Asa got it done when it mattered the most... the battles between Ty and Asa were both awesome and gut wrenching as a parent.  Those two were battle tested when it came time for the State Series and it shows with their results.  Neither had any fear when we saw each other in the Dual, County, Conference, Sectional, Regional, Semi-State and State!  @TeamGarcia and I would just smile at each other win or lose because there is no better way to get better than to see that type of competition week in and week out.  Do I wish a couple of those red rings were blue, absolutely... but I am extremely proud of those two boys since seeing them battle it out when they were 7 or 8 in the CWA room, partners in MS and rivals in HS!  
Congrats to Asa and his family on an awesome HS Career!!!  Now, we're gonna prepare to flip the script when it comes time for the NCAA's!!! 😃

Now you know I how felt when Miranda weighed in at 106 Ty's freshman year at our Dual... I was like, well... let's get it on!  No where to run, no where to hide! It set the tone for the next 3 years, wrestle the best and see where you shake out! 
I'd bet we get 3 NCAA Champs from Hendricks County:
125 - Hudkins, 133 - Garcia, 141 - Mills (just don't tell the Red and Lee kids about our plans!)

Miss those days bro, wish we could rewind time do it all over again going all the way back to MS days when it was not so hectic . Actually watched a few of the battles on huddle a couple days ago . 2015-16 was some of the best back and forth wrestling . Asa would win one, next weekend Ty win. They wrestled each other 6x that year, I believe that Ty won (4), Asa (2) . 
Round 1,2,3,4,5,6 
Not going to lie that year I was worried, Ty coming off his Runner Up 106, I text you later that year in 2015 right before season. We’re going 106, I was thinking to myself maybe he’d say 113.... text ..... you said so are we. You said there can only be 1 State Champ coming out of Hendricks County at 106. I said damn it ! Laughed, then so be it . Lol. 
After they lose to each other they drop in the Rankings . I kept telling @ontherise219 i’d keep them where they started the year. Did he listen nope. Dropped them both cause they was beating the hell out of each other. I think he learned a lesson that year . Lol 
Good times & great memories. 
College match... ? Guess there can only be 1 NCAA Champ from Hendricks County to huh ?

Ty is red-shirting this year at 133/141, but 2 days before their first Open of the year at Virginia Tech he got banged up.  He's still recovering and may end up with a medical red-shirt this year.  He's been able to get a little practice over the past few weeks, but still showing symptoms of his injury and not fully cleared yet.  
Jeremiah was ready to battle it out this year at 133, down from 141 last year.  However, he sustained a pretty severe concussion around the same time Ty went down.  He's been recovering from it since and I'm not sure if he'll be cleared after break or not.  
At this point, Duke is FFing 133, so I wouldn't be surprised if the first healthy one gets inserted into the line for the Dual schedule.  Regardless, Ty is loving the environment and I think found the perfect fit of academics and athletics.  I'm excited to see what Coach Lanham continues to build in the ACC!

I just want to thank Joe and all the other people that put the time and effort to bring this event to Indiana and give our state the publicity it deserves on a National level.  All of our wrestlers were very impressive and put up a great fight against the top kids in the country (win or lose).  I appreciate Team USA coming to Indiana with a "nothing to gain, but everything to lose" situation.  Ty was able to capitalize and take out his opponent and has gotten a flood of national publicity.  Without all the work that was put into this, he would have not had this opportunity.  We found out yesterday that he was named the National High School Wrestler of the Week by TheOpenMat.

Congrats to Carson... very tough kid and well deserved! Good Luck!

Wow... we're very humbled by the recognition Ty's received this week.  Without all the folks involved with the Dream Team Classic, all of this would have never been possible.  While the recognition is nice, I don't want it to overshadow all the other great matches of the night.  Every Indiana kid out there battled their hardest and it's awesome that a week later, this event is still being talked about.  I think Brayton won the popular vote for this award and so we don't want to undercut him, but it's awesome that the Brownsburg program had 2 wrestlers in contention for this award.  Thank you to all the coaches who's helped him become the wrestler he is today.
