PM has a strong MS group, but not likely that any make the lineup. Our last practice had 68 wrestlers. We return, Cottey, Koontz, and Warren. Semi-state returners: Morton, Haggerty, Mckivitz, Dale, and McClure. Add to that group Toby Billerman and Ronin Hammond. We will be right with the best of them.

To all the people saying you shouldn't be able to wrestle after defaulting please answer this: If a wrestler is in a tight match and is injured due to an illegal move, why should he feel it necessary to continue wrestling at a disadvantage? Why should he feel he can't try to wrestle his next match at a disadvantage? I have coached for almost 20 years, and have never won a match defaulting. I have had a kid, getting drilled, get injured by a slam a few times and just gave the win to the other guy. I know you are going to say that some coaches or wrestlers take advantage of the situation just for a W. I just don't think you can make a rule that could possibly keep a kid from participating after an illegal move.

I believe there are 14 weight classes..

This was mentioned in the above scenario. The coaches voted to seed the kid if he is wrestling. The powers at be think that not seeding a kid is an appropriate punishment. They don't understand that if the unseeded wrestler beats a good kid first round there is a good chance to face a seeded wrestler in the consolation semis.

^ BG coach is not out of pocket as we were told at the seeding meeting that a wrestler did not make scratch weight, but the wrestler had a waiver to wrestle in that class. After further investigation it appears that the wrestler did wrestle in that class at least one time before Christmas, so he would have made scratch. His scratch weight was not a "qualifying" weigh-in. Still a bunch of garbage as many wrestlers/coaches go to a great deal of trouble making sure kids don't weigh-in too light or too heavy from meet to meet just to make sure the weigh-in is "green."

Maligned, Does this mean that the 3A and 4A teams will be having the dreaded bye round as well as the smaller schools?

I think a JV state would do just that. Only kids that didn't wrestle in a sectional. I think this would be an awesome way to get the non-varsity kids into the off season. I am not against the tournament. I just know that we do have folkstyle state in just a few weeks.

I like to play devils advocate. Before I post I want to say that PM will have kids at Frosh/Soph state. I really don't see a huge difference between this and what takes place a couple weeks later at Warren(Cadet Folkstyle State). Here are some cadet results from two years ago...the talent was there!

We aren't holding RTC at PM on Tuesday due to awards presentations and finals. Thanks to all the wrestlers and clinicians this spring!

We will be showing a little technique before wrestling tonight. We have a couple guys coming to show a little, but we will wrestle a lot. Continue to get better this spring! Starts at 6:00 tonight.

This week we have Coach Mauer in the the room Tuesday May 8. He had a pretty decent high school career, but we have seen Mauer/Coughlin in action once a week at PM for the past two spring seasons. These guys do a great job for sure! Come see what central Indiana is missing. Enter the main entrance and turn left at the first hallway to the room.

Big thanks to all the guys from Wabash that came to RTC last week. Tuesday we will have Indiana Tech and Coach Pompei. Pompei sent seven to NAIA championships and 6 were all american this year. We will get started at 6:00.

Was that before or after you cooked the ground hog?

Last week was some of the best stuff we have seen this year with Coach Alex Warren. Tuesday night we will have Wabash in the room. Coach Hardman will be at PM. I am sure a number of Wabash wrestlers will be here as well. Several came last week. We will get going at 6:00. Come get better!

He weighed in at 165 for the Dream Team Classic last Friday. He could have weighed 177. I thought Whitlake looked a little bigger.

Tuesday 4/17 Perry will have State Champ and IU alum Alex Warren to run RTC. Coach Warren is a drill machine and an oustanding technician. We have had a great room this spring with 45-60 guys. We will get started at 6!

Great competition in the room last week and awesome numbers with close to 60 guys. Big thanks to Coach Bradley and all the guys that showed up with him to help out. We had a strong group of young middle school age guys as well. This Tuesday 4/10 Perry will host Jake Sueflohn from Purdue. Coach Sueflohn had a career college record of 109-32 for Nebraska and was a 4x national qualifier. Coach Sueflohn came last year and was great. We will go 6-7:30.

We will be back at it Tuesday with Marian Wrestling Coach Steven Bradley. Coach Bradley was a 3X state champ and was a Junior College runner-up. The Knights just completed their 2nd season and had the programs first NAIA All American. We will go 6-7:30. Enter the main door and turn left when you get to the carpet.

This is a reminder that the Perry RTC will break the next two weeks. I will have updates later this week and next of our upcoming clinicians. Good luck to those guys going to some national tourneys the next few weeks!

This is a reminder that Spring Break isn't here yet. We will have Nick Hull in the room tonight starting at 6:00. Dave, you are funny. Why did you slow that down so much?

I used to do a middle school dual with New Pal at the U of I inter-squad. We would wrestle 8 or 10 weight classes. Each coach would pick four or five weight classes. It was like a chess match. You didn't want to pick a weight class that you knew the other coach would want to pick, but you didn't want to leave your best kids on the bench. We alternated choice like school yard picks. One coach picked and the other got the next two. This was cool, but doesn't fix the problem we are talking about. Coaches would pick the class that the other coach didn't have filled to get the W. Not bashing the idea either.

What a room last night. Didn't get a head count, but had to have 60 kids. Thanks to all the college guys for coming and helping out. Also, thanks to the kids that traveled from North Mont, Rushville, Elwood, and of course the guys that are close by. If we get too many guys we can use the little room as well so keep them coming. Next week we will have Indiana Pride Coach, Nick Hull. Coach Hull was an extremely successful wrestler in high school and college, but he is probably a better coach. Come get better next Tuesday!

Awesome room last week with kids from all over. We will be starting Tuesday at 6 again with Nick Walpole showing some technique before wrestling. Nick was a 4X state qualifier, 3Xplacer and State Champion. Nick was a National Champ at the University of Indianapolis. Come get better. Last week we had a competitive room with good groups of kids at all weights with 40+ in the room. We will have some ms age kids this week.

Don't forget to start your spring season right. I will update our clinicians as we get confirmations on dates. Tonight is the LeCount/Warren show starting at 6:00 PM.
