TripleB reacted to Darrick Snyder in Preston Haines
Thank you to everyone who has reached out regarding Preston. Results of a CT scan and other tests have come back. Nothing is broken and he will make a full recovery.
As far as what happened, the Mater Dei wrestler had been winning the entire match. An illegal slam was called. It was not intentional. Whether it was an illegal slam or not, I don’t really care. We were never taking a dive. Brownsburg doesn’t roll like that. It goes against everything we believe in. If I thought it was intentional, It would be a different story. There is no doubt in our mind that it was just a result of two dudes trying to punch their ticket to state.
It was pretty chaotic as all of this was happening as I’m sure you can all imagine. Given that it was a neck/head injury, I wanted to give medical people access to Preston. Once they had time to check Preston out, I took that opportunity to talk to Preston. There was never any talk or consideration of taking a dive. Preston would never do that. He was in a lot of pain and upset. He has had a lot of adversity this season. He tore his ACL at IHPO and has been working through that pain and frustration all season. I just explained to Preston what had happened and that I was going to forfeit the match. I told him we were losing…and it would not be fair to take the trip to state away from the Mater Dei kid. Preston agreed and said he would never do that. There was no reversal of the call or anything. I just went up to officials and said we are forfeiting the match.
Whoever said Preston was walking around saw someone else. He was taken out on a stretcher and to the emergency room.

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.

Great write up @TripleB 9 of 10 ⭐️
1 error in my expert eyes of all #TheCounty wrestlers coming and going .
144 isn’t a Ford LOCK .
Two great wrestlers going at in multiple weeks, might see 3rd match at State .
Reasoning… that match was 1-2 seconds from going into OT and who knows the outcome . It was tied 1-1 for 99% of that match . It was real tight situation. I watched it. Both wrestlers had potential takedowns on each other if the ref didn’t call potential danger with knees . Glad we should see a rematch in the finals at Semi State .
Just my 2 cents, 1 cent, .50 of a cent, .25 of a cent .
I’m not a
