You talking about Broc Berge, Seth Gross, or Sam Stoll? Because these are the only MN guys to take the mat for Iowa in the last decade. The first was the number 1 recruit at his weight and ended up retiring early. The 2nd got mixed up with IC riff-raff and got kicked out, then left and improved 1000%. The last got shot by a teammate and got his scholly yanked because of it.
It's only a matter of time until Minnesota kids realize that moving down south isn't necessarily going to make them great.

No worries, fellas -- send them East and we'll make champs out of 'em.

States.The kid didn’t even win state his senior year.
States.
Which ones?
Never have understood "states". There is one State Tournament. I understand "districts" and "sectionals" because there is more than 1 such tournamentStates.

But you are only entered in the state tournament for your division. Therefore, you win state. Unless you cheat and enter in multiple "states".Not true. Nearly every state has multiple divisions with their own tournaments. Now, most are held at the same location(in my time a and b were at Kellog while C/D was held at the High School). Still, even if they are held at the same place, they are in fact multiple state tournaments!
California is the biggest exclusion to this
psssst…
Nationals

So a spectator can attend "states" because there are 3 tournaments. A wrestler cannot wrestle states, because he/she only qualifies for 1 of the tournaments. A team cannot place in states because it can only compete in 1 of the tournaments. Got itIn Iowa there are three separate state tournaments and forty two individual state champions. Perhaps those three tournaments and 42 brackets take place in the same building, but it’s three tournaments.
When you compete at “Districts” you’re not competing in multiple District tournaments, you’re just competing in one of them; just as you’re only competing in one of the three state tournaments. But you still say, “I hope I win Districts this year!”

Nah, you wrestle at Districts, Sectionals, and States. Or, you wrestled in your District Tournament, your Sectional Tournament, and the State Tournament. Even in NJ, with only one class, they say they're wrestling at "states"; presumably because there are fourteen state champions to be crowned.
I am going to wrestle in the district, regional and state tournament this year. Not districts, not regionals, and not states. I am only going to wrestle in one of each. But, since we know what everyone is talking about, each regional speech form is acceptable, so no need to discuss further. Revisit topic next summer when nothing else going on!

There is on only one State Tournament in Iowa, thus you wrestle at State. If you win, you are a state champ. There are multiple districts (8), therefore, you wrestle at Districts. If you win districts, you are a district champ. If you want to say that there are essentially 3 state separate tournaments since we have three classes, you might as well say we have 42 separate state tournaments.
“States” sounds like how one of them hillbillies out east would say it.

I guess we will see what they doThe kid didn’t even win state his senior year.
yeah but you would not say he won national you would say he won Nationals or he was number one at Nationals not number one at national. Is this like the tomato and potato thingYeah, but we still say "he's a national champion" not "He's a nationals champion."
Honest question, do you weirdos say "he's a 4-time states champion?"
