That one is unreal. Not the same division, but D3 at Rossford 144 has Borofan #1, #2 and #3. Hayden Kuhn (#3) beat Medina (#1) at sectionals but Dominique (#2) is at Rossford with the other two.If there is a tougher weight class at a district than 132 at Hoover please bring it to my attention.
132 at Hoover stands out as the toughest weight class across all districts to me. Joy, D’ Alessandro, Blackburn, Jett and with one of the top 1st Rd. matchups in Sharpley (Solon) vs Plotts (Massillon Perry). That’s a gauntlet.If there is a tougher weight class at a district than 132 at Hoover please bring it to my attention.
Yep, that is stupid in todays world.At least you guys have wrestlebacks. In Indiana, we have semi-state before state. The first two rounds at our semi-state are lose and go home. It really sucks when there are top ranked guys meeting in one of those two rounds.
Is Indiana the only state still doing that?At least you guys have wrestlebacks. In Indiana, we have semi-state before state. The first two rounds at our semi-state are lose and go home. It really sucks when there are top ranked guys meeting in one of those two rounds.
I don't know of another state that does not have wrestlebacks. Also, single class. Pretty tough to place in Indiana.Is Indiana the only state still doing that?
California is one division but has wrestlebacks. Glad the NCAA and rest of the wrestling world believe in wrestlebacks.I don't know of another state that does not have wrestlebacks. Also, single class. Pretty tough to place in
In like 96 ish. My first year as a head coach I watched a kid from Batavia that would have been a likely state finalist hurt a kid while up like 13 in the 3rd period. The kid couldn't continue and bein from Batavia went one and out at xeniaOhio didn't believe in wrestlebacks till after 87 at least...
I believe 1998 was the first year for double elimination. I know for a fact it was still Follow Your Man in 97Ohio didn't believe in wrestlebacks till after 87 at least...
I hate that it was another eight or nine years. 'Follow your man' hurt some cats...In like 96 ish.

I might be wrong but I don't think we got wrestle backs until the tournament went to the Nutter Arena in '91.Ohio didn't believe in wrestlebacks till after 87 at least...
That was in 1998. Brent Bein was DQ'd in the first round of Districts at D3 Xenia. I have not been able find district brackets anywhere for this tournament. If anyone knows where they would be found, I would love to be able to look at them.In like 96 ish.

It was not made double elim until they moved to Wright State as they have room for mats. The years at St. Johns and the one at Cincy Gardens they only had 6 mats.I believe 1998 was the first year for double elimination. I know for a fact it was still Follow Your Man in 97
I might be wrong but I don't think we got wrestle backs until the tournament went to the Nutter Arena in '91.
I know my son was on the wrong side in 88 and 89.
I would never dispute what you write. All I know is that, it SUCKED!!Correct, but it was still follow your man for the first round. There were wrestle backs for every one else, but those that lost first round and the guy that beat them lost in the quarters. Those guys went 0-1 and were done. I believe as stated above you, true double elimination started in the 98/99 season when it went to the Shott.
