  1. This just isn't true across the board at all There are plenty of large schools that do not have these things - just take a closer look. According to my google maps, Ben Davis HS is 8 miles away from Brownsburg HS. Yet the recent trajectory of their programs couldn't be much further apart. All large schools are not equal - the "haves" are those programs where they have consistently built up a group of young wrestlers. The "have nots" are those where wrestling is an in-season sport and is an afterthought until the athletes are in high school. Out of 224 athletes qualifying for the state tournament - instead of looking at large/small school disparity, let's see how many "programs" are churning out state qualifiers. Now, maybe these are mostly large schools - but the point I'm trying to make is that people lump in all large schools together and all small schools - yet even within each group there are the programs excelling and there are many that are treading water. First, let's set the bar high - teams with 6 or more qualifiers! Then I'll add in those with 5 qualifiers, then 4, and finally teams with 3 qualifiers... 6+ Qualifiers 6 teams 46 wrestlers (20.5% of state qualifiers!) Now add in teams with 5 to those numbers 10 teams total (added 4 here) 66 wrestlers (29.5% of qualifiers on teams with at least 5 qualifiers!) Drop down another level, but still teams that are bringing 4 to state 17 teams total 94 wrestlers (42% of state qualifiers) Finally - still is a great season to get 3 of your wrestlers all the way through to state, right?? 29 teams total (12 added here) 130 wrestlers (58% of state qualifiers)
  2. Well, I think it is a great idea to offer this to the small school wrestlers. That is a shame that it is scheduled the same weekend as Frosh/Soph State - maybe that can be corrected in following years Like the Team State tournament, I like the idea of going the "non-official" route and thereby controlling the makeup and schedule of the tournament. It will be really interesting to see if this continues to grow - and to see some of the interesting matchups and results. Maybe the smaller schools finally have their event to promote to prospective wrestlers at their school!
  3. Just saw this listed on Trackwrestling. Tell me more about this tournament if you don't mind.. from what I can gather schools can enter more than one wrestler at a weight class? Is this open to all small schools, or only those that were in 1A/2A Team state tournament?
  4. Saturday morning = Fantastic rounds of wrestling! Some say we should have 2 or 3 times this many matches if we go to a classed tournament. Give me wrestlebacks and let's keep it as it is. Has to be one of the best tourneys across the country!
  5. Seriously, if anyone has Joe Caprino's number - or anyone else on the floor. If you could ask them to put on audio for Seminfinal Mat 3. Upcoming is 220 Carroll vs Critchfield, Veazy vs Buchanan, and more.... with no sound.
  6. Makes no sense that they would have commentators on the consolation bracket and not on the semifinals. Sigh... I just think it's human error. Would be great to have these feeds at least semi-professionally run. Good job by the commentators on all mats - I've enjoyed their comments during matches and excitement
  7. Can anyone text Joe and tell him to go un-mute Mat 3. Ridiculous to not have audio on for semifinals Or if you are at Gainbridge, just yell "UNMUTE MAT 3!!" please
  8. If I count right, 8 Crown Point wrestlers into the final 4. That's amazing - to be able to navigate the landmines of the first 2 rounds and still get over half your wrestlers through is incredible. Well done Bulldogs!
  9. Yes here's what I do on my laptop - go to TrackWrestling and login with your FloAccount. Go to the State tourney and choose Video. There will be a button that says "Live Video" - click that and a new tab will come up for Flowrestling that has the 4 feeds. At the top right, there is an icon showing 4 squares - if you click that it will ask you to "Select a Feed" for each of the quadrants. Click on the quadrants one by one, then choose Mats 1-4 from right below there to fill the spaces. Once all 4 of them are in place, you can just click on any of the 4 in your quadrant and the audio feed will switch to that mat's announcers. One note - sometimes the videos/audios are a little out of sync, so for example I was listening to Mat 2 earlier today and during a break in action they were describing what was happening on Mat 1 - however their audio was ahead of the Mat 1 video by about 5 seconds, so I heard there was a fall before I saw it occur on the video feed.
  10. 170 Quarterfinalists: Svantner (Valpo) Farmer (Ev Mem) Porter (Eastern) Braun (Cathedral) Baumann (EMD) Johnson (Norwell) Phillips (Charlestown) Buchanan (Jimtown)
  11. Braun flattens him out and I think Codei has nothing left in the tank. That's a big upset - nice victory for Braun he looked solid
  12. Braun hits a double leg for the TD. Khawaja up quickly and spins out for escape to tie it at 6. Braun snaps him to the mat and spins behind for 8-6 lead with 45 seconds left. Khawaja looks really wiped out
  13. Quick escape for Khawaja - a fended off takedown attempt and Codei has injury at edge of the circle. He's up by 1
  14. At 160 JJ Braun (cathedral) is in a battle with Codei Khawaja (Floyd Cent) - tied 4-4 starting 3rd period!
  15. 160 Quarterfinalists Lone (Northwood) Boe (Avon) Farnell (Maconaquah) Law (Columbus East) Goodwin (CP) Landez (Carroll FW) Conway (Floyd Cent) Myers (Bellmont)
  16. Agree with you here - he was doing great taking the attack to Goodwin
  17. 152 Quarterfinalists: Betz (Western) Jones (Warren Central) Ruhlman (Bloomington South) Rinehart (Zionsville) Goin (CP) Cicciarelli (BB) Glithero (Roncalli) May (EMD) Looks like maybe they are holding other mats until each weight class finishes up?
  18. Good TD attempt by Newman at start of OT and a close scramble - but Goodwin ends up on top with the takedown. Great match! Crown Point dodged a bullet there for team race
  19. Goodwin gets an escape - Newman circling edge trying to avoid takedown - Goodwin head snaps go behind to send it to OT
  20. Goodwin tries for the turn but cuts Newman with 1:15 left. Newman up by 1 after escape - and gets the takedown!
