  1. Wasn't there are Female state champion last year or the year before....Yes I know it was Alaska, but given time Indiana will have our first female state champion. The girls are either catching up with the boys or the boys are getting lazy. We did have two female semi-state qualifiers this year, it's only a matter of time before one gets to conseco.
  2. If this is a religious choice then there should be no offense taken to it. I know of a few people that forfeited matchs to girls because it was a religious choice. On another note girls can wrestle boys but they should be treated the same. I only wrestled one girl in my career and I treated her like any other wrestler I walked on the mat with. I wrestled her as hard as I would of anyone, and her father actually thanked me after the match for truly wrestling her.
  3. The individual rankings that were also posted are determined a lot by how much national exposure a kid gets. Raley is ranked 11th in the country but not even ranked number one in the state. So we may have some wrestlers that deserve to be ranked nationally but since they don't wrestle in national tournaments during the off season they get no exposure.
  4. It was for us to...I didn't one time in my entire career and boy did I regret that choice later. Boy did I get chewed out.
  5. I know that some teams allow their wrestler to vote and choose if they want to shake hands with the opposing coach.
  6. Just my opinion but this kind of question is the problem with this website. The point of this website is to discuss our great sport of wrestling, not bash teams that work just as hard as the next. Yes some may wrestle "dirty" or unfair but calling teams out will never accomplish anything.
  7. What do you think this topic will accomplish? Just wondering.
  8. I am going on my 13th year in a row, and im only 25. For the last two years and next week I drive from Missouri to watch. Just can't get enough.
  9. 24 Adams County....20 Delaware County, Not sure thats considered Domination
  10. Is anyone broadcasting the AC team regional tonight.
  11. Don't know any details but I think I read somewhere that the score was 10-4 correct me if I am wrong.
  12. Will these matchs be on broadcast again like they were last year.
  13. Well hello everyone...I will admit this has been a frustrating topic for me. As many of you might know I wrestled for Coach McCormick and graduated from Yorktown. I do know that Yorktown is a great school, it prepared me well to go on to college, and helped me do well enough that I was accepted into a medical school and will graduate in December. I also know that Coach McCormick is a great coach, father, husband, teacher, friend, and a great man. For those of you that want to question his ethics based on one situation I suggest you truly get to know this man before you judge him. While some of you may find this situation unethical, remember this, a man?s character is not created by only one action, but many actions over many years. Let?s all ask ourselves a question; what is best for Cole Van Horn. Everyone only wants to complain about Yorktown, but why don't we sit back and think about or try to find out what Franklin High School or the Franklin Schools Administration did to Cole Van Horn and his family to drive them to make a decision to take him out that school. One other thing to think about, the Van Horn family was obviously unhappy enough to take their child out of school and place him into another. Yes it seems really fishy that they decided to send him 80 miles away but if you look at today?s economy and the rising cost of college what is one way to help pay for it. That is through scholarship. If Cole is the great wrestler that everyone says he is why not give him that much more exposure and possibly give him the opportunity to receive a wrestling scholarship. Yes this may be the wrong way to think and yes it may be illegal to transfer do to sports reason but with Yorktown being the academic school that it is, it?s pretty easy to claim you are moving for academic reasons. I would imagine that this would not be the first sports related transfer that was claimed to be academic. (If this is truly a transfer based solely on wrestling, to me it seems like Franklin High School was not a good atmosphere for Cole to be properly treated and educated). For all of you that are upset by this I can understand your frustrations, but my hope for this whole situation is that it helps Cole better his life. For those of you that want to say "no wonder you don't care your from Yorktown" I?ll let you know, I have no ties to Yorktown Wrestling beside through this website, I currently live in Missouri and will be coming back to Indiana, and I will do what I have to for my children to go to Yorktown and hopefully Coach McCormick will still be there to help teach my kids wrestling and many of the life skills that I still live by today. Good Luck to all the wrestler, I will see you at Conseco in a few weeks.
  14. Key word in your statement is "what I heard"....Do you know what you heard is fact. There are plenty of rumors that get tossed around in this world and on this website. Unless it came from someone directly involved in the situation I would not take it as fact.
  15. Y2 I think it is time for this topic to be locked because it is truly not going anywhere. Anyone that knows all the facts doesn't want to share them, so nothing is being accomplished besides hear say. Wrestlers, schools, teams, and coach?s are being bashed and reputations are being questioned with no facts to represent their arguments.
  16. Anyone know if Bevans won 103 and does anyone know the team scores.
  17. Thank You Coach....Good luck, Wish I could be there to see the guys wrestle.
  18. Any predictions? When is the seeding meeting?
  19. If you can not win without cheating you do not deserve to be on the mat. It is the coachs reponsibility to teach their wrestlers right from wrong when on the wrestling mat. My theory is that someone down the line had to teach them these things, "grasping" or checking someones oil. Both are disgusting. Coachs step up and stop teaching kids to wrestle dirty (no PUN intended). Learning to do the wrongs things now only leads to doing the wrong things later in life.
  20. Yes please can we get some individual results.
