So are we talking about ranking as a recruiting tool or determining who the best in the state is?  If your talking recruiting tool then yes i agree.  Once I got ranked I started getting colleges contact me and that was great.  
 
If we are talking about determining the best in the state.  I stand firm they don't matter. 
 
Awesome for promoting your program, awesome for recruiting for colleges since we are a one class state.
 
And TripleB knows I was a horrible wrestler so his assessment is prob accurate.

That last sentence is the dead truth.

You wouldn't have broken my top 8 in SS!!!

That's because the rankings gurus back then were not the greatest minds in wrestling like we have today.

News flash I was ranked in the power poll my jr and sr year and never made it out of regionals.  Rankings don't matter

why did Ross and Schoeff wrestle at an IHOP?   Did the winner get pancakes 😂 
 
good luck to both.  they are outstanding wrestlers 

Having spent a lot time with the class of 2023, I would throw another name into the mix - AJ Steenbeke from Pen HS, too.
 
Steenbeke, Purdy and Jones all played football this season, too. Hopefully any rust on the wheels to begin the season will soon be shaken off! 
 
I also dropped in a pic if some freshmen hammers from Indiana competing for ScorpionsDynast Team last  February at the 2019 Wildwood Duals in NJ. Sergio would've been in the discussion had he chosen to attend an Indiana HS. Good luck all!

Unless the form on the IHSAA site is wrong that is not what it states?

"The sub-7% male or sub-12% female, upon physician clearance, may not wrestle below his/her alpha weight."
"The wrestler named has received clearance as provided by the Indiana High School Athletic Association Wrestling Weight Control Program to participate at a wrestling weight not lower than his/her Alpha Weight (present weight) which is below the 7% (male) or 12% (female) minimum body fat allowance. EXAMPLE: Alpha weight 110 pounds; 7% weight 114 pounds. Wrestler may wrestle no lower than the 113 pound weight class."
 
 
 

from my understanding if he bodyfat under the 7% you need to just have the physician note filled out to allow his bellow 7% alpha weight to count.

rumor can anyone confirm either yes or no on this...But several coaches told me this weekend Coach Smiley was leaving Plainfield and heading to Brownsburg as an asst.

I antithipate a great seathon, but I'm curiouth how you think the Team State will go wif 2a?  

Sincerest form of flattery!

Rage on the Stage.  Man its almost like I have heard that event name before lol

Wood memorial event doesn't exist anymore.  They aren't wrestling this year.

Current Roster at 34.
Lost three kids from last years team.  One was a senior.  Another injured himself and then after playing football this year decided basketball was the route he was going to take, pretty good wrestler also could of made a run in the tourney.  The final decided he was going to focus on running sports
Finished the season last year with 20 on roster so we have alot of new faces, including some new football players with no wrestling experience giving it a whirl.  It ebbs and flows from year to year.  I have had classes were kids no matter what you did just weren't involved in sports.  Last couple of classes have had lots of competitive kids and we have seen our numbers rise.  Madison hovers around low 800's in enrollment.  So 30+ kids for us is a good turnout.  When I was in school here back in the 90's and our enrollment was over 1000 we still only had 20-30 kids in the program.  Goal is to try to reach that 40 kid mark this season.
It also helps when the coaches son is starting his freshman year and he can talk his football teammates into coming out.
 

Well they would loose because thats only 212 to 220  duh
