball State cut the Wresting program the following year. After college Mark coached wrestling 31 years with 28 consecutive years as Head Coach of Muncie Central High School. Thanks to Coach Wadkins for starting this thread!
