Seems to be peaking at the right time. Paying your dues helps when the chips are down. He has had to do that for sure 

Best part of this conversation is, that both Howe and Micic are from Hanover Central!

Great news! Good luck Dylan.

Petrov boys from Hanover Central.

Great Hire for Hanover Central Wrestling!

David is a class act. I always enjoyed sitting in the opposite corner from him and miss coaching against him. Dave you are the man.

Does anyone have video of that petrov Campbell match? Would love to see that one again!

The match is posted in a thread called " best match ever". Started yesterday.

Hanover Central has a few:

John Petrov RSSR SIUE / D1

Paul Petrov JR  Bucknell / D1

Stevan Micic RSFR Nothwesten / D1

Tyler Scott FR / U of INDY / D2

Andrew Howe Asst. Coach Oklahoma / D1

Paul won both of his matches on Saturday, to get into the semifinals. That placed him at no less then 6th and qualified him or ncaa. He did not wrestle any matches on Sunday. Resting a nagging injury. Being healthy for the next step is whats important. He will be ready to go

I do not believe Coach Wadkins was making a negative remark about Jeff. He only stated that Jeff invited Wheeler last year to help get there wrestling program off the ground. I was involved in this conversation and decision. Why wouldn't we help a new program get of the ground. Looking around and watching college programs drop like flys and many  high schools struggling with athletic programs in general helping a new program fill its schedule in its first varsity season sounds like a good idea to me.

Jeff Brooks was an outstanding AD for HC. He is a great guy and my friend. Our new AD did a great job and is very supportive of our program.

I am not sure if Wheeler will be invited back next year . I am sure that no additional Porter county schools will be invited in the future.

To everyone concerned:

Stevan is wrestling in France this week. He is competing at the senior level for USA wrestling. He will miss our event at North Newton. The IHSAA has approved Stevan's wrestling in this event. He is eligable to compete in Indiana this  year. This competition has been on his list since he wrestled in Serbia and everything with the IHSAA was handled early on.

Great kid, great honor. Get after it Stevan!
