Neither team could stop the other in the 1st half and other than an opening TD for the Miners to make it 28-27, no one could move the ball much in the 2nd.  Near constant rain made field very slippery, limiting both teams to minimal offense.  No doubt the decision to go for it on 4th and 3 near end of the 1st half near midfield proved unwise.  That score turned out to be the difference in a game that lived up to all the hype.  Congrats to Miners on a great season.

One thing to think about. In places with large populations such as Evansville there are training clubs wrestling that are not school based. They are not cheap. The kids that cannot  afford to attend those clubs just practice at their schools in the off season. To limit the schools to no winter sports practices until all fall sports are completed would result in those who cannot afford or do not have a club within diving distance  to attend clubs to be at an disadvantage.

I forgot about the academies.

What are your thoughts on *if* the IHSAA were to prohibit Fall sports athletes from practicing with their Winter sports teams until the Fall sport's state championship has been played? 

Already, many Winter sports games in mid November get rescheduled or canceled, if a team has a long tourney run, I believe both ADs have to agree or the team without its Fall sport players could be at a severe disadvantage. 

I'm particular, wrestlers also gain much needed mat and conditioning time, giving them an advantage over a wrestler who has to give an extra month to his Fall sport. 

Tangentially, we are learning more and more about adolescents overusing their bodies physically and the joint/bone/brain injuries which can be chronic. Should there not be a mandatory cool down period between seasons? How many coaches use pregame shoot around to fulfill the minimum practice quota? 

I understand what you are saying.  I was a 3 sport athlete.  Football, wrestling, and track.  I like the idea of no winter sports practices until all fall sports are completed.  It would help even the prep time for all schools.

I feel good for Coach Fuhs at Forest Park.  1-9 last year... and now sitting 6-4 and in the 2nd round of sectonals .  Since coming to the Rangers in 2012 this is only the 2nd time they've won an opening round sectional game.  and oddly enough, that was against North Knox is 2017.   6 wins is the high win total for Coach... 5-5 in 2015 and 4-7 in 2017.  I think most folks genuinely thought Tell City would be the team facing NK at this points but the Rangers beat the Marksmen back to back.  Do want to congratulate Coach Clements on the season he had in his 2nd year at Tell City.  5 wins the most since 6-4 in 2013 under coach Ryan George.    I would seem both TC and FP are programs on the rise.   North Knox did what they were supposed to do at South Spencer, and I'd imagine are heavy favorites again this week with Forest Park. Is this at NK or FP?    

At NK

You see the other angle on the TD pass?  Definitely no OPI. Defender initiated contact. Looks like he slipped and then brought the WR down with. 

What angle do you speak of?  The one I posted is pretty obvious the receiver was looking to hit the defensive back.  The receivers head never turned to look for the ball.
