  1. Reitz, Konrath, and Davison were all at Junior Duals.

     

    Obviously forfeits killed us in both cadets and juniors, warm bodies would have done wonders.

    You know what would have done wonders? If somebody wouldn't have let the whole "boycott freestyle state" ride. Tell me, Mr. Y2, would you let a thread that said "Boycott IHPO" stay on this website?

  3. We've been talking about this in the other thread. There has to be a way to cut the cost of this and other national trips.

    I agree, let's come up with a solution!  From what I understand, the IHSAA is weird about sponsorships, but they can't stop donations!  Raising money for an individual is easy, it can't be much more difficult for general groups, teams, clubs and/or associations.   

  4. There are countless college coaches at Fargo every year ranging from coast to coast; D I, II, III, JuCo, & NAIA.  They are interested in the wrestlers that are there, period.    They are interested in the wrestlers who put in the time, commitment and dedication to train and compete at Fargo.  Even the smaller programs are just looking for wrestlers that want to put themselves around the best, and compete against the best, AA or not.  Besides, even if you go 0 - 2 in competition, there are 10 practice sessions at camp and a half dozen or so at Fargo.  Heck, you can go get on the mat whenever you want at Fargo, there's an entire gym with 17 mats open 12 hours a day that is for practice only.  Wrestlers that were eliminated early, were getting workouts in during the days of competition. I had one of my wrestlers working out with college coaches one on one...valuable stuff.  Trust me, these coaches see these kids work and commit themselves to the sport and it carries a lot of weight, win or lose.  The big difference is, and this is where you get confused, if you AA there, you are almost guaranteed to be approached by the more elite programs. Being an AA in Fargo holds a much higher prestige than any other tournament, even Flo and Super 32.  That does not take away from an awesome experience for our developing wrestlers.  

     

    The cost is $1033 for both styles, and $945 for one, minus $150 for gear if you were on the dual team...not $1500.  That cost covers the rooms and three very good meals at camp for 3 days, the bus trip to Fargo, rooms in Fargo and three very good meals a day for 10 days.  That's almost two weeks of wrestling!  Overnight camps are $500 just for a few nights.  And, last I checked, a trip to Disney Duals wasn't cheap either.  It's a chunk of change, but I had no problem with asking for donations for my wrestler and no problem bringing it in.   People are generous, especially for a good cause.  This trip changes lives, it's priceless.   I'm not bashing the other "national" tournaments, but please don't take anything away from this one and discourage kids from going.  

     

    It's really upsetting to sit and watch this website control the communication on this topic.  Opinions that are agreed upon by the powers that be on here are spotlighted and showcased, and opinions that aren't agreed upon are simply deleted.  It's media manipulation at it's finest.  To hear that freestyle is for chumps is a prime example of the 800 lbs. gorilla that has been created to throw a wedge in the direction of this sport in our state #RIPHarambe.  If you want to grow the sport in Indiana, this isn't the way to go about it.  We must be united in this front, as long as we are divided, we will never be as strong as we could be.

     

    Hopefully people can read this before it's deleted.   

  5. Just watched it last night. Way better than the motion picture!  I got choked up a couple of times, especially when Coach Hump broke down.  You can totally feel the love those guys had for each other, and the creepiness that seeped through DuPont.  The compassion that Danielle Schultz showed for DuPont at the end speaks volumes about the kind of people they were.  Everyone must see it!

  8. We're getting rid of some old mats.  We've got 4 12'x 36' sections, two sided with practice circles, and three of the sections make a full competition circle on the other side.  They're old, and not in the best of shape, but there are no dead spots and definitely practical.  Hit me up if you're interested.  We're asking $400 for each section, but would take a reasonable offer from a fellow wrestler, coach or parent that sees this.  

    Here's my contact info:

  9. Don't let the kids step on the mat until it happens. Or perhaps the IHSWCA should somehow intervene and find out if this is true, and put on some big boy pants and stand up for the coaches and kids they represent.

     

    ...because the IHSAA and the IHSWCA always see eye to eye.

  10. Guy Henson is a very underrated hard working, tough, smart, and capable wrestler.  He should be much higher in the individual rankings than he is, but that will all fall in place.  Guy should win the weight class and in my opinion going away with it.  He gave Norman fits in the room for the last two years and is state place winner quality of a kid.  With coach Blevins in the room mixing it up with Guy I am sure he has only progressed!!! Good luck Guy we love ya big fella get it done!

     

    Congratulations to Guy on a much deserved county championship. The best part about it is that Norman got one too!  Both these kids have busted their tails in the room for the past several years and both of them have gobs of talent. The story of these two is epic, I can't wait to see how it ends. Love em and miss em both! They're both wonderful kids.

  11. Mr. Allen,

     

    I left you a voicemail at your office,  we are very interested! 

     

    The Wabash County Wrestling Club is a great club and the Pennington's do an awesome job.  I feel that, as the head coach at Wabash High School, I have to give my city boys opportunities.  The Apache Wrestling Club will be opened this wrestling season to be more accessible for WCS wrestlers...and, available to area wrestlers as well. 

  12. We have a late opening for a triple dual at Chapel Hill 7th/8th grade Center on the westside of Indy. The other teams are Lincoln Middle School and Center Grove Central Middle School. Wrestling starts at 9 am. No entry fee! Just show up and wrestle 3 times, no matter what size team you have. Questions or interest, email me at jacob.o'neill@wayne.k12.in.us

  13. The Indy West wrestling club is hosting an elite practice session for grades 4-8, experienced wrestlers only.  Sessions will be on Wednesday night at 6:30.  Must have a USA Wrestling card and come ready to work.  Practice sessions will be run by BD assistant Gurpratap Gill and at no cost.  We look forward to seeing some very talented young men in the room and getting them to achieve to their potential and beyond. 

     

    If you have any questions about the sessions, contact:

    Jake O'Neill at jacob.o'neill@wayne.k12.in.us or
