bigedcoach 27 Report post Posted February 19, 2015 With all the things going on with this years state tourney. People like me and GOO like to remember the fun parts of the state tournament. Personally as a guy who has wrestled, refereed, helped with behind the scenes and coached. Its been a fun 20+ years. Share some of your favorite non wrestling moments at the tournament. Also has anyone checked out that the KHSAA has posted tournament programs and brackets all the way back to 1965 And I always get the itch to coach again this time of year.

Zeus 117 Report post Posted February 19, 2015 A big thanks to Coach Andy Critchfield from Henry Clay for getting those brackets posted from back in the old days. It took a lot of work last summer. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
385 109 Report post Posted February 20, 2015 I always liked going to state to see kids that I had wrestled throughout the year, that I had somehow become friends with. Since I wrestled for a school in Louisville I would get to see and hangout with kids from the random county schools that I only got to see once or twice during the season.

tiltfor3 20 Report post Posted February 21, 2015 Memorable moments - Yo BigEd, who was the kid from Eastern that lost to maybe it was Lawson from Henry Clay back when the tourney was at Atherton? It was a last second call and he ran off the mat hurdled the table where Louis Stout was and just kept running. Did he ever get his medal? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
grappler-of-old 44 Report post Posted February 21, 2015 I believe it was Ti Badejo in 1994. Lost to Tim Lawson Henry Clay at 135 if my records are correct 3-1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CoachBrown 12 Report post Posted February 21, 2015 Unfortunately, Ti did not get a medal. All of his team points were taken as well which prevented Eastern from being the team runner-up that year Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That doesn't seem right. Maybe a 1pt team deduction but, all his points? I mean, it's not like he had chewing tobacco. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
