I kind of remember the Dosters in  New Haven. They lived in town. Most  NHHS kids lived in the country or Village Woods 

Yes , thanks. And the minor sports don’t get the Hype like Basketball. 

I’m all

in at welsh Ryan  next year.

Baumgartner did go to my alma mater Indiana State!!!!  Can we get partial credit for that.  3rd most famous Sycamore behind Larry Bird and myself!!

I don’t know,  they had a very good gymnast that went there as well. Very storied sports university. 

He put his time in to be a good wrestling Samaritan. Dedicated individual. .

He can get that, but can't even get a mention in his local newspaper for winning. #pumpkinballforever

Another reason newspapers and reporters are getting 0 respect. And are fading into the sunset. Jokes

One of those Little Rock AA's used to wreak havoc at the Mater Dei Holiday Classic and had some battles with some of our best. 

All water under the bridge. But interesting 

How you found the tickets.  If you really want good tickets. Just go to the venue. Buy on the street. You may miss the first hour or two of the first session. Then enjoy the last 30 or so hours. But you will get access to very good seats 

Nice after season event. And the even better thing is the person and people that put in the time to tackle the event,And produce a great organized production. The first one that I’ve been to in a while. Ladies added makes for lots of pre production organization. Good job. Hope it continues. 

Wow, nice showing

Other thread says Mooresville this year.

Thanks a million, it is a good after season event 

Where?

I’ll be the first to respond. Cool, first response. And have fun ,  Second response. Keep us in the loop. 
I will tell you that I was at the same event when it was in Indianapolis. A young guy named Rulan. Etched his name. But the bigger story was my two seats were right behind Dan Gable for me he whole event.

Coulda, woulda, shoulda , that’s a lot for coaches to try and figure, let alone a twenty something year old. 
Maligned, I think I found you a side hustle come tournament time! All this name, likeness and image money being throw around. Now remember, where you heard it first. ( im easy) 8% per contract per team. Let me know.  I do have some inside on a few of the schools. 

Too much? I’m negotiable!  Your brains and by brawn $$$$$

I wonder I he would have been better off going all MFFs at Big 10s. He'd have had a 25 ranking and he could have communicated to selection committee that he'll be recovered finally for nationals after 3.5 weeks off. Now, he's put 2 more performances out there way below his level and given them clear reasoning to leave him out of the tournament if they want since they know he's hurt.

For Washington I’m not so sure he cares. I hate to say it.

Parity. Sorry, I'm kind of a spelling geek.

I can’t edit. Can you?

I’m still perplexed by Washington. Not sure he even wants to continue. Don’t know. Something.

Ha, no. I just knew Boarman is 7th in line with 6 spots available, and I noticed Cayden would have faced Teske/Van Dee with normal seeding of Teske--but I wanted to spell it out if people didn't know how the system worked.

Salutatorian then ok, got it. 

That’s a lot of if ands and buts, and always happens every year to more than one wrestler. I’m amazed at how you did all this placement diving to get to a conclusion! Did you graduate at  the top of your class?

Will be represented by at least 6 wrestlers, pending at large bids. Lee 157, Rooks 159,Fongaro 141, Lillard 165, Rooks 131, Willham 285, the most in several years. Great work by the coaches. Indiana finishing 12th in the conference Championship was not good, but it is more telling how good the rest of the Big Ten teams are. Hopefully Hoosier can continue to improve their personnel ,in their quest for more parody in the conference. 

This is the warm up round for the big event. A lot of these guys will see each other again. Good wrestling.

Wow ok, but you guys had me worried here! Haven’t heard from anyone on here in several days. I was worried if they dropped the sport of wrestling over there. I guess not. 

Bump

I’ve sat by him for several big events. He’s a legend.

Let’s say class wrestling happens, should small school wrestlers be allowed to wrestle up as individuals for the tournament?  I honestly think some would prefer that. 

Don’t think too far ahead! Lol
