I can't put them in order but here are the best memories in my coaching experiences through-out the entire team state series.
2008 Team Regional Finals dual against Cathedral- Cathedral won sectional's and was heavily favored against us in that dual. So many crazy things happened throughout the entire dual to where it came down to a tie score and we won on the criteria, most fall's.
2008 Team State Finals 1rd down by 6 pt's starting the dual against Elk Mem- With 3 matches left we needed a pin, tech and major to tie the dual. Brandon Nelson went out and got the tech-fall, Greg Bell went out and got the major decision, and Cashe got the fall to tie the dual meet score and we won on criteria, most matches won.
2011 Team State Regional Finals against HSE- Again we were down by 9pt's and bumped Jordan Johnson up and put our back-up Jacob Henry in and he goes out and get the win to put us down 6pt's and JJ goes out and get's the pin to tie the dual and we won on criteria, most offensive point's scored.
2011 Team State Semi-Finals against EMD- We had to make history just to win, we pinned them 4 times, something that has never been accomplished in the history of EMD's program, we won on criteria, most fall's.
2012 Team State- Getting to watch as a spectator, on of my best friends and the godfather of my youngest son, Hank Carley (Asst. Coach Warren Central), experience all that team state has to offer from the parade of champion's walk, the wrestler's and Head Coaches introductions, to the thrill of coaching in the most electrifying atmosphere you could ever coach in!!!!
Team State was something special, every round and match is filled with emotions that you can't describe unless you coached or wrestled in it. I am honored and proud to have had the opportunity to coach in it 2-times. To all the Coaches and Wrestle's dating back to 1996 all the way through to 2012, Don't ever forget your experiences of Team State, each and every one of you were part of something very special, something that may never happen again in our lifetime. EMD was the 1st and Perry was the last!!
