I guess what i am wondering who did Penn pick up from the rankings on 12/11 till now not that 2 and 3 seeds are much different.. Rankings on 12/11- 1 EMD 2 PERRY 3 PENN

Okay so how do we know they won't be out for team state.

Based on talking and results this is how I see it. Penn is good but has been beat twice. Warren edges out Penn for the three seed. EMD Perry Warren Penn Carroll Cathedral Avon Bloomington South

one of the Cathedral coaches did. I caught him recording all the county matches. I even took pictures of him. Calling IHSAA on Monday to let them know.

Not bad

Congratulations to Perry Meridian on winning 10 straight Marion County titles.

I remember when I first started to get involved with elementary duals 10 years ago, At that time the idea was to bond and help kids in your program. The kids on your elementary team would be on your middle school team and then your high school team. Today it seems that schools are bumping out their own kids and bring in kids from other school districts. I can understand if you do not have a kid to fill in a spot so you call Johnny and ask him to fill in but to bump out the kid that is going to grow through your program. So are we really helping our kids or just chasing trophies.

Give the monster a chance it was just dropped on him.

I guess you got me there. Fans don't vote just the coaches.

Brett Johnson definitely was the outstanding wrestler of the tournament. Perry had 8 champs. Warren, Elliott and Tonte all unscored on with Tonte and Elliott pinning everyone. Uk beating a top ranked number 1 seed. unseeded Korvah winning and pinning everyone till the finals. Not one vote for any Perry wrestler. But what do you expect when everyone in the gym is rooting against them.

Thanks to all the teams that was interested in this years elementary dual but we are now full. Team that are confirmed are: Perry Blue Perry Silver Brownsburg Westfield x2 Center Grove Terre Haute South Columbus East New Pal Southport Warren Central Franklin Community Bloomington South Tri-West Indiana Pride Franklin Central

Perry tried to start a league a couple years ago with a few of the schools on the south side but at the time i think only Greenwood, Southport and Decatur Central was able to do it. So what we ended up doing was friendship meets during the week with the beginners. Which was pretty good each kid wrestled a few matches and the parents wasn't stuck in a gym for Eight hours. As we all know the parents of beginners do not like to watch one match every two hours. I am sure we would like to get the ball rolling again if anybody is interested.

Perry is on spring break for the next two weeks so we will not have RTC.

Perry Had 28 medals with 8 champs, 5 runner-ups, middle school hasn't lost a dual in 2 years and only 1 in past 4 years. But what I believe is the most important is that we had over 80 kids wrestle the past two weekends.

I use to think the same thing. But how many kids wouldn't be able to make it. I'm sure there are a lot of parents that are unable to take time off of work. I know I wouldn't be able to take my son do to this little event in Indianapolis.

Round 1: Perry Meridian Middle School Blue defeated Franklin Community Middle School White 109-17 Round 2: Perry Meridian Middle School Blue defeated Evansville Mater Dei 72-36 Round 3: Perry Meridian Middle School Blue defeated Center Grove Central 78-25 Semi: Perry Meridian Middle School Blue defeated Avon North 91-26 Finals : Perry Meridian Middle School Blue defeated Franklin Community Middle School Blue 91-24

One team backed out for our dual this weekend. So we need one more team. So far we have Perry blue, Westfield, Southmont, Madison, New Pal, Mauer, Franklin Community, Hamilton Southeastern, Perry silver, Avon, Brownsburg, Mauer, Columbus East, Indian Creek, and Southport. If interest call Stephanie Warren 317 362 3654

It was a slow night last night so I had to share. After reading these I couldn't stop laughing. The funniest part was the replys people put because they thought he was serious.

21. The token chick wrestler on the all-male wrestling team has major issues that you cannot even begin to comprehend. Just let her be. After a few months of trying to prove "she's just as good as any guy", possibly a year if she's really hardcore, she'll get bored and quit. 22. If a wrestler has an injured leg and you see his opponent intentionally avoid shooting in on that leg, don't mistake that for sportsmanship. He's actually hurting the injured leg more by shooting in on the good leg. Why? Because when he gets a single and gets the good leg up in the air he's making the guy balance himself by putting all his weight on the bad leg. Oldest trick in the book to make yourself look like a good sport to the uninformed fans. 23. There are few things more annoying than a loud shrieking middle aged woman cheering during a wrestling match when the rest of the crowd is relatively quiet. "WHOOOOOO!" Alright JOHNNY! WHOOOOO!" 24. It's always disappointing to win a tournament and the medal you get is the exact same design as the medal you got at another tournament a few weeks ago. 25. You made a huge mistake by not taking advantage of the information the announcer said about you to the crowd during your finals appearance at that tournament. While everybody announced that they had a 4.0 GPA, or had signed to wrestle at this or that college, or dedicated this match to their parents, etc...you could have "Been recently nominated for the Nobel Prize and dedicates this match to himself because without him this match wouldn't be taking place right now."

11. If you win a tournament, don't "invite" the 2nd and 3rd place finishers up to join you on the 1st place podium. It's beyond condescending. You're basically saying to them "You weren't good enough to be up here on your own, but I'll give you permission to join me up here even though you don't really belong here." 12. Keep your headgear on after the match until you're off the mat. Have you noticed that the guy who wins is usually the one who pops his headgear strap off immediately after the final whistle or completely takes off his headgear while the guy who lost usually keeps his on? It's like some act of additional bravado after having won. Oh you say it's "uncomfortable" to keep wearing it? You were just wearing it for the entire match you hypocrite. You can keep it on for a few more seconds until you're off the mat. 13. Don't wear t-shirts advertising what "tough" camp you went to over the summer. Nobody cares or is intimidated that you made it through some "intense" camp. Besides it makes you look foolish if you end up losing to a guy who spent his summer sleeping in until noon and playing video games until dawn. 14. If a guy is wearing those old school tights (leggings) under his singlet then he's either the best wrestler at the tournament or the worst wrestler ever. There's no middle ground when it comes to guys wearing tights under their singlets. 15. If you get bounced early from a tournament it's perfectly ok to get the customary serving of extra large nachos with all the fixings and sit up in the bleachers and enjoy it with a huge satisfying grin as you watch everybody else still wrestling and struggling to make weight for the second day. It's one of the greatest joys of losing. 16. If the ref who's gonna be reffing your match is big fat guy then it's almost a given he's going to act like power hungry prick. If he's sporting the classic fat guy goatee (because fat guys think a goatee makes their double/triple chins less noticeable) then it's assured he's gonna be mega prick. The reason these fatties are colossal pricks is because (1) they're fat and (2) they achieved very little during their wrestling careers and now get a kick out of passive-aggressively projecting their fat frustrations on other wrestlers. The only good thing about having a fat ref is that if you put your opponent on his back these fatties will call a pin faster than they can wolf down an entire pie since it's super uncomfortable for them to be down on the mat on their huge gut for too long. 17. If you opponent is going through an "intimidating" pre-match warm-up (slapping himself all over, blaring angry music from his oversized headphones, doing air sprawls, etc) then you're probably going to beat him fairly easily. The guy's scared and he's trying to hide it by going through this elaborate routine to try to "psyche" you out. The guy you have to worry about is the quiet one who's just standing off to the side of the mat, calmly watching the match going on before you two are up, maybe just nonchalantly bouncing up and down a few times being his entire warm up. 18. Awesome singlet + Brand new state-of-the-art wrestling shoes = mediocre wrestler 19. Your opponent is unusually undersized for your weight class but is highly ranked even though he comes from a no-name school with a non-existent wrestling history? Prepare to be destroyed. 20. You're not listening to a damn word your coach is telling you right before your match if there's a hot stats girl or female trainer nearby.
