Who is going to this tournament

Is it this weekend?  Are teams still wanted... there may be some looking for action since things were cancelled last week.

5th annual Mustang Classic

North Oldham PRP

Fort Knox Doss

Boone KCD

Central Moore

Oldham County Iroquois

North Hardin Holy Cross

Fern Creek

South Oldham Seneca

Bishop Brossard                  Cooper

17 teams..... shaping up to be a real tough, good tournament.

4 mats.... weigh ins at 8, wrestling hopefully by 9.

Best hospitality room in the state.

Add Trinity to that list.

Best hospitality room in the state.

I second that.

I second that.

We certainly appreciate a little bit of the extra effort, glad to know good meals and good wrestling are in store for Saturday

Is that Trinity's Varsity or JV squad?

Trinity's varsity will be there.

Came here looking for the full results, haven't seen those yet. I know Trinity won, Seneca second.

I was appalled by the arrogance shown in the Hwt finals, (especially considering the score). Coach would have killed me for that.

As for the hospitality room comments, I am positive the comments did not include the concession stand. The prices were higher than almost everywhere, and they seemed to run out of everything at one time or another. Planning for these tournaments can't be easy, but wrestlers can't leave, and if they had to much food, I am positive their team could finish it off later (we sure could have).

You are more than welcome to not return.  We won't miss you.

Who was being arrogant in the finals? 

Who was being arrogant in the finals? 

I think they are referring to Whiting basically toying with his opponent.

It is a shame that hosting a tournament does not mean treating your guests with respect.

I would expect more from you Coach Fulk. 

What was whiting supposed to do when Nh wrestler just was continually just extending arms to keep whiting off of him???  Jordan did toy with those heavyweights at North Oldham like he will continue to do ! Those who actually try to wrestle him get pinned! He actually takes it easy on the obviously inferior that to me is GOOD Sportsmanship!!!

Folks,

I posted the results in the "HIGH SCHOOL RESULTS"  forum and in a thread in the "HIGH SCHOOL WRESTLING" forum.

BigWrestleFan - to my knowledge, the only thing the concession stand ran out of was hamburgers, and they were replenished.  I know that prior to finals the price was even reduced on grilled cheese, chili and baked potatoes. Eventually, baked potatoes were given away since there were so many left.

Could you be more specific of the time frame and what item in particular we ran out of?  Obviously, we want to make sure the wrestlers are fed and fed well.  But you need to realize that we can't be left with a bunch of perishable food at the end of the day.

It isn't the fact that he is toying with them. It's the fact that he'll stand up [not to press action/set something up] just to show that he can. The expressions on his face and the things he does are a none-verbal form of bragging/showing off. I never really realized how bad it was until this tournament.

Yes, I'm sure they all appreciate his pity.  :roll:

Same thing at a match at the Dragon.

I was not attempting to issue an opinion on Whiting's wrestling either way, I was just trying to explain what another post was alluding too.

Whiting may have thought he was going to have an easy finals, but it didn't turn out that way. This was browder first round with Whiting. He found out that whiting is actually human and makes mistakes. I always say, don't judge a book by its cover. Browder has alot more talent then given credit for. Each of them only had an escape, Whiting got his other point only by pushing him out of bounds. Granted, Whiting is a beast, and showed he was strong by throwing him around, but he exposed himself a few times and almost ended up on his back.

Not that i am bias or anything being his coach, but Browder gave him a good match. I definately wouldn't say Whiting dominated the match.

I would expect more from you Coach Fulk. 

Thats fine.  I take offense at computer critics about my parent's hardwork.  Our tournament is a fundraiser for our team.  I think our concession prices where consistant with other tournament I have been to.  We do not gouge, nor inflate our prices.

I don't even charge a fee for a cooler!

We are a self funded program.  Our tournament pays for our rooms at state.

If you expect more for me.... fine, I expect people not to always find something critical.  It was a great day of wrestling, and I'll stand by what I said.  He doesn't like our prices, then don't come back.  We won't miss him.

Having planned and run concessions for several years now, I can confirm that it's really hard to know how much will be sold and when. Every tournament is different and is affected by the weather and the teams at the tournament. And even what will sell changes from year to year. We had to give away and throw out a bunch of baked potatoes last year, when the year before last, we ran out of them. Those running concessions are trying to balance the actual cost of purchasing items for sale with what we think people will pay. And, as the above post says, you don't want to have a bunch of food left over because that's lost profit. The coach pointed out they didn't charge a cooler fee either, which is pretty common, so those who didn't want to pay the prices could have brought their own food.

I just have to say -- lighten up. Hositality and concessions at these tournaments are run by parents who have fulltime jobs, who put in a 12+-hour day at a tournament they host, and who also want to catch a glimpse of their boys wrestling in the midst of managing all the other host activities. We're simply trying to support our team and be good hosts. Cut us a little slack, please.  :-D

Are you all serious with where this is going???  We're talking about volunteers as if they are six figure paid workers.  I found no problems with the concessions or anything else.  I would actually commend North for how smoothly things went once the tournament got started.  If your not prepared to donate your whole Saturday and for some uncomfortable moments, I suggest finding another way to pass your time...  These issues some of you keep complaining about are unnessary and contrite.  The most important thing are the wrestlers, not placating those of you who come for a five-star fine dining experience.  Give me a break.

:-P

Kudos to the trainer that was on duty and to NOHS for having her available for a very long day.

She told me she wished she knew more about wrestling because she would enjoy it more.

I don

Just curious, are the same people complaining here about the concession stand and hospitality room, as about the ones at woodford county? because if so maybe they should just put on their own tournament every weekend so that they choose what to put in the concession stands and hospitality rooms and how much there is and what to charge

I apologize for my condition at Mustang. Hope I didn't offend anyone.

wat was ur condition?

The people who ran the stand were sacrificing their own time and money, for you to say that they were rude or whatever is out of line. The parents who ran this gave up so much just to do this for wrestlers, they didn't have to, you can stop being rude and realize that they pay for this out of their own pockets hoping to be re inversed.

wat was ur condition?

i heard terance demery was way over weight for this tournement any truth to this

Not the same people. Again, I never complained either. :-D

at least that is wat some ppl for north hardin said

he did not officially weigh in but he was 18 to 19 pounds over

at least that is wat some ppl for north hardin said

I think that qualifies as way over.  Has he issues like this all season?  Didn't he miss regions last year do to not making weight?

i have thought that he looked pretty muscular to be a 125 personally

I think that qualifies as way over.  Has he issues like this all season?  Didn't he miss regions last year do to not making weight?

I would like to think that someone was over exaggerated :-o

I find it difficult to believe that a coach or parent would knowing allow someone to drop that much weigh in a week.

If he does make weight, I'll pick whoever he faces in the final :evil:

i agree with you about a parent or coach allowing a kid to cut that much weight in one week unless it was a parent that used to do the same thing in high school or college, because then it might not seem so wrong to them because they did it themselves, but i personally wouldnt do it just to make a certain weight class. Wrestling at about 10 lbs. under my natural body weight is about as far as im willing to drop, but i do that gradually by not overeating on saturdays after weigh-ins.

Well first off I was no where near 18 pounds or 19 pounds or any other randomly high number u can think of saturday at the Mustang Classic. But yes, through our want to be blizzard I did gain some weight probably more then I should have. Yes i do cut hard, and that was part of the reason I did not make weight last year. Why is it important to you guys anyway. You going to hope and pray I do not make weight for a easier bracket? Well sorry I am going to be at region and state and im going to be on weight and wrestle my hardest. Has Been I don't really care who you pick, because hey I am going to show up and I am going to win. Forever Fearless I know how to cut weight so it is not a problem to me. As for the non believers see you on the mat.

Talked to Terrence on Saturday, he admitted being overweight, but you all chastizing this kid because of it is juvenile.  When he makes weight for regionals and state, (and he will), be prepared to eat your words.  I'm not saying's his a runaway to win state, but the kid can wrestle, no doubt about it.  Good Luck T

Demeryt,

This was not a shot at you, I would pick against anyone that lost 18 or 19 pounds in a week against tough kids.

I think you leaned a valuable lesson last year and as I said I  would like to think that someone was over exaggerated about the weigh. Either way it's not of my concern what you weigh.

You are the favorite until someone beats you as I predicted earlier; best of Luck  :-D

Posted earlier:

125 Pounds

Terrence Demery vs. Goodwine/Terry - Coin Toss who makes the mistake

Demery is the favorite for title via DEC

Goodwine or Terry is 3rd Fall Shelby Floyd  :wink:

Well sorry if anyone took offense. Just saying thanks for having some confidence in me. Im just ready to weigh in already so i can grab a cold gatorade.

i didnt mean that you in particular did this but, i do have freinds who do and i was simply saying what i do and how

i hope that you do make weight at regionals and state, i know i for one don't want an easier tournament just because you didn't make weight. i look forward to my rematch against you, if i ever get one. good luck.

finally, someone who isnt looking for the easiest way to accomplish something that should never be easy, at least there is still someone looking to find the toughest competition to make himself better.

wheres the pride in saying i won state, but the top four guys were injured, or missed weight?

I totally agree

same here

i wanted to wrestle hitchings that day
