Leave it to a Ratliff to mess things up 

Madison had their their first 2 MS State champs in their program’s history 
 
Brendan Bentz - seeded 4th - won 138
Garrett Deuser - seeded 3rd - won 175. G had a crazy semi-final match, was down 7-0 and won 14-10
 
Madison had a solid day w 2 more top 4 finishers in Segar Ralston finishing 4th at 132 and Grayson Hughes also 4th at 150. 

 

Man...glad I'm sitting w/ the cool kids in the premium seating!
 

W video advancements and supervising officials at these tournaments, I really like this idea.
 
It also adds to the excitement! 

Alright, so I have been thinking, I feel like this years state tournament we have been seeing some pretty outrageous calls! Now in the heat of some of these matches we all know that sometimes it feels like if there has been a negative interaction between coach and official that maybe that coach may not get the totally unbiased call in a close situation. So here is my proposal. 
 
starting at the semi state level, since every semi state has A flo cast video stream now, each team will be allowed 1 brick per wrestler for the entire tournament. Now instead of approaching the table to ask the official a question, you just throw a brick. In this event, just like freestyle, another official who has no involvement in that match will then review the scoring sequence in question and will then score that sequence as he thinks it should be called. 
 
Now I know what you all are thinking, well this would slow down the tournament a lot because us crazy coaches will be brick crazy all day getting matches reviewed. So here’s my solution for this, if the official does in fact score the sequence differently, then that coach will get his brick for that wrestler returned to him, the wrestles will be set in the proper position to restart the match and wrestling will resume. But if the official reviewing the video decides that he agrees with the mat official then that coach will lose that brick for that particular wrestler for the remainder of the day and the opposing wrestler will be awarded a point and wrestling will resume.
 
This will keep coaches from recklessly asking for video reviews, or in the case we have now, keep them from going to the table every 20 seconds to question a call.
 
thoughts? 
 
inunderstand that this will potentially add some time to an event, but I think we can all agree that an extra hour added to an event is certainly worth making sure that the kids are getting the best and most correct calls possible during the biggest parts of the state series!

You and Ratliff got that cool secret hand shake that lets you into the "Good Seats". I keep trying to get him to teach it to me but nope... he wont.

There's a youth movement in the Jennings Sectional, this SS will just continue to get stronger. 
 
Franklin, Jennings, Indian Creek, Madison, East, North etc will be bringing up some hammers in the next few years. 
 
#TheRiverIsRising in the South.... watchout!!!
 

My kid, Brendan Bentz, won 138 and his teammate Garrett Deuser that won 175. They just don't wrestle a ton in the spring/summer b/c they are both also really good baseball players and play travel ball March - August.
 
They gathered some hardware this winter but not in notable USA Events
 
Brendan - won Bluegrass Nattys, won Music City Brawl Nattys, 2nd at Christmas Sparty individual and was undefeated in team duals, 1-2 at IHPO as an 8th grader, 3-4 at MS duals in Toledo. 
 
Garrett - won Bluegrass, won Sparty, undefeated in Sparty duals, and was runner up at Music City, he also went 6-1 at MS duals in Toledo.
