    Great to see a kid put a Gold on the mantle.
     
    In a time where many Avon families have drifted north... happy to see the crew stay put.

    Wouldn't it have been easier to just go to a neighboring, rival high school where he could be a starter?

    I guess I wasn't tracking the Hendricks County tournament no longer existed. I can see the argument against it. Just a fond memory, I suppose. 
     
    Wild to think there was a time and place where all the Hendricks County schools were matched up in football for a "Day at the Dome" in the 90's.

    Sweats McFurley reacted to Y2CJ41 in Injury times are out of control   
    The best way to curb that is for injury time that the coach cannot attend to the wrestler and a trainer/doctor must attend to them. Along with not allowing water or anything like that.

    I think that they should reserve the first couple of rows for parents and grandparents and let the wrestlers immediate family to sit mat side in the finals just like they do at the NCAA's.

    My favorite interview of the night was when Dickman mentioned that his opponent in the Finals - Nathan Rioux -  was his first ever practice partner at age 4.
     
    I know that BB & Avon are rivals from the same county, so it wasn't exactly mind-shattering to hear, but it was very cool just the same.
     
    I don't know the Rioux family. But knowing this sport & the kids they have put forward, I can't imagine anything but great things.

    Congrats to Waylon Cressell.  Several out of state studs have come into Indiana over the past several decades, but most don’t win out single class state title.  If you take away Sergio Lemley’s Covid Year (and he’s actually a IN born and raised that jumped borders for school) I’m not sure we can find too many out of state studs that won a title here. Especially year one.

    Clark was up 4-1 late in the second, shoots in on a blast double. The thick-thighed, Fargo Greco champ hips in with double overs to his back for 5. Down 7-4 just past a minute to go in the 3rd, Clark was toast and was desperately in on a single. Hartleroad was still looking fresh and fairly easily hipped into him again for 4 more to seal it.

    Been there, done this. Only real option to decrease pain brought on by movement. Dropped a 135lb barbell across my toe doing bent over rows the day before a County dual. THE County dual.
     
    Similar, but different, I also dealt with turf toe in college. It can be taped, but is still very painful. I ended up switching my stance as to not have my left foot be my rear foot. Lead to a bit of versatility in my offense.
     
    Other than that, grit'cher teeth and give it hell.
