Columbia City will now be looking for 4 duals to replace these. I am looking to host 2, and visit 2.

I am looking for bigger, competitive, and well traveled teams. We lose a lot of door money with the loss of our conference duals, I am trying to replace that a little bit.

Columbia City wrestled Brebeuf last year in a girl vs girl dual. It was more of matching up like you would for a JV dual. 

The JC vs CC dual will be line them up and wrestle like a boys varsity meet. With some sweet entrances.

In 3 weeks we will be discussing match results! Super excited for this season!

Mise well discuss them now, looks like 1 match has already happened. But they used wrestlers from 2 other teams to tally the score.

How about McGill vs Cosgrove?  I doubt anyone wrestled 7x in the same season.  

VanDeventer from Bloomington North and Kleinhans Columbus North I believe wrestled 8 times in 2004. Kleinhans was state runner up with 8 losses, all to VanDeventer

I am disappointed that he didn't jump in your arms.. I really wanted to see if you could hold him LOL. Congrats!

Joe couldn't catch him. Leave that up to a Columbia City kid to do the hard work for Joe

I could not get my 4 school tickets for the 2nd session until we used a different ticketmaster account. All is good. Other than my parents for 2nd session were 2 and 2 as well.

Anyone getting an error that you exceeded your number of tickets without buying any? I have a feeling other teams are hacking and stealing codes

Also my 2nd session wrestler was not able to buy 4 tickets together, 2 and 2 separately.  So odd

Anyone having success using a school code for both sessions?  I have wrestlers in both sessions but only 1 code. It is not working

Y2 can you post by conference numbers? You held the NHC strong yesterday. I know NE8 had 6 champs but haven't went through the qualifiers. 2 of those did not win conference.

Believe it was 2002, both returning FW Semi State champs from the year before. 

John Sheets vs Pat McClain

These are strictly based on rankings. I have a feeling they will be in the hunt. 

Check your order....

Your Garrett education is showing. If you need a hint, it involves Garrett

I went through EI Sports and ordered mine in 2012. Ordered 25 sets then, have 24 pairs of pants still, and all 25 tops in good shape. 

Garrett Goldman Bloomington North 

I think they should have to advance like the wrestlers. Top 2 from sectional to regional, and so on. Of course voted on by the coaches

That’s cool and all... but... is that in the conversation for the toughest tourneys? With that said... I saw you at Disney... I like what your doing! Keep it up!!!!

The question asked what the toughest tournament for your team was, so that may be the toughest for that team. But you are right it's not in the same conversation with Al Smith, etc. But still a good little opener.

22 yesterday on day 1, a few physicals turned in, a negative X-ray from gym class(badminton) we ended up with 26 today and another 1 on IR. These are my lowest #s since I started. However saying that I have 1 beginner. And I'd say 23 or so I wouldn't hesitate to put in a varsity lineup if I had to. 

My last few seasons had been right under 40.  Ironically, my 2 lowest # seasons have been the years CC has been invited to the team state. 

Kids I lost- 1 sr because he believes he would be jv, another to IR (needs Tommy Johns surgery and not a ball player). 6 Jr's and 4 of them were suspended a year ago for either grades or school rules. 4 sophs including an ISWA State champ, a returning regional Qual, varsity rb, and a bowler.

Any tips on how to keep those guys, particularly the sophs?

Just received the call out sign up sheets from our middle school today

32 6th graders

21 7th graders

26 8th graders

We will see how many actually show up to practice.

Jackson Pettigrew of Columbia city last year 33-16 as a sophomore. Was down 7 going into 3rd period in first round of sectionals, scored 11 points to win in the 3rd. Then won in OT to move into 3rd/4th place match at sectional. 3rd, 3rd, 4th and defeated by B Lee on Friday night. 

Now he's 35-2 going into ss

Believe this is called E-Learning

I had 2 wrestlers with beards at ISWA State. They were told as long as it was not abrasive it was fine.

113 from the Carroll sectional is loaded aswell

113 at Carroll has 2 returning state qualifiers, 3 semi state qualifiers, and a regional qualifier. Plus 2 freshman that aren't too bad.

I know a little about DCC and Niles and think I have a feel for Penn.  I really look forward to those match ups. 

If you don't know Coach Hesson from Niles, you are missing out.  He is a true treasure of a coach and person.  Niles always has a tough nosed team of kids who are going to compete hard.  This Niles team might be one of their best in recent years.  Not sure what the score will end up, but it will be a fun match.

DCC is loaded.  I hope they can be challenged and continue to come back.  Even if they sent their second team in the future, they would do very well.  They are a great addition to this dual.  You won't be disappointed by them.

We have wrestled Niles the last 5 or 6 years at Penn. Plus the last 2 years at defiance Ohio tournament. Love to watch this team wrestle, they get after it. The coaching staff is a blast to talk to as well. 

NE8 has their duals as well on Saturday
