That was IHPO #3.... you should know that Nick defeated him in IHPO #2

I'm getting too old to remember! HAHA I should've known better! Either way, Nick Lee is the best Lee in the history of Indiana, hands down!

Indiana Lee Rankings:

1. Brayton Lee

2. Hayden Lee

3. Matt Lee 

4. Joe Lee

5. Nick Lee

While Hayden Lee did pin Nick Lee at the 1st ever IHPO, Nick would be at the top of this list easily. EASILY!!!! He wrestles for the best college program in the U.S.! C'mon with all of this trolling! 

That Brownsburg room looks unbelievable. College-level type stuff there. I hope all of those kids truly appreciate what they have compared to others. They could have the unfortunate luck of using a gymnasium balcony with a curtain as your wrestling room like I did...... 

WOW! What a young man to still have the perseverance to keep living life to the fullest!

I'm bias, but Fielden from Garrett scores a ton of points.

As a product of his dad's coaching, I wholeheartedly agree with this one! 

I love when this discussion gets going! I say it ever year when this discussion gets brought up.: the 106 lb weight classes from 2011-2012 & 2012-2013 has produced a wide array of state champions and a few guys who even have had quite a bit of success in college. Look back through those names from those two years and you guys will see what I mean.

PSYCHO

I am all for this! I think it would be pretty awesome to see what kids would pick to come out to and would certainly entertain us during the intros. If high school baseball players can do it, why not high school wrestlers?!?

Fruits are carbs, many vegetables are as well.

He probably meant starchy carbs like potatoes, rice, pasta, or bread.

Cumberlands is going to keep owning the NAIA 125lb weight class for the next few years. 

I hate IU everything but can't help think that Angel is racking up some big dogs in his first recruiting class! Good for the Hoosiers! But as always, GO BLUE! 

C'mon Poppe, that last picture of Mason does not show his current hair style, or lack thereof. 

Sucks for Helen

What point are you attempting to make here?

Ummmmm I think he wants to know how one of Indiana's best wrestlers is doing at the next level? Didn't realize a point was trying to be made here..... 

Ok. Case closed. 

RIP to the "Coach!" Can't forget how defend against double chicken wings! 

I have a bias because of my brother. But 106 in 2012 & 106 in 2013 were pretty stacked weight classes when you consider how many state titles those guys ended up winning. Plus a bunch of those guys are still kicking butt and competing in college.

One that is often times decided before Final matches are decided, another disrespect of the upper weights.

Still over here waiting for the finals matches to be on a random draw. Poor big boys don't have nearly the amount of people watching when 11:00 pm on a Saturday rolls around.....

I only have one knock on year round wrestling. Leadership skills are lost through the process (FOR THE MOST PART). It is the fact that year-round wrestling integrates a singular mindset into that wrestler, meaning they only care about their performance and not too much about their teammates' performance. Dedicating all of the hard work in the off season to their own skills sort of creates a mindset of "ONLY ME & MY WRESTLING MATTERS!" I feel that this then limits the leadership skills of these wrestlers who should be able to lead their teams during the season. I've seen this first hand at many of the programs I've been involved with. It isn't a huge or terrible deal that these guys aren't necessarily the best leaders of their teams, I just kind of get let down when the best wrestlers in the room only care about themselves and not the overall betterment of the squad. 

What ever happened to Ancient Elder?

What if we are on the floor?

You're def on that list Fabio.. I know you're gonna have yourself a busy state weekend both for your team and Indianamat duties! 

I would say anyone from the boards who gets front row media seats saved for them during state weekend should be in the HoF. Those people tend to be the most important and vital for this website. 

Would be very surprised if Garrett didn't end up winning the tourney.

Army has been snatching up Yorktown's elite wrestlers lately, will make for a very fun line up in a few years. Who wants to bet Brayden Curtis ends up their too? 

Agreed! West Point creating a nice little pipeline there in Yorktown.
