  1. It's the fast food companies fault I'm fat, TV makes me violent, Public schools are why I can't read, I'm not a good wrestler because I go to a small school
  2. I think Kissel had an injury and they thought the match was out of reach already
  3. I wish they would cover more. During the Illinois match I was on tv for a total of 5 minutes because I was sitting behind the coaches ha
  4. Just based off of some quick reseach, at least the team part for Oklahoma was single class from 1922 to 1961
  5. They kick our buts in that respect.. Basketball is more popular, that movie Hoosiers doesn't help either lol
  6. I was actually just looking up the populations as well on Wikipedia. Maybe the reason Illinois, Penn, and Ohio need classes is because they have twice as many wrestlers if it follows the population.
  7. First off, lets give the college coaches some credit for realizing which states have class wrestling and which don't. I think they are knowledgeable enough about the sport to realize what placing in Indiana really means. Maybe you are suggesting changing other stages of the tournament but I have already seen several losing records in the brackets for semi-state. I would be wary of watering down the quality of wrestlers at each stage. In the article about Harper they mention how we have so few 4 time state champs because of our classless system. Changing to classes would weaken this achievement. I could go for class wrestling in the team tournament. The reason 3/4 of the champs are from big schools may be that 3/4 of kids go to large schools. The state champ should be the one who has worked the hardest and is the best wrestler. No reason a small school kid can't outwork a large school.
