I'll go into the oven believing that Maclellan was the best site ever for a state tournament. I was excited that UTC still wrestled duals there, but I turned on a match and was immediately bummed out by the blue plastic bleachers and the renovation that sucked all the soul out of that old place in an attempt to modern it up. They've done the same thing to Topper Palace here, only our plastic is maroon. So anyway I started working on this poem. It's pretty long but I think you guys, especially you greybeards, can appreciate it. Indulge me. Let poetry be not lonely for a minute. Maclellan I It was the best of all the battlefields, no better locale to contest the state, six mats smothering that basketball floor, wooden bleachers rolled back to shape the space, four hundred forty eight hopeful wrestlers packed in like cord wood with antsy coaches, questing to find their place in the circle some supremely confident in their shot, some slightly cowed by the task’s magnitude, taking to day one like adventurers, some in fellowship with near intact teams, others seeking treasure in ones or twos, navigating the perilous, steep slope of the pitiless pull through tournament- knowing to lose that first or second match, would require swallowing the bitter pill of placing one’s fate in another’s hands. II Thursday night, culling began in earnest, a handful falling as those who prevailed over them in that long opening round fell themselves to the next wrestler they faced, taking their places in that grey limbo vacated by the first to come to grief one hundred twelve forlorn unfortunates a quarter lost in the initial wave, some enviously watching from the stands, others trudging to the student center to burn through their precious travel money assuaging their profound disheartenment with soft serve,burgers,fries,foosball and pool, no weigh ins anytime soon (if ever). III Their ranks would double on Friday morning, quarters losers in their defeat failing to keep the ones they’d vanquished in the fray, half of yesterday’s hopefuls no longer, taking fewer than twenty-four hours to cleave the roll of contenders in half. The good news for the half who still survived was that they were masters of their own fates, those in the semis driven by knowing that even if they lost their next contest, they’d wrestle two more matches for certain- And even if they fell in both of those, they’d still be on that final medal stand. IV And as the day ground mercilessly on, a hundred forty more were doomed to fall, twenty-eight in that most bitter of rounds- The blood round, in its fearsome infamy, winners finding the loftiest of joys, losers the most profound, biting sorrows. And as the sun set on Friday’s last match, just eighty-four of Thursday’s lot remained, three hundred sixty four warriors downed in roughly thirty hard, grueling hours. V Saturday morning found the floor reduced, much like the field of Thursday afternoon the floor level bleachers now all rolled out to encircle the two mats that remained, one for the fifth and sixth place contestants, the other to decide the bronze medal, both seats and spectators inching closer to what would eventually be one mat, full four hundred and twenty giving way to the twenty-eight stalwarts who remained, best of the best Tennessee could offer the only ones left to fight for the prize that so many others set out to claim little more than forty-eight hours past- Spectators no more consigned to on high, now a stone’s throw from the day’s principals, their energy swirling like some tempest- a fine phalanx of pristine excitement a modern day shield circle of support, enveloping the hopeful finalists a marvelously insane, eager wall assembled there with pure effusiveness awaiting the first whistle of the day, tribute worthy of this lot that remained. VI Everyone has their own stories to tell- Some of unhinged elation, some of woe, six minutes of sublime culmination Of this great quest that began ages past, not days, or months, but many years ago, only fitting in this last,old school way that this great crowd should witness only two, two alone, to me the most fitting fate, of these gallants who’d labored long and hard to reach this height, this place, this pinnacle. mine was, as Coleridge said of Xanadu, a miracle of sublime, rare delight, my second match in that chair of honor, that corner we all covet for our kids, and Justin Anderson, my gritty kid, mustering all his confidence and pluck commenced to putting a right #### whipping on a kid nobody thought he could beat- nailing him in a brutal body lock, the crowd’s clamor then so insanely loud that Coach Nelson and I did not hear it- the ref slapping the mat to end the bout, only knowing the match was indeed done when Justin rose in final victory, the thunder of those fine wooden bleachers muting any noise not intensely loud. VII A few years later this fine world moved on, and the state meet moved to another site, taking the one mat final in its train today we have four going at a time, the crowd actually moved farther out than closer to the action like before, an irony that brings me no delight. VIII The Mocs still wrestle duals in that old gym but now the bleachers are bereft of soul- blue plastic instead of the thund’ring wood that beat the rhythm to the victor’s song- lost to time like a Jedi’s lightsaber, as the age grows ever less elegant, a sign of constructive progress perhaps, a sure blow to romance and pageantry. IX Still the memories of that place abide Remembrances of combats indeed close, All eyes in that place trained on only two, As near the action as could be conceived, The rumble of the crowd so powerful To smother any sound that was too meek. A place where brawls were fought the proper way.

Thanks. And there is some of that that happens. I try to regulate it as much as I can, but you know how it is.

I remember watching that game. What an amazing thing it was. I remember Herb Brooks in the movie saying "You don't have to be the best team in the world. You just have to be the best team in the world tonight." I saw that idea play out so many times over the course of my career. One of the greatest highs as a coach is watching a kid, or even better a group of kids, wrestle out of their minds and pull off miracles. I think that's really what we're living for, That's why we line up and blow the whistle. Anything if possible.

Actually that is an error on my part. Cleveland had 131. Sorry. I'm an English teacher. What can I say?

Sure-The points descend. The coaches vote for 12 teams. Say they vote Cleveland 1st-They get 12 points. McCallie is voted second-they get 11, and so on, down to the 12th team on their list, who gets one point. If all eleven coaches voted a team first, they'd get 132 points, hence the power ranking. One week for instance everyone voted summit third, so they got 110 points. Hope that makes sense. If my math ever gets wonky it's probably because I'm an English teacher and as far from the left side of my brain as is possible. I always defer to Joe Blair when the math gets crazy.

It appears you have your years muddled. Science Hill beat D-B twice in 2021, both in the conference dual and the region dual finals, explaining why they got Collierville instead of Cleveland. See, D-B was in second place. The 49-24 was in 2022. Science Hill didn't even go in 2022. There is a more complex explanation for why Bradley drew Wilson Central but I'm not sure I could explain it to you. I just mostly hope you haven't been upset over this for too long. Regardless, I think the draw they have this year atones most generously for any other perceived injustice they've been done regarding other years. Would be an interesting argument for a true second though...
