  1. I just heard that this is solely a Ticketmaster issue. They have their advanced team working on fixing the problem as quickly as possible and hope to have tickets available for purchase within the hour. Ticketmaster hasn't seen this type of response since Taylor Swift ticket sales crashed their site (they didn't actually say that part). I was told that anyone who has purchased tickets that said to pick up at will call should be receiving their tickets digitally as expected.
  2. Attached are files from the Explore Evansville group with information for fans attending the 2024 IHSAA Wrestling State Finals in Evansville, IN this year.

  7. Castle High School is looking for a tournament for Saturday, January 6, 2024. If you are hosting and have any openings, please contact AD Brandon Taylor at btaylor@warrick.k12.in.us
  8. Jasper dropped out several years ago. Hobart took their place for a few years and then Avon replaced Hobart. Over the years, the 6th team has included Fern Creek, McCracken County, and Paducah Tilghman from Kentucky. Paducah Tilghman was scheduled to come again this year but they just competed in the Kentucky football state championship and do not have any of their football players which make up 10 of their 14 varsity spots according to their coach. The teams that will be in attendance this year are Avon, Bloomington South, Castle, Evansville Mater Dei, and Jeffersonville. Wrestling begins at 9am. Doors will open at 7:30am. Schedule is: Round 1: Jeff. vs. Bloom. So., Mater Dei vs Avon Bye: Castle Round 2: Castle vs. Jeff., Bloom. So. vs. Avon Bye: Mater Dei Round 3: Castle vs. Mater Dei, Jeff. vs. Avon Bye: Bloom. So. Round 4: Castle vs. Avon, Bloom. So. vs. Mater Dei Bye: Jeff Round 5: Castle vs. Bloom. So., Mater Dei vs. Jeff. Bye: Avon
  9. There is a proposal to move Regional to North. That hasn't passed yet. Regional host assignments not made until after realignment of teams.

  11. The SIAC Wrestling meet IS ON!!! However, it will be a 2-hour delay start. Doors will open at 9:30 for fans and wrestling will begin at 11am.
  12. Mt Vernon bumped Konrath up to wrestle Ferguson. #1 at 106 vs #4 at 113. Clear size differential.
  13. It's been fixed. My apologies.
  14. JV Teams wanted for Saturday. If you are interested, please contact me at btaylor@warrick.k12.in.us by Friday 1/3. We do not wrestle JV duals. We will match kids up by weight class and try to get them 3-5 matches depending on time and number of wrestlers in each weight class. Weigh ins are at 7am CST with wrestling beginning at 8am. We already have 8 teams bringing JV wrestlers and are looking to make this a great day of JV wrestling.

  15. Wasn't asking for a cartwheel. Doubt that could happen anyway. Nor did I say Chad was satisfied. He's looking to do bigger and better things and this was just a minor accomplishment along the way. Again, stop being such a jerk. I'm sure you will be Iowa. I'll listen for you downplaying all the big wins. I'm sure it'll sound something like this...."Someone just beat David Taylor? So what? Dake's done that before. No big deal." I didn't wrestle D-1 either. I didn't say you weren't allowed to comment. Just asked why you were so superior that you can downplay big time wins in D-1 wrestling? I think it's pretty cool that all of these Indiana kids have punched their tickets to the NCAA tournament. Do you not get excited every time your kids punch their ticket to State? Or are we going to say that's not a big deal either? I'm done with this conversation at this point as I am moving past this nonsense. Go ahead and continue to post your disrespectful comments all over this board and continue to delete the ones that make you look foolish. Good luck to all the Indiana kids that will be wrestling in Iowa. Looking forward to seeing a lot of the Indiana coaches there as well. Safe travels next week.
  16. For the record, Doug split the two wrestle offs with Pat. Pat winning the first, Doug winning the 2nd. They did not have a 3rd wrestle off. Doug did get some varsity matches this season for Purdue. Mosier, was behind Chad Welch at 174. I guess my biggest problem is why you even had to say something at all. It makes you sound like a complete jerk off when someone was just celebrating a big win over (by everyone else's rankings except yours) a top 10 kid in the country. Yes, that is a big deal. How many top 10 kids have you ever beaten in your career? Stop downplaying everyone else's success. I will be in Iowa cheering on Chad and all of the other Indiana wrestlers no matter what school they attend now. It IS a big deal to make it to the NCAA Wrestling Championships. Here's what I'd like from you. Why don't you tell us about your wrestling career and credentials that make you so superior that you can downplay wins like this? Stop being such an D-bag.
  17. All this talk about the travel time to Evansville let's you know how we have felt for years! Before the Semi-State was moved to Evansville, teams from this area had to travel to Seymour (2 1/2 hours) and then turn around a week later and make the trip to Indy (3 1/2 hours before I-69). Teams from Bloomington/Indy area have a long trip to SS but a quick trip to Indy. We have a quick trip to SS and long trip to Indy. It's all the same in the end. The teams that have a real complaint are the teams from Louisville area (Jeff, Floyd Central, New Albany, etc) because they have to make a 2-2 1/2 hour trip both weeks. If it took you 4 1/2 hours from Greensburg, you need to drive faster because Mapquest says 3 1/2.
  18. As the coach who went to the table, I did not demand it be called a pin. I just wanted to remind the official of the rule that if pin criteria was met before the buzzer, the it is a pin. It doesn't matter when he blows his whistle or slaps the mat. Todrank is a good wrestle but was not frustrating Welch. Luke was in control of the match. At that point in the dual meet, we needed all the bonus points we could get so making sure we got 6 instead of 5 for a tech or 4 for a major was pretty important. Just wanted to clear that up. It was a great yak meet and looking forward to a very competitive Sectional. Brandon Taylor
  19. If I was at a school of OSU's caliber like John Smith, I'd go to the the first so I could see the BEST!! How many of those bottom 224 wrestlers do you really think could wrestle at OSU? Now, a D2, D3, or NAIA school would probably like the other one because those are the kids they'd probably get. Bad argument using John Smith. He's not going after State Qualifiers. He wants the BEST OF THE BEST which one class tells you who that is!!
  20. Can someone make a poll on what COACHES would like to see on this website. (1) Keep the weight classes the way they are now or (2) change them back to the old weight classes. I know there are a lot of other ideas that have been thrown out there but if these are the only two, what would everyone vote for? I don't know how or I would do it.
  21. While in STL for the NCAA's this past weekend, a coach from California approached us and asked where we were from. When we responded that we are from Indiana he knew that we couldn't attend his tournament in CA over Christmas break because of our travel rules. He said "You guys have some messed up rules in Indiana. But the good thing is you are one class. You know who the best is. One class, one champion." While some of you might think going class would be a great idea, other states who are classed don't necessarily like it. For us to be known around the country as a single class state says a lot for us knowing that other people want to be like us. That guy said it best "One class, one champion!"
  22. Are there any Indiana coaches that will be going to the Jr. Nationals in VB? If you are, please send me a PM. Thanks, Brandon Taylor Castle Wrestling
  23. I don't post on here too much but I will agree that it was a terrible call. I hope Louis Rosbottom feels good about himself knowing he blew not only that call but the near fall call as well. Not only did I see him count to 2, but I also HEARD him say "1..2....no near fall". I asked him to ask his mat assistant for his opinion and he told me that he would not ask him because it was his call. What's the point of having an assistant official if you won't even ask him for his opinion? Several of the other officials (I will not mention names) came up to me and told me that we got screwed on both of those calls. I am not bashing all officials because I know it's a difficult job and there are only a few people in the state willing to do it, but don't let your personal opinion of a school/coach affect your officiating.
  24. Brown won 2-0. Escape in 2nd. Penalty point on Kuhn for cautions.
