  1. Round 1 Penn Xtreme Gold 57 over Canes wrestling (FL) 11
  2. Returning teams placement For Division 1 during the 2010 Tourney (Out of 40 teams) *Note* Some teams may not be listed if they changed their names or were in Division 2 last season. Pool A 9‐12 Falcon Blue‐IN 18. Manatee Mafia‐FL Pool B 7. Collins Hill Eagles‐GA 17. PWC Patriots‐OH (Same Team??) 20‐24. Charlotte‐FL 20‐24 Austintown Fitch Falcons‐OH 33‐40 Falcon Silver‐IN Pool C 3. Penn Xtreme Gold‐IN 9‐12 Oregon Clay‐OH 13 Hartland Eagles‐MI 31. Northport Bobcats‐FL Pool D 2. Moeller‐OH 20‐24. Columbus East‐IN Pool E 9‐12. Cumberland Valley‐PA 14. Mater Dei Red‐IN 15. Naperville Phoenix‐IL 33‐40 Pine Bay‐FL Interesting that crosstown rivals Penn and Mishawaka travel all that way to Florida and end up together in the same pool. Good luck to all the Indiana teams!
  3. Another option would be to treat it like a stoppage during a pinning combination - let the wrestler use his inhaler but then award the other wrestler 4 points. ;D
  4. No, I would encourage them to use inhalers because it may save their life. I don't think they should be allowed to continue the match if they need a drug (inhaler) to continue. If a wrestler cannot finish a match without the use of a drug to continue, then they should forfeit the match.
  5. I understand that asthma is a serious health issue. However, some wrestlers who get boo'd have seemingly used the asthma issue to get a break at very key times of matches. I have seen some matches against a certain asthmatic wrestler go over 14 minutes for just 3 periods of wrestling because of stoppages and stalling tactics like unhooking headgear and taking it off and slowly putting it back on. Coming EXTREMELY slowly back to the center of the mat on restarts, slowly adjusting knee pads.... all these things add huge amounts of time for a match. Worse, it seems to be a behavior learned and used by other non asthmatic teammates of a certain team in particular. Referees need to keep the time strictly limited to injury time only and NOT allow delaying and stalling tactics that are used in this manner. There are many wrestlers whose endurance is a key part of how they win a match... by exhausting their opponent. IMO these stoppages put the wrestler who is conditioned for endurance at a severe disadvantage to wrestlers who continually get a break to recover, abuses the rules (calling for blood time when not bleeding) and use stalling tactics. It might also be argued that the use of an inhaler and the drug boost could possibly give the asthmatic wrestler a short term advantage by allowing their body, for a short time, to absorb more oxygen then their opponent. If a wrestler cannot finish a match without the use of a drug to continue then they should forfeit the match.
  6. What a match! Congratulations to Penn! Jimtown really came to wrestle and these finals were as about as exciting as it possibly could have been! Hats off to both teams for the outstanding efforts of the wrestlers and coaching staffs!
  7. I will start off by saying that Kayla Miracle is a talented wrestler. I have great respect for the young women like Kayla and Sarah who have the talent to wrestle and the desire to compete. After reading the posts you made I have carefully replayed the tape of the match over and over paying extra attention to the last period of the match. 1) Kayla was wearing a shirt under her singlet. (It is black in color and stands out in contrast to her singlet.) 2) I cannot find any time where Kayla "stopped" wrestling whether out of "shock" or otherwise. 3) IMO the was no moment that Kayla was ever in danger of having a "JJ" episode on the mat during this match. I think it is sad that such a quality and close match is being disparaged in this manner. These kind of comments take away from the effort and true wrestling talent showed by both wrestlers in this match. Good luck to both wrestlers at Merriville!
  8. Sadly its in pieces with some of the better parts not caught on cam... some of it is alright though.
  9. Caught some of it on video. Might be good Youtube fodder.
  10. Ahhh... Yup, I remember that now. Thank you for the reminder!
  11. Fun reading! Just one question, what does the comment "Not Packing a Cooler" mean?
  12. Warsaw and Jimtown wrestled each other at the Penn Super duals. I know Jimtown won but I don't know any match particulars or if Warsaw was short any starters or not. With having only limited knowledge of Warsaw I give the edge to Jimtown. I see finals as Penn over Jimtown in a very competitive match up.
  13. I feel bad for the Eastern HS wrestlers. To have won and not be allowed to wrestle is a real shame. What about the wrestlers who can wrestle? Don't they deserve the chance/honor to compete?
  14. From what I know about Miracle from Fargo Nationals and from her record in high school there is no doubt she is one quality wrestler! The only problem I see in her not being given the nod is that I have not heard of her winning against any notables. What other quality wrestlers has she beat?
  15. The Kolat (SBR) vs Hummer (Penn) went to into the 3rd full overtime period. That was one exciting and close match!
  16. Your picks seem very strong for the SB Riley wrestlers... I'm a Penn homer so my picks are Penn heavy... At 103 The Davis (Penn) vs Miracle (CMA) match up in the semis will be an exciting lead up to the finals match. At 119 I see the finals as Davis (Penn) vs Simpson (Roch) At 125 Chapple (Penn) has Pinned Ullery (SBR) all 3 times they have met this season, in fact I don't think Ullery has even scored a point against Chapple (I could be wrong though.) Finals will be a Chapple (Penn) vs Binion (Mish.) sectionals rematch. At 130 Manspeaker (Penn) vs Hartman (SBR) will be another close match. Manspeaker won at NIC in a close match and Hartman won a very close match at sectionals. This will be one of the closest match-ups in the semis IMO. I see the Finals match as Manspeaker (Penn) vs. Wisler (Mish) At 140 I'm not sure Roland (SBR) will get past Jacobs (CMA) and Ginter (Penn) vs Corl (Bre) will be close in the semis too. I give the advantage to the top side of the bracket in either case in the finals. At 145 This will be Anglemyer (Penn) and Lunford (SBC) in the finals. At 152 talent is so even its a 4 way toss up IMO. Naturally, the edge here to Hummer (Penn) ;D At 171 I think the finals will be a Stevens (Penn) vs Coddens (SBR) rematch of sectionals. At 189 the best match ups are in the semis and again I give the advantage to the top side of the bracket for the finals. At 215 this will be a Reagan (Penn) vs Gallegos (SBC) sectional rematch. At 285 the best match ups are in the semis. Maggart has been turning it up and seems to be peaking at the right time. The finals will be Maggart (Penn) vs Howe (Plymouth)
  17. I think this is the correct bracket - http://indianamat.com/brackets/2011/rochesterreg.pdf
  18. Again you have ignored what I have said. Will underlining help? I do not defend the actions of the parent. But, also as a parent I can understand how a parent could become that emotional under these particular circumstances especially after having watching the event in person and reviewing the tape of the injury. I can understand and agree that this behavior by a parent is unacceptable. IMO your idea of a suitable punishment far exceeds the circumstances of this event. A few weeks ago a parent from Indiana team while at a JV event actually threatened a wrestler, several coaches and was overheard trying to gather wrestlers to go after another wrestler off the mat at an event my wife attended. To my knowledge nothing happened to that parent at all. So, yes... I do understand the need to keep parents in line. As a coach for baseball, football and wrestling far and away it has been my experience that wrestling has the best sportsmanship by far from participants, parents and coaches when compared to the other sports.
  19. Nope, not defending it, understanding how and why it happened under the circumstances. You are right in that it did not help the matter for anyone involved. However, your comment of suggested action would be heavy handed to the extreme considering the circumstances IMO.
  20. Mishawaka sectionals had 2 come close - 145 had Lunford at 37, Angelmyer at 34, Logan at 29, Reynolds-Smith at 34 125 had Binion at 34, Chapple at 32, Howell-Bey at 20, Ullery at 32 (5th place Johnson at 26)
