My wife is pretty upset I will spend the next 3 weeks obsessed w/ High school wrestling. 

No connection to wrestlers and my father brother and I are making the trip 4.5 hours away. Making it our 24 consecutive year!

This past Saturday, the Munster wrestling team, and therefore I, went to East Chicago for the first leg of the state series.  Now, the past three years, the East Chicago hot dogs were phenomenal.  A couple of times, I might've gone out the night before sectionals or semi state and consumed a few beverages.  And the perfect cure for condition I was in were these hot dogs.  So, with great anticipation, I headed to concessions, saw the hot dogs were still being cooked in the quality 7/11 rollers, handed my money to the worker, and went to enjoy this hot dog.  But... They changed the dogs.  These new ones were big and plump, but the taste just wasn't there.  I was massively disappointed.  I was so disappointed that if Chris Jr. were only a junior, I would petition to get Munster moved to the Mooresville sectional and regional.  I'm not saying these hot dogs were bad, just, I wanted more.  4.5 slices of pizza outta 8.  I'm heading to Hobart this Saturday for regionals and will conduct a retaste of their weiners.  Thank you for reading.

This is my son Gunner Butt, and yes i posted his career numbers because that is what is says career record not high school record. I have kept a record of every match he has wrestled in a since he first started wrestling in kindergarten to include his pins, techs etc. When he is done with high school wrestling i want to make him a plaque with all his stats as a nice memory of all his years of hard work and dedication to this sport. Hopefully he will continue on in college if that is what he chooses to do.

The question is why the numbers are so imbalanced as well.  86 schools feed into Evansville SS, 82 into New Castle, ECC only has 73.  There is an extra Sectional worth of teams that feed into EV and NC more than the other Semi State.    Ft. Wayne has 77.  

So 3 of the top 4 teams at 4A team state.  The top 4 teams at 3A team state, and a top 4 team from 1A team state?

Definite no disrespect here, I'm a proud Charlestown Pirate alum that cut my teeth in the Jeff Sectional (w/ Floyd and New Albany).  I have many friends that have kids on the team and am still friends with many of the coaches in the that sectional.     But the depth is not there, right now, and I think they are in for a long day Saturday.

I'm with Kendrick. 
 
It's not a shot at any team in the Jeff Sectional or anything, the disparity needs to be addressed. 
 
Switzerland County should be at Richmond this weekend
Eastern back to Jeff 
New Albany and Floyd should be back at Jeff
Corydon, Crawford Co and North Harrison to Southridge
 
 
 

Have to disagree on this point, New Albany is only 10 minutes from Jeffersonville and Floyd Central is 15.  We currently go 1.5 hours to Southridge.  If it is only geography based decisions then this would never be the situation.

Not quite as big as Crawfordsville, but Jeffersonville has a large disparity as well.   Take out Silver Creek whose program is only about 5 years old, and the 2 sectionals are very similar.
 
Jeffersonville 2099
Silver Creek 913
Corydon Central 730
Charlestown 717
North Harrison 687
Crawford County 415
Clarksville 395
Providence 327
Henryville 299
Borden 214
Rock Creek Academy 176
New Washington 174
 

It's because all the teams pass each other going opposite directions to sectionals.
