There were several head-to-head matches at the Spartan Classic which would likely change the New Castle SS rankings.  For example, Viduya beat Smiley at 126 and Williams beat Greene at 285.  I have placewinner names from Spartan Classic but not brackets.

Roncalli Rebels hanging tough despite forfeit at 106 and JV wrestlers at 132 and 152. 

Welcome Crown Point!  Remember, The Spartan Classic is at the Spartan Bowl located at the Connersville Middle School at 19th and Grand Avenue NOT at Connersville High School.

Good family.  Daniel has been biding his time at PM.  He wrestled in the Roncalli feeder system (St. Barnabas CYO).  His whole family graduated from Roncalli.

Best of luck also to the following Catholic Youth Organization (CYO) wrestling alumni who will compete in this weekend’s IHSAA Semi-State tournament at Evansville!

Avon

Mason Miranda (St. Michael)

Brownsburg 

Nathan Walton (St. Michael)

I believe that he wrestled in their K-4 CYO program.

Some final team results:

Carmel 244

Roncalli 228.5

Lebanon 211

Greenfield Central 191

Shenandoah 181.5

Class AAA Champion - Carmel

Class AA Champion - Roncalli

Class A Champion - Shenandoah

Ed Collier MVP - Ethan Smiley (Beech Grove 132) - although I voted for Maddox from Daleville (complete stud)

Most Pins Least Time - a Franklin County wrestler (didn't catch his name)

You can run it without Wi-Fi.

I have offered to pay for Trackwrestling but they did not accept.

We can always count on Connersville to show up late to the bracket party, not use track wrestling, and have turrrrrible brackets with no records attached!

Cannot use Trackwrestling - no WFI in Spartan Bowl.  

The problem is that there is no WIFI in the Spartan Bowl.  I was told last year that it would cost several thousands of dollars to upgrade.  Trackwrestling scoring would need to be done from the attached middle school.

I'll hop on.

 

To say this tournament is a blind draw is pretty comical. I have no doubt the AD does do the bracketing. This is how I see the tournament bracketing done:

 

December 26th, night before the Day One Weigh-in - The Athletic Director Brent Duncan (I looked it up) puts on his smoking jacket and heads over to Mousey's for a few cold pops served in those amazing small urinalysis-like jars of draft Pabst. Right before leaving home, he prints out DecBell's Top 20 Team Rankings and the previous year's Spartan Classic Team scores. After guzzling a few, he rubs his brow and gloats that last year's "blind draw" elevated his Connersville Spartans to one of their highest ever finishes. He even hears a Connersville faithful or two a few stools down the illegally smoky bar say, "It's all about the new direction of our program now". He smiles to himself, but knows he must plow forward with the annual shenanigans getting his beloved Spartans in brackets away from every Cathedral wrestler and any other wrestler that might be from a team in the Top 20. He searches long and hard for the Indianapolis Public School entrant (Broad Ripple in this year's case), who amongst the chaos of an out-of-town competition and holiday schedule will probably enter a full team, but only bring 4 kids. Jackpot! Connersville Johnny's first match! Forfeit and 4 first round points to the Spartans!!

 

If AD Sparty has one too many Pabst, he might even sling a couple top ranked kids in the same quarter bracket. He thinks to himself, we need some First Day fireworks anyway. Why not give people that drive all the way here down Highway 1 their money's worth. Plus, a barely ranked Cathedral kid might get knocked out. Win - Win. After eating his breaded tenderloin, he drives home and retires for the evening with visions of sugarplums . . . er, first round no-shows for Connersville wrestlers dancing in his head. The End.

The AD knows nothing about wrestling and is new to his job.  Pam Noble was the long time AD and recently retired.  The brackets are drawn by the CHS coaching staff with the AD in the room.  It is not blind but they do try to separate the top wrestlers (mostly away from the Spartans).

Looking at the last years results on teams with placers this is what I got also I added my own little predictions.

 

Class AAA.          Class AA.        Class A

1) cathederal.    1)connersville  1)Union County

2) East Noble.    2)Dekalb.        2) western Boom

3) Valparaiso      3) Roncallli.      3) Centerville

It will be very tough for Roncalli to place in top three of AA.  They lost a couple of studs due to transfer, they are VERY young and not sure if they will fill all weight classes.
