What was the score before petrov's fall?

If anyone could give updates it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for posting, i love seeing pics like that. Very cool!

I just started a multi-year construction job in the southport area...where is that located?

You can follow along on trackwrestling.com

is that his only loss in hs thusfar?

I was also very impressed with the perry team as a whole. I wish indiana didnt have the travel restrictions that it does because it would be fun to watch those boys face the top teams in the nation. What a special group.

I have to say that i was also underwhelmed by berry after all of the hype. But hey kudos to the princeton young man...he had a shot to tie up the match late until he tried the ill advised lateral with about 30 seconds left.

Yep that was his name. Also i hadnt seen lecount before and he looked really good as well. Who ended his run last season?

Hahaha best new poster eva!

Other than the elite guys (minus n boston), i was impressed with the 160 lb freshman from m-ville.

Im going with Farmer. He isn't the same wrestler he was 2 months ago...

Before Cosgrove, Alex worked out with Chris Fleeger on a regular basis as well....not bad tutelage. Good luck this weekend buddy!

War Griffin...you aren't done yet though buddy!

As of today 2000 tickets have been sold. This is such a great opportunity for Indiana wrestling youth to witness the next level. Several of the weight classes are flat out sick! Lets pack Mackey!

Check out Purdue's site for all of the pertinent info on the BIG Ten....the schedule, how to buy tickets, where to stay..etc. http://www.purduesports.com/sports/m-wrestl/spec-rel/big-ten-2011-championships.html

Goodluck to all of the wrc wrestlers this weekend!

With 32 athletes and four coaches, the MSU wrestling team has made room on its roster for one additional purple, blue and yellow member of the team. Indigo ? head coach Tom Minkel?s colorful hyacinth macaw ? attends wrestling practice most days of the week and has become a valuable member of the MSU wrestling family. Turning 14 years old in July, She has been around the wrestling room since she was 6 months old, and she finds ways of contributing to practices, Minkel said. ?She yells all the time, and sometimes she?ll get on you if you?re not doing something right,? junior 197-pounder Tyler Dickenson said. ?She?s a part of the team, and it?s interesting.? Native to Brazil, Indigo?s species is one of the largest among parrots, and it was once on the verge of being on the endangered species list, Minkel said. Once people learned how to breed hyacinth macaws successfully about 25 years ago, the population started to come back. Beginning with a parakeet, Minkel said he always has been interested in birds, which ultimately led him to Indigo?s addition to his family and team. ?I lived in Latin America when I was a kid for three years, and parrots are all over restaurants and parks,? Minkel said. ?They have a much bigger presence than they do here, and so I?ve always been fascinated by birds.? As Indigo is an exceptionally rare bird whose gender adds to her value, Minkel said he and his wife, Jackie, decided against putting their savings into a new car and ended up paying almost $10,000 for the bird from a breeder in Fenton, Mich. Since the purchase, her vocabulary has grown to about 15 words and her tricks include lying on her back and upside down and hanging from her beak. She also can tie and untie things with her dexterity with her mouth and tongue. Although her name reflects her colors, Indigo is a true Spartan at heart because when she showers she turns to different shades of green, Minkel said. Additionally, Minkel jokingly said her understanding of wrestling has grown, and she sometimes is an active team member. ?She?s here four days a week all year round, so she knows a lot of wrestling,? he said. ?Once in a while, she gets down on the mat and chases the guys around.? True to her species, Indigo?s main diet consists of macadamia nuts, which contributes to her weighing in at about four or five pounds, Minkel said. However, she has developed an unusual personality ? she loves pizza crusts and often behaves similarly to people. ?She says, ?Hi, Indigo,? and ?I love you,? and she whistles and sings and dances and laughs,? Minkel said. ?She?s got a great laugh.? Joining the Spartans (9-4 overall, 1-3 Big Ten) on a perch extending from a pull-up bar in the wrestling room at IM Sports-West, Minkel said Indigo usually is not a distraction during practice. However, when she is vocal, it?s welcomed by the team. ?That bird is the spirit of this team,? junior 174-pounder Curran Jacobs said. ?(She) hangs out in the corner when we all warm up and when we all wrestle. ?She roots us on, (and) I think she?s a great addition to the team.? Although Indigo is considered by many to be a member of the wrestling team, she also is a longtime companion of Minkel?s and a member of his family. She?s smart and affectionate with a great sense of humor, and she appreciates the Spartans as much as they enjoy her cheering them on from the sidelines, Minkel said. ?A bird like this is a flock animal in the wild, so if you?re going to have a bird like this, you?re going to be willing to make it a part of your day-to-day life,? he said. ?They?re social creatures, and so we are her flock, and so she has to be able to be around the flock.? --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
