looking for the fort wayne carroll score from round 1

what was the final score of fort wayne carroll vs. fort wayne snider?

Perry Meridian guys can correct me if I am mistaken, but I believe that Logan Cooper qualified for state at 215 last season after spending a majority of the season on Perry's JV..

I've got it 7 matches per side.  CP gets bonus at 103, 140, 145, 215.  MD gets bonus at 160, 189, and 285.  Whoever gets the larger bonus point wins is going to take this dual..

103- Fuqua MajDec. Seng 4-0 CP

112- Saroff Dec. Goebel 7-0 CP

119- Pierre Dec. Burlison 7-3 CP

125- Henderson Dec. Harvey 7-6 CP

130- Mangold Dec. Halsted 9-7 MD

135- Fuqua Dec. Schroeder 10-9 CP

140- Tsirtsis Tech Lannert 15-9 CP

145- Roach MajDec. Riggs 19-9 CP

152- Flamme Dec. Weinzapfel 22-9 CP

160- Sims MajDec. Schurg 22-13 CP

171- Brandenstein Dec. Shrewsbury 22-16 CP

189- Boots MajDec. Langbehn 22-20 CP

215- Kral MajDec. Wright 26-20 CP

285- VanWinkle Fall Swope 26-26 TIE

Yes and then Overby of Harrison fairly easily beat Marciano in the ticket round.  And I am telling you that Denton is a more technically sound wrestler than Overby.  I don't know if Denton can beat Sarof of CP but unless Sarah has improved her strength and footwork to a tremendous level from last year, he will have no problem beating her.

Your memory is not serving you right if you think that Overby beat Marciano 'fairly easily'.  Marciano led this match until the final 15 seconds of the 3rd period.

Delphi has won, not sure of the score, however.

Rankings guy, has an alternate ever made it to the state finals?

I'm not sure if a Semi-State alternate has ever qualified for State, however, I do remember a State alternate who ended up placing (Matt Birner- Peru in around '98 or '99)

How did everything shake out between HN and Delphi at 171-189-215

 

Did Atwood and Evans wrestle, or did Evans wrestle their 215?

via Karl Hungus... Lynde over Evans 7-0 with about 5 minutes of riding time

Delphi wins the final bout and the dual meet 32-28 over Huntington North...

Delphi vs. Logansport up next for a trip to Center Grove

delphi kid takes a 7-3 lead in the 3rd period...

tie match 2-2 late in the 2nd period...

29-28 Delphi, 1 match to go

Logansport beat Eastern 51-27

Huntington North leads Delphi 28-25 with 2 matches left

bump

You're kind of mean Rankings Guy, but you are funny and smart.  I can't tell if you are good natured or not.  I think you probably are for a Sweatpants Nazi.

 

What are your plans after college?

i PM'd you.. and yes, some things i say may offend some people but i feel that i'm generally good-natured and most of the jesting is in good fun to keep the mood of the board light.

I personally enjoy seeing battle-tested Region kids with 5 to 10 losses reap the benefits of their tough schedules when they knock off untested kids from the Logansport Regional with shiny records 

I've got this year's champions breakdown as 4 each for Merrillville, New Castle, and Evansville and 2 for Fort Wayne.

I said at the beginning of the season and I stand by my statement 10 days out from the State Finals that this will be the year that New Castle passes Merrillville for most medalists.

How about doing like sectional and wrestle for 5th and 6th like they do at Jay County

I like this idea, though the IHSAA would never go for it as it would add 2 extra rounds if you kept the same format where the semi-final losers go for 3rd and it would add 3 extra rounds if they had full wrestlebacks where a loser in the first round still had a chance to take 3rd..

Merriville is the toughest now, but which produces most state champions?? Anybody know?

34 of the 70 state champions crowned in the last 5 years have qualified out of the Merrillville Semi-State.  That is just 1 below half!!! 

yes...whoever lost to the champ in the first round

is it just me or does anyone else find it dumb that the alternate is the one who was beaten in the first round by the champion?  most of the time this alternate would be a 4th place finisher from his sectional since most of the time the regional is won by a sectional champion..  it seems to me that the best way to do things would be for the regional coaches to come together and vote on who the alternate at each weight class should be, or have some kind of criteria like head to head between the 4 non-advancing kids, overall record, etc...  what are everyone's thoughts?
