Roncalli goes 8-0 in first round including three #4 over #1 victories.  Now the fun begins!

Want to commend John Rushenberg from Bishop Chatard at 160. Lost a tight ticket round match 14-12 to Russell from Warren Central, who was called for a slam with 30 seconds left. Rushenberg appeared pretty dazed, but as a senior, wanted to finish the match and win on his terms. It seemed like WC’s fans and a few coaches thought Chatard would take the default, which was never going to be the case.
 
If memory serves, two years ago Warren Central’s David Pierson was slammed by New Castle’s Brevan Thrine, and Pierson took the injury default to advance. He then proceeded to win in the semis and finals while taunting New Castle’s crowd, then placed at the state tournament.
 
You win with class. You lose with class. You don’t take shortcuts. There are much bigger things in life than a ticket round victory, and Rushenberg showed he’s destined to do great things off the mat.

Lowery Roncalli tech falls Speaker from Kentucky. Speaker got 4th at state last year.

Not sure how we would have faired against 3A/4A schools in team state, but I think we could have ran with some teams a little.

Not sure how many people have seen this yet but it is really good, worth the watch. 

You guy may need the supplementary health insurance that comes with the ISWA State tournament so maybe make it happen there ?   I kid of course but maybe not... lololololol; good luck guys 

Yeah 2022 crown point is better than 2003 mater dei I think was the final verdict no need to ever have another team debate again 

I'd love to see a classed individual tournament sometime between the classed team dual tournament and the single class individual tournament. I'd like to see at the single class individual tournament an overall team champion like we have but also the highest point scoring teams by class & award them too.

Hate to come off like a broken record, as I mentioned this last week....  but I detest the idea that 3rd, 5th and 7th Place matches are so unimportant that they cut short the 1st period.  

it's not like this tournament has full wrestlebacks and time is at a major premium.  Let the damned kids wrestle a full match as if it means something!

Euson has been dominate this year, I would be shocked if he is outside the top 6

My son played baseball and we drove 40-45 minutes for practices at Grand Park and we also drove over 1 hour to get to Shirley's complex in Pendleton for baseball training.  Wrestling is NOT on an island when it comes to drive times/distance traveling.  No doubt it is rough on a family and sometimes it is impossible, but it is something that every sport has to endure.

The whole premise of your original post was to excite the CP/EC faithful and illicit a response so you could "debate" the legitimacy of the ECSS.  I don't mind people having opinions, although I do wish several people on here would express them a lot less often... I digress.  Most minds on this forum believes CP is the best dual team and tournament team in the state of Indiana this year.  No doubt Brownsburg is right there with them, and CG & Irish are a step behind.

Are you sure those are close to accurate???  I have been reading that Evansville has dominated for a decade, stop joking around and post the real numbers.

For 2021:
 
Champs
ECC - 3
Evansville - 5
New Castle - 5
Ft. Wayne - 1
 
1st through 7th (for my stats, everyone who makes it to Saturday counts as "8th place", so I can't add 8th place)
ECC - 25
Evansville - 29
New Castle - 31
Ft. Wayne - 13
 
So guessing PatParham had it right, after all.  🐵

There are 25 ranked wrestlers per each weight class; if all SS's were evenly weighted they would average 6.25 ranked wrestlers per weight.  Based on historical data, the rankings are incredibly accurate, an assumption can be made from the #'s which weights are going to be the toughest at each SS.
