Science Hill makes a mockery of our sport

If any of you HONESTLY believe that science hill did the right thing by not letting the kids they had wrestle, simply to “not get embarrassed” then you are making as much a mockery of our sport as SH is. How can you honestly say that jv kids shouldn’t wrestle cause they’re “just bait”. You can’t preach how much Tennessee wrestling needs to improve and how far off we are on a national level, and then say it’s ok to NOT give jv kids mat time. How are we gonna get better if we aren’t letting inexperienced kids have mat time? How are THEY gonna get better without mat time???? Y’all are acting like DB is some powerhouse that would just mangle them. Since when is DB an elite program you should be afraid of? I don’t care if it’s Baylor, Cleveland, CBHS... I don’t even care if it’s Blair or Seminary or Bergen..if you show up and you have kids who are healthy enough to wrestle..I don’t care how experienced they are.. it’s extremely disrespectful to not let them go get the mat time. It’s disrespectful to the kids cause you’re basically saying “sorry you’re not good enough to step in for one match”. It’s disrespectful to the other team who showed up and get this...ALSO wants and needs mat time. And it’s so disrespectful to the parents and fans who showed up to watch. They paid to watch the dual and then this happens. If I was a parent of one of the SH kids that was healthy and needed mat time, and my kid didn’t get to wrestle because they weren’t “experienced” enough, or because of a coaches grudge...I would be FUMING. And I’m already pretty upset at the situation. I cannot imagine how those kids and all the parents must feel.

I couldn’t tell you how may where there cause I wasn’t there. From what I gather it was one experienced kid and a bunch of inexperienced kids. Would you put your inexperienced kids out in shark infested waters if you didn’t need to? To me it boils down to a team licking their chops to beat up on inexperienced kids, Science Hill chose not to use their kids as bait and they got the W they so desperately wanted, just not how they planned it out. Sometimes when you play stupid games you win stupid prizes.

You’re an idiot

This is quite entertaining. 

Question about this deadly flu virus- what other teams were at this tournament Saturday? Just so we know who else to avoid.

 

The idea of wanting to reschedule a high school contest due to illness is insane.  With the rare acception of a school being out due to illness, this wouldn't fly in most 8 year old leagues (for any sport).

How does this affect region and district standings now?  I would assume science hill is strong enough to make it to state regardless of who they wrestle (assuming the cold isnt going around), but it may screw over a team in the other district.

    • QUICK UPDATE -  First, I see a lot of wrestling names that I recognize on that GoFundMe.  THANK YOU so much for helping this family.   After the long surgery on Sunday morning to repair his neck, Jacob suffered a collapsed lung.  Sometimes this happens after long surgeries.  They had to put him on a ventilator to get his breathing back on track.  He came off the vent on Monday morning and they put a BIPAP on him to help control his breathing.  As of today, Thursday, the BIPAP came off and he is breathing well on his own.  He is working towards drinking a glass of water and hopefully eating some solid food at some point in the near future. Jacob can "feel" when someone touches his legs, but there is still no movement.  His parents are beginning to prepare for him to be moved to the Shepherd Center in the next few days.  He will be there in Atlanta for 30-45 days.  Im sure he will receive excellent treatment. Please continue to pray for healing for him and if you are so moved, please contribute to the gofundme link above to help in any way you can.  The go fund me is doing well, but this is going to be a very long road for these guys Im afraid.. Thanks again! Sells
