  1. It won’t devalue a state champ. When you listen to the announcer at the ncaa they say he was a state champion, not he won a state championship at the small school level. Iowa and Indiana both have 6,000 male participants, and Iowa has class 1,2,3 as one class then they have by there self 4, 5, and 6 state champion. I watch Brownsburg almost have year round wrestling. Tri-west hasn’t won a dual in over 10 years. We continue to watch the larger programs winning. EMD, Brownsburg, Indianapolis Cathedral, P.M. Warren Central and other catholic teams. I lump EMD and other catholic schools in because they can recruit wrestlers. I’d like for Indiana to be know for having strong wrestling programs like in Pennsylvania. We have had class football go from 3a to 6a. Also boys basketball has been 4 classes for some time now. Do I think IHSAA will change for wrestling, no they won’t. I can watch Indiana high school basketball on tv for a normal game all the way to state. I can only watch the finals of wrestling. I could pay 12 dollars to see one mat with track wrestling, which just got taken over by FLO. Don’t worry this is only one person’s thoughts and it will fall on deaf ears.
  2. I have enjoyed wrestling for years, but when are we going to get at least a 3 class system for state finals. We also need to have some sort of a wrestle back system. Other states have had these rules for years. The Iowa participants are within 100 people and they have a 4 class wrestling. I know Indiana doesn’t put as much effort into wrestling. The poor sportsmanship in boy basketball and football is getting worse. We have schools helping their, football and basketball athletes stay eligible with poor grades. Wrestlers have some of the highest grade point averages of any school sport. Also it’s about time the IHSAA supported girls wrestling. I understand that this has been all over the place, so as a wrap up. 1. Class wrestling so the smaller schools can get an opportunity to send wrestlers to state. 2. Wrestle backs so we can get a more accurate top 8 in each weight class. 3. Separate the top 4 ranked wrestlers. We have a chance where #1 and #2 seeds meet in the second round. 4. Girls wrestling being recognized as IHSAA level sport.
