  1. I think this really a parental decision, not a coaches. As a father I wouldn't let my younger daughter wrestle or play football, for different reasons, even though she wanted to. I was more concerned about injuries and the muscle difference in football. In wrestling I just think many of the hold are too "familiar" to be co-ed. I remember one coach (I think it was Matt Land when he coached Northrop) telling about a time when a couple of girls wanted to wrestle for him. First he had a meeting with the parents and had a couple of wrestlers demonstrate some of the holds that male wrestlers could legally use against females opponents. If the parents were OK with it the girls were welcome on the team. BTW - my daughter did make the all-conference academic team in wrestling her senior year, as a manager.
  2. The new open enrollment in Indiana allows any kid to transfer to another school without paying tuition. The school has to accept him (in case there is no room). This has no change on the IHSAA, however. If the previous school challenges the transfer and claims it was for athletics the IHSAA can declare him ineligible.
  3. David Palmer was runner-up at 167 as a freshman. Then wone 167 twice and 177.
  4. Wow, I need to put her in touch with my wife on the whole not complaining thing. Do you want her to teach your wife how not to complain or do you want her wife to teach Y2's how to complain? ;D
  5. Y2 is entering his last week of bachelorhood. Since the board members are spread over the state, I'm holding an online Bachelor Party. NO PORN! Just pass on your best advice about marriage for Joe to use. Here's mine: Remember that whenever you disagree, you are automatically wrong. If you ever discover that you are right, apologize immediately. Phil
  6. Found out Friday that Josh is now out of the hospital. The doctors wanted to keep him longer, but he couldn't stand to be in there. I was told he can't consider walking for six weeks, but amazingly he may still be able to wrestle this year if his therapy progresses well. You might want to remember his parents, Matt & Shelly, if you think of it. If you have a teenage boy you know how hard it is too keep them inactive when they want to do things.
  7. According to last night's Decatur paper Kyle is out of the hospital now. Josh is listed in fair condition.
  8. Amen. One reminder I like is that to the world your are just one man, but to this little man you are the world.
  9. Not yet. I'll see what i can find out.
  10. Three Adams Central Wrestlers were injured when their car struck a tree on the way home from school Thursday afternoon. Thankfully, all will recover. There's been too many young men mentioned on this board who have lost their lives. State qualifier Jared Schwartz was treated and released at the Adams County Hospital, but Senior Kyle McIntyre and incoming freshman Josh Schwartz (Jared's younger brother) were still in Parkview Hospital as of Friday. Not sure of their injuries because the Decatur paper didn't have any details and I got the news third hand. I believe Kyle may have a skull fracture, but not sure. Josh was the most seruiously. I've heard he has a broken pelvis among other injuries. Please pray for a quick and complete ecovery for these young men.
  11. I hear you get in with no questions asked if you're wearing an Indianamat.com t-shirt
  12. What you said is true as far as attending the school. There are no more tuition charges for students living outside the district, but the IHSAA still has the final say on eligibility for sports, not the school. I think fire77 has it right, as long as Cathedral doesn't protest the move he's cleared to wrestle.
  13. Will the IHSAA let him compete or will someone protest that he is transferring for athletic reasons? I know its not a valid argument, but they seem to look at hings on the surface and not really look into the reasons behind transfers.
  14. How many mats would fit on the field area of Lucas Stadium? The problem there would be prviding seating close enough to each mat to be able to see the action.
  15. Last one, I promise. A middle age man picks up his dream car, a brand new Corvette convertible, at a north side dealership and decides to try it out on I69. He'd gone a few miles when he noticed flashing police lights in his rear-view mirror. He looks down and realizes he's driving 80 mph. Instead of pulling over, he speeds up, but when he gets up to 115 mph he comes to his senses, pulls to the side, and waits on the state patrolman. The office approaches the car, looks at the driver, and says, "It's Friday afternoon. My shift ends in 20 minutes and I want to get back to the post. If you can give me a reason you were speeding that i haven't heard before, I'll let you go." The man replies, "Well, officer. You see, twenty years ago my wife ran off with an Indiana State Policeman. When I saw your lights in my mirror I was afraid you were bringing her back." "Have a nice day, sir." said the officer as he returned to his vehicle.
  16. Two friends are out hunting when one grabs his chest and falls over. The remaining friend grabs his cell phone and dials 911. "I think my friend just fell over dead, what do I do?" The emergency operator replies, "Stay calm. The first thing you need to do is make sure you're friend really is dead." "OK," the man responds and the operator hears the phone being laid down. This is followed by a muffled gun shot. "Alright, what's next?"
  17. A man goes to the doctor. After the doctor finishes checking him out the man says "Doc, I know I've got something bad, so be straight with me. How long do i have to live?" The doctor replies "Ten." "Ten what? Years? Months? Weeks?" "Nine....Eight..."
  18. WarrenDad - Sounds like you're getting AAADD like I have. That's Age Acquired Attention Deficit Disorder. I'll email you the description.
  19. Is this right? The only "penalty" I've heard of is that the weigh-in doesn't count as a valid weigh-in, so the wrestler may not have enough weigh-ins to qualify for the tournament series. Maybe you mean the coach would be suspended if he allows a wrestler to participate in the tournament series at a weight below his plan. I could see that because it is the coach's responsibility update the plan and make sure it is followed, but I think the wrestler would also be disqualified from the tournament if it is discovered he is under his allowed weight even after the sectional completes.
  20. Looking at that data I prefer the 3 class system since it puts Mater Dei in class AA rather than the same class as Adams Central There are a couple things I'd like to see if a class team tourney ever happens. One is the ability for schools to move up a class at their option. I think football has that option. The other is one I'd like to see applied to football classes, too. Whenever the schools classes are realigned I think all state champions since the previous alignment shuld be moved up one class for the next alignment period. It would only be for 2 years and may answer some of the public/private debate.
  21. Actually, a major decision in the championship match is only worth 1 point out of 5 total (20%), not three. There's no advancement points in the championship, but the winner scores 4 placement points for the difference between first and second. A tech fall would be worth 1.5 out of 5.5 (28%), and a fall 2 out 6 (33% compared to 50% in a dual), so the bonus points in that match are worse less than in a dual. The consolation match would be differentbecause there are fewer placement points gained from 4th to 3rd. There are a few tournaments around (one at Elkhart Memorial I believe) that score an individual tournament like duals. They eliminate advancement, bonus, and placement points and just award 3-6 points for every win like in a dual.
  22. If you go to any HS or MS team tournament Adams Central hosts or the FW Semi-state (which AC used to host), I'm the guy at the computer entering results and printing brackets/scorecards.
  23. I always like to go through the list of schools and see how many I could have seen during the regular season based on Adams Central's schedule. Some of the wrestlers may have missed matches, but if they were all available you would have seen these schools by going to all of AC's matches: Bellmont 4 Anderson Highland 3 Indianapolis Roncalli 3 South Adams 3 Adams Central 2 Bluffton 2 FW Leo 2 Warren Central 2 Angola 1 Ben Davis 1 Center Grove 1 Delta 1 FW North 1 FW Snider 1 Jay County 1 Kokomo 1 That's 29 state qualifiers by my count. I'm sure the Indy and region schools saw a lot more than that. How many did your school see?
  24. LOL - must be too many guys on the board to catch that one
