Michael Berry

+ Easton Doster from New Haven

Jace Bullins from Wabash and Brayden Raber from Maconaquah. 8 times these two have squared off over the course of the last 3 years, some close and some dominate battles, all won by Raber. We would've seen more at conference, sectionals, and possibly regionsls this year had Jace Bullins not had a tear in his calf.

beat me to it

Pretty theatrical if you ask me.

106: Boyd 113: Dickman 120: Jendreas 126: Schaefer 132: Hockaday 138: Shepard 144: Huyvaert 150: Kresja 157: Betz 165: Cressell 170: Emerine 190: Henry 215: Clark 285: Clark

Mason has done really good this year, comparing to last year, I am really impressed that he beat Stits! It will most definitely be a good match between him and Beau. I think Betz is gonna win it all though, just an honest opinion.

Bet 100 on it then, I'll do a 10-1 gamble haha. Not sleeping on Day, but I don't see him getting past Beau. (I'm kidding, I don't want your 100. )

Betz and Brabender 2nd round.

144, Courtney and Huyveart 157, Betz and Brabender Ouch.

Out of curiosity, what are pick'ems for?

He's asking about Evan Miller.

The rematch between Tishner and Korrect will have to be one of the most exciting matches of the day imo.

Alrighty, I've waited all season for this, let's hear your predictions! I'll start, all in particular order. 106: Boyd, Moore, Ocampo, Fleshman Moore is looking really strong this year, I think he'll get Ocampo in a rematch! I am also gonna go out and say that Mora from Oak Hill may have a shot against Fleshman. 113: Bollinger, May, Salazar, Cooper May and Johns in the ticket round is gonna be a total barn-burner, and I'm excited to see a rematch between Bollinger and May! Not to mention that Hinkel and McIntyre are getting a rematch after a controversial call in the first round last year! 120: Korrect, Tishner, Raber, Douglas Tishner and Korrect tore the house down in the regional finals, with some close calls that could have sealed the deal for the match. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that Korrect gets Tishner in a rematch. 126: Mosier, Rowles, Waldon, Love 132: Fielden, Lisner, Bradley, Stuffel 138: Wood, Carter, Dews, Chambers 144: Invested 150: Hagewood, Tuesch, Galvin, Jett Tuesch and Riddle in the ticket round, ouch. They are currently 1-1 against each other, I'm curious as to what may be the deciding factor here. Elkins and Galvin is also going to be interesting, I wouldn't be surprised to see this match go either way. 157: Betz, Warnock, Davis, Russell 165: Invested 175: Leech, Farnell, Russell, Detwiler Farnell is on a hot streak here, him and Russell are going to have a close match! 190: Cressell, Blair, Daring, Currie 215: Hinton, Henke, Martin, Duffy I'm curious about how Martin will do against Hinton. A decision against the returning state champ from Crown Point is something that can't be ignored. 285: Hartleroad, Cruz, Coolman, Hillman-Conley Lots of barn-burners in the ticket round here! Hillman-Conley and Dodson will be good, and Wurm vs Hartleroad may be close as well. Now remember, these are just PREDICTIONS! Hopefully no generic pot-stirrers get upset because I don't have their favorites making it out. I'm pumped to see who makes it out of these brackets!

Shepherd having numerous victories over Leavell and Ison together.

Let's hear your predictions! I'll start, all in particular order! 106: Moore, Boring, Mora, Sawyer-May 113: Sawyer-May, McIntyre, Eldridge, Shannon () 120: Tishner, Korrect, Raber, Owens () 126: Haisley, Love, Gahl, Ousley Wouldn't be surprised to see Love beat Haisley in the finals, and I believe Gahl beats Ousley in a 3rd bout. 132: Lisner, Baldwin, Adkins, Bowyer 138: Booth, Kendall, Bumgardner, Barlow I think Kendall avenges Bumgardner in a rematch. 144: Liscano, Conner, Kling, Spencer () 150: Tuesch, Galvin, Cortes, Korba Clean sweep from the Peru Sectional. 157: Betz, Warnock, Burlingame, Kissell Burlingame will have a tough first match against Korporal, if he makes it through, I wouldn't be surprised to see him knock off Kissell. 165: Smithley, Trevino, Pleak, Simon This weight class is STACKED, Smithley, Trevino, and Pleak are all capable of the regional championship in my opinion, thus all 3 are possble. 175: Farnell, Miller, Hoover, Dowden () 190: Washburn, Cressell, Ringeison, Caudell 215: Duffy, Alber, Hiner, Cavasos () HWT: Hillman-Conley, Kinney, Fernandes, Sisk ()

Peru Regional is stacked at 160 with Trevino, Smithley, and Pleak. All 3 are capable of the regional championship. Not to mention Simon, who is also a returning semi-state qualifier.

106 Boyd 113 Dickman (Two 1 point matches with Rioux so far, wouldn't be surprised if Rioux somehow upsets Dickman.) 120 Jendreas 126 Schaefer 132 Hockaday (Expecting a 1 or 2 point match with Thrine, should they face off.) 138 Shephard (Numerous 1-2 point victories against former Champ Levell and runner-up Ison, gonna be some tight matches between these 3.) 144 Courtney (Potential rematch with Huyvaert at State, could go either way imo.) 150 Krejsa 157 Betz (I think he avenges Pellot in a rematch.) 165 Cressell (Lost 1-0 to Rinehart, you can bet he is gonna come back with a vengeance.) 175 Leech (This dude has busted his ass these last 3 years, I 100% think that he is capable of winning it all!) 190 McConnell 215 Clark HWT Clark

Literally has no teams from the Fort Wayne Semi-state and you're trying to take shots at Dwenger for no reason except for causing problems lol. Definitely could have thrown a crap ton of more teams on there both in and out of the Fort Wayne Semi-state before anyone would consider Snider a threat lol. (And in light of recent events, won't be one anytime soon lol. )

Bryce tore his ACL wrestling at 138 his junior year. He proceeded to take the 2nd half of the season recovering, then bumped up to 152 before the sectional. He proceded to pin Hunter Miller (the kid who placed 6th) and outwrestle Beau Brabender (the kid who placed 4th) for 6 minutes straight 7-5 at regionals, he made it to the ticket round and proceeded to dislocate his ankle, yet still managed to win the match and go to state. I think you should look more into it, you proceeded to try and slam a kid who suffered two nasty injuries literally in the same season, and one of them was right before the state finals. I guarantee you if he did not dislocate his ankle then he probably would have won the semi-state, considering he beat two different state placers the week prior. On top of that, he literally bumped up two weight classes just a few weeks before the sectionals. Did I not mention that during the Al Smith finals, he lost to Reese Courtney (the 138 state runner up) 6-4 after tearing his ACL in the semifinals? You literally need to look into the facts before you try slamming somebody who had some pretty crappy luck his junior year. I've seen kids who qualified their freshman year and not even make it out the other three, and they didn't even have any injuries. Yet this kid is 3 for 3 on his qualifications despite numerous setbacks his junior year.

Brant Beck is lethal, I was impressed that Sam Goin didn't pin or tech him.

You mean to tell me that this kid tore his MCL halfway through the season, bumped up two weight classes before sectionals, proceeded to win the regional championship with the torn MCL, and won the ticket round match dispite dislocating his ankle in that match?!?! That's a different kind of toughness right there, just insane!

If you're not a coach then stop acting like you're the tough stuff and keep your mouth shut when you get online, especially since neither Ethan or Will made it out. Take a look at all of my predictions, see which ones were right and wrong, understand that I'm not a total idiot and I still have an idea of who might and might not make it out. Never met a wrestling coach as disgraceful as you are, you are literally the only coach who had a problem with my predictions to begin with, they are called PREDICTIONS for a reason. You don't have to agree with them, but if you had a thing called respect, you would understand that it's just what I thought. Respect that, son, and maybe you'll get a cookie next time you prove me wrong.

You being the most powerful man on the internet isn't gonna stop me from making predictions hahaha. It's kinda sad that a coach (as a matter of fact, the ONLY coach in our Semi-state) with 34 years of credibility wants to cry online because a newbie doesn't believe in one of his wrestlers.

Thanks for holding me accountable to my spelling! Good luck this Saturday. XD

I just posted what I believe. You're the only coach who has had a fit because I didn't give any credit to one of his wrestlers, Ethan Smith. That's sad. I'll tell you what, if Ethan, Levi, or Matt make it out and prove one of my predictons wrong, then congrats, your 38 years at this has helped you prove a scrub wrong on the internet, you'll be the most powerful man in coliseum. Either way, I'll be happy for anyone who makes it out, and I'll be smilin and wavin the whole time. images.mp4
