Brock is still at Northern Illinois. I believe he redshirt this year 

@UncleJimmy.........  I am at work now and everyone is looking at me in my cubicle because I am laughing out of control........... these are some of the funniest posts I have ever read. 
First off @dogsEAT you have issues, some are funny and have given me quite the chuckle and some need serious therapeutic help I think.  Who are you I have to know please identify yourself.
Second, Uncle Jimmy that was pure gold buddy, pure gold for sure.  I also like your reference to the "dislike" button which I truly believe needs to be added at next update for sure.  To answer your question however it could not be my son because per his mothers recent review of his search history on his phone he does not visit IN Mat unless its now listed as big boobs, big butts, stuff inside of other stuff (censored) and most recent how to shave below the belt.
Great stuff message board people, thanks

Slika is very tough on top as evident in his 1-0 win over McIntosh in the quarter-finals.
Not knowing the situation or strategy, Hunt was going to need a takedown to win no matter what most likely. If he goes on bottom, it will take a lot of effort and energy to get out. Maybe it takes 20 seconds, maybe it takes 1:59, maybe he doesn't get out. Even if he gets an escape he will still need a takedown to win and would have limited time in regulation to do that.
With that said giving himself two minutes to get a takedown or maybe a couple stalling calls to tie it up is probably more likely than getting that escape and then only having a minute to get a takedown in the first overtime.

Dear 138 pound weight class at state finals,
 
Congrats to all of you, lots of fierce competitors, and you should all be proud! Wrestling is the ultimate teacher of life lessons, so learn what you can from your experience!
 
Kris Rumph
You are a great wrestler and competitor and your interview showed some great character.  You have overcome a lot in life and I hope you understand that your wrestling achievements can transfer to anything you chose to pursue in life.  The Melloh family will look forward to seeing good things for you in the future, and will say a special prayer for Kris Rumph today at church.  Looking forward to rooting for you, not against you!  
Blake Mulkey
You are an awesome wrestler. Blake, you have a great wrestling future,  and we wish you the best.  Sometimes things don’t go your way, it will make you stronger if you let it.
Dawson Combest
We wish you the best at Uindy.  It truly seems like yesterday that you and Zach were battling it out for ISWA state finals.  I miss those days already.  Uindy is getting a good one and we know you will do great in wrestling and school.  Count your blessings son, you have an awesome support group with Columbus East wrestling family!  That’s a good group!  I will always hold Coach Trapp in high regard..... I saw how much he did for you guys with the youth program. What a great guy and mentor!
Lastly, to my son, Zach Melloh
With tears of pride, I want to tell you that I love you and I am so proud of you.  My sadness only comes from knowing this chapter is over.  I didn’t appreciate the ride like I should have while I was living it.......through wrestling, you have helped us grow as a family and expand our faith.  So few people know what you have been through to get to where you were yesterday. But God does and your family does, and we are proud to call you our son and your siblings are proud of their brother.  Part of trying to live a Christ centered life means that sometimes the target on your back gets bigger.  It’s ok, keep fighting the good fight.  Keep grinding and doing the right things in life.  With a heart full of pride for the young man you have become, looking forward to the next chapter. 
 
Your biggest fan club,
Dad, Mom, Corinne, Alex, and Cecelia

One of my otter pet peeves  is da time spent running. In general I think that time is better spent drilling hard. I have seen where coaches who did not know a whole lot would spend time running instead teaching and demonstrating moves. If I wanted to run I would have joined cross country. 

then I guess that answers the questions above if it was school issued.  Tommy is a great kid and I loved the singlet !!!  Thanks for responding

Just for the record if someone is in the state finals they can pretty much do whatever they want so Tommy's cool.

Just for the record and I don't know if it even mattered but Tommy's singlet still had Lawrence North on it.

I will pick one per weight outside the top 8. But it will have to be someone I have seen live.
 
106: giovani Diaz wheeler scrappy kid with a great partner in the room lost his only loss was a tight one with Martin Cruz 
113: Gabe smith Lawrence Central when healthy he can wrestle with anyone in the state. Al smith champ and had a impressive win over Boarman this summer. 
120: Justice cash Bloomington north as he showed in his double overtime loss to Curtis at mooresville he is at that top level 
126: Tanner Demain penn he is funky and solid on top that is a recipe for a great run plus he is well coached 
132: Jacob Maldonado merrillville he is a grinder and has big move ability plus he has the legacy. 
138: Brialin Harrington north central look at his ticket rd match last year and tell me this dude isn’t in the mix 
145: Nathan Conley Avon wrestled up all year and is as dangerous as anyone in that weight 
152: Joseph walker Mishawaka purchase the Indianamat track wrestling  video and watch this kid he is real good 
160: Brooks Davis Perry meridian you can not teach athleticism and brooks is areat wrestle and athlete 
170: Cody crary munster he has battled injury in his senior year. I wouldn’t be surprised if he made a deep run 
182: Jeremy Torres portage mean and tough on top can take you a long way he started off ranked #2 and has taken losses but could make a run. 
195: AJ Fowler calumet you would be hard pressed to find a more physical specimen at 195 he is a great athlete and slick on his feet. 
220: dalyn Hart Fort Wayne Wayne give him a follow on Twitter and see this is a grown man. Obviously parris is a tall order but a big strong athlete can make a nice run. 
285: Manny Cheam Franklin community. The grizzly cubs and coach hassleman know how coach a big man. Cheam has a lot of heart and a tough road 
I didn’t pick the same team twice but here are some guys I think could be considered underrated 

One of if not the most important aspect of wrestling hand-fighting Brayton Lee prior to that Nick Lee two of the best hand Fighters I've personally seen in this state. 
If you want to be highly successful at the next level kids you better learn how to hand fight

Monkey God

Congratulations Gunnar and family. What a great young man . Thank you for your future service and you will always be a HighRoller.

I would be thrilled if my son grows up and has half the success Ty Mills has had.

Robert Loves that lat drop too

Aggressive and always looking to score...CUMMINGS!

He got winners Pay.

Yeah. Justice was winning 2-1 and the Ref hit him with second stalling for throwing up . Otherwise match would have ended that way. I'm not one to complain but that kid has been sick for a while and pushed himself and did what he needed to get through. He should have just vomited on the mat . I'm still proud he gave it his all.

Finally home from VA but didn't want to leave out High Rollers White. They put on a strong performance and Repd IN well also. Too tired to think too much but a couple stand outs to me on High Rollers White
 
106- Justice Cash was competitive every match wrestling in his first big dual in the high school division 4-3
 
113- Kory Cavanaugh is a hammer
 
126- Camden Chatterton Very undersized and still wrestled tough every match
 
132 - Zach Melloh is a grinder . never stops
 
138 - Tondrew Tyler quick . really quick and fun to watch
 
145 - Jack Eiteljorge Killer with his Top work . had to let him start choosing position or I would have him take top every chance . He was tilting machine
 
152 - Noah Warren great weekend for him and looks better every time I see him wrestle . battled some tough competition every go and beat at least 1 highly ranked wrestler that I know of . pretty sure unbeaten with all pins and tech falls .
 
160 - Jake Ruberg relentless. got injured . refused to quit . came back out with 1 arm and not only got the win but worked to get bonus which helped the team move on. WOW!
 
170 - Tristan Goering He scared me every match. so much intensity every match. this guy has to be an insane freestyle/Greco wrestler. he will launch you
 
182- Caden Hubner wrestled tough every match as a freshman 182 will be someone to watch
 
195 - Drew Williamson undersized and never backed down. Out slicked a lot of wrestlers this week end
 
 
the whole team battled but came up just short of placements .
Almost forgot . Big Thanks to Tommy Cash for Coaching the White team . He did a great job and got several compliments from the Officials .

The tournament is running about 1 hr + ahead of schedule so HR White should be wrestling about 8 PM tonight .
