We have had two state medalists recently, both were among the youngest kids in their classes. One of them was 17 when he graduated, he is currently wrestling at the division 2 level. Our best freshman this year was the youngest on the team. Starting boys late has some major advantages socially, academically, as well as physically. I would argue that more parents should be starting their boys late if possible, the benefits mostly outweigh the costs. On a similar topic I would be interested to see how well these athletes do in college when all the physical advantages have essentially been erased since everyone has matured physically.

Rough day for the regional for sure, both qualifiers return though so the future should be less bleak for the regional.

Why not just try to take more kids to state beyond the 16? If we wrestled semi-state back to 6th place and took a total of 24 kids to the state tournament per weight we could reduce the problem of the ticket round death draw. Iowa has 3 classes and takes 24 kids per weight, 72 state qualifiers per weight. They are a smaller state that arguably has better national level success than we do, top to bottom. This would sell more tickets at the state tournament and increase the opportunities that Indiana wrestlers get because they have that state qualifier tag in their bios for recruiting purposes.

We need an official or two for a JV tournament on 1/3 if you're available?

If I had a dollar for every time I heard a parent cuss at their kid this weekend, I'd have lunch paid for this whole week. Apples and trees
