  1. 2nd rd still going on. Franklin and CP advances though. Portage and cathedral will advance
  2. MattM, thanks for posting those results. Imagine MD wrestling against THAT line-up, and giving up a total of only 5 bonus points . . . (and no pins!) And then MD getting 18 bonus points themselves . . . The strategy of maximizing your own bonus points, while not giving up many, sounds simple, but the top programs capitalize on that. (And none better than MD back in the day) Franklin's team last year did that very effectively . . .
  3. Not only did the 2003 MD team have 4 state champs, but they had 3 others who lost to Escobedo, Hernandez and Tsirtsis at state (and Macke didn't lose to Escobedo by much . . .) While I am not one of the MD faithful, the depth of that team was unbelievable. With the aid of a time machine, I guess it might be interesting to get that team and whatever other all-time great team (other than another MD team) together to face off. (But the other team would also have to factor in the effect of the gym being packed full of hard-headed Germans from the west side of Evansville, all decked out in MD colors . . .)
  4. In a possible 2nd round match-up between LN and Portage, wonder if they might bump Cash up to wrestle Lawrence . . . ?
  5. Jacob Stevenson has 1,078 yards in 6 games, averaging almost 8 yds per carry, with 18 TDs.
  6. Hopefully both Franklin and Cathedral make it into the final round at the Traicoff, allowing Stevenson and Rypel to wrestle.
  7. Hard to guess which one out of this motley crew would be in their versions of Nike commercials and/or on Wheaties boxes . . .
  8. Is the "Don't eff this one up, boys" part of the "loving faith filled atmosphere", or part of the "comes together as family", or both . . . ?
  9. Sorry, I forgot to properly segue back to Falcon Crest . . .
  10. The IndianaMat team race breakdown was excellent, for those who haven't seen it yet. Thanks to those who put all that effort into it. Great job!
  11. What a classy post. Thank you. The five Franklin wrestlers that take the mats tomorrow night (along with the other nine Franklin varsity kids that won't), are all Franklin guys, although Petrole's family moved in from New Jersey in middle school or earlier, I believe. (Although New Jersey would seem to be too long of a distance to recruit, I DID see someone from Blair Academy at the Evansville semi-state. Hmmmmm . . . ) So, win or lose, it will be done with Franklin kids. And that is a good feeling . . . Good luck to all the teams still in the running for the IHSAA trophy.
  12. Smith wrestled Starks and won 11-3. Franklin up 37-12 at 120 now with 26 to go.
  13. Interesting to read the different responses to this initial post. I'm just glad that evidently out of the ones who read it, and certainly out of the ones who responded, none seemed to make any inference in any way, shape or form that Cathedral wasn't going to win at Bankers . . . 'Cause if they had, this thread would have exploded to 8 pages by now . . .
