Pure Sport! 3 Welcome to this championship event Since 1903, the Indiana High School Athletic Association has promoted the values of education based athletics and was the primary reason for its formation over 100 years ago. It has been an honor for our Association to partner with member schools in the promotion of these ideals. The importance of this mission is more critical today than ever in our history. Currently in our state, over 160,000 students from 410 different IHSAA member schools choose to participate in interscholastic athletics. These fortunate students absorb a variety of life lessons as they develop from adolescents to mature young adults. The opportunity to learn self-discipline, teamwork, sacrifice, loyalty and commitment are attributes that have come to be known as “the other half of education.” The mastery of these characteristics retains dramatic impact as these young people assume leadership roles in our society. A former high school principal once shared with each of his incoming freshman classes that “you will only take away from high school what you leave behind.” The students that perform before you today are leaving their absolute best behind for generations of admirers to recall. On behalf of the IHSAA Staff and Board of Directors, we welcome you to today’s events. Education based athletics which are pure, wholesome, and inexpensive reflecting local flavor and enthusiasm has always been the objective. It is what we mean when we say….. Pure Spirit, Pure Sport, Pure Indiana!

While not officially sponsored by the IHSAA, but held with special permission, the first state high school wrestling tournament took place in 1922 at Indiana University. A total of 19 wrestlers from seven schools participated in the first tournament. From 1922 to1935, a regulation high school wrestling match called for one eight-minute period with both wrestlers starting in the neutral position on their feet. No point system was in place, and the winner was determined solely on riding time or by a fall. For the 193536 season, a point system was installed and periods were added to make the matches more interesting for fans. From 1922 to 1951, the only IHSAA rules for wrestling were the same ones that applied to all sports in the state, mainly eligibility and age requirements. During this time, so-called gentlemens’ agreements were decided upon before meets by the coaches and these rules were enforced by the officials. A new set of rules, written by coaches Chauncey McDaniel of Southport High School and Clifford Myers of Bloomington High School, were adopted by the IHSAA beginning with the 1951-52 season. Modifications in the standing rules, most notably those that helped to prevent excessive weight loss, were made in time for the 1957-58 wrestling season. Finally in 1973, using Indiana’s rules as a measuring stick, the National Wrestling Federation Rules were written and adopted. Due to the sport’s rapid growth, the IHSAA took over sponsorship of the tournament from 1933 to 1943, though the state finals were still held at Indiana University. However, as the Great Depression gripped the country and the United States entered World War II, there was a gradual decline in the number of schools participating. That forced the IHSAA to drop wrestling from its sponsorship from 1944 to 1949. During this period, various participating schools kept the tournament going by holding an annual invitational state tournament. The IHSAA resumed sponsorship of the tournament in 1950 and continues to do so today. From 1950 to 1959, Bloomington and Lafayette Jefferson high schools alternated as the host school before the finals were moved in 1960 to Southport High School’s 7,200-seat fieldhouse. The finals eventually required even more seating and from 1981 to 1999 were held at Market Square Arena in Indianapolis before moving to what is now Bankers Life Fieldhouse in 2000. From 1996 to 2012, a separate team tournament was conducted in dual format to determine an overall team state champion. The state finals were conducted at Southport High School in 1996 and then culminated at Center Grove High School for the next 16 years. Beginning in 2013, the state championship team was again determined by points accumulated by individual wrestlers as it had been from 1936 to 1995. 22 Tournament Milestones 1922 First State Tournament held at Indiana University 1933 First IHSAA-Sponsored State Tournament Held 1935 First Use of Scoring System 1944-49 IHSAA Ceases Sponsorship due to World War II 1950 IHSAA Resumes Sponsorship of State Tournament; Sectionals Implemented 1951 First Set of Rules Written and Adopted 1957 Rules Modified to help prevent Excessive Weight Loss 1958 Regionals Implemented 1973 National Federation Rules Adopted using Indiana Rules 1976 Semi-States Implemented 1981 First State Finals held at Market Square Arena 1996 Separate Tournament Initiated to determine Championship Team 2000 First Individual State Finals held at Bankers Life Fieldhouse 2013 State Championship Team again determined at Individual State Finals Indiana State High School Championships Sponsored by Indiana University YearWinner Coach 1922 Terre Haute Wiley................

Brown Mental Attitude Award Beginning with the 1985 tournament, the mental attitude award in wrestling was named after Ward E. Brown, the IHSAA’s fourth commissioner. Mr. Brown served as commissioner from 1976 to 1983. He also served as assistant commissioner from 1969 to 1976, and while principal of Crawfordsville High School, he served as a member of the IHSAA Board of Control in 1967-68. During his term as commissioner, the IHSAA Wrestling State Finals moved to Market Square Arena in 1981 and enjoyed tremendous growth. Previously, the award was known as the Harold F. Mumby Award from 1966 to 1971 and was presented to the outstanding wrestler in the state meet by the Indiana High School Wrestling Coaches Association. The award was named in honor of the Bloomington High School coach of 10 state championship wrestling teams. From 1972 to 1984, the IHSAA Executive Committee renamed and presented the Harold F. Mumby Award for Mental Attitude. The recipient of this award, who is nominated by his principal and coach, must excel in mental attitude, scholarWard E. Brown ship, leadership and athletic ability in wrestling. Indiana Farm Bureau Insurance, the IHSAA corporate partner, will IHSAA Commissioner present a $1,000 scholarship to the school in the name of the recipient. 1976-83 Year 1963-64 1964-65 1965-66 1966-67 1967-68 1968-69 1969-70 1970-71 1971-72 1972-73 1973-74 1974-75 1975-76 1976-77 1977-78 1978-79 1979-80 1980-81 1981-82 1982-83 1983-84 1984-85 1985-86 1986-87 1987-88 1988-89 1989-90 1990-91 1991-92 1992-93 1993-94 1994-95 1995-96 1996-97 1997-98 1998-99 1999-00 2000-01 2001-02 2002-03 2003-04 2004-05 2005-06 2006-07 2007-08 2008-09 2009-10 2010-11 2011-12 24 Name Rex Ryker John (Randy) Goss Larry Smith Mickey Janes Dale Barnard Warren Gamble John Smith Henry Clouse Jim Cornwell John Hobbs Norman Hudson Bud Palmer Vincent Keszei James Runyon Nelson Almond Mark Harbold Ron Baker Frank Patacsil Thomas Doyle Glenn Glogas Fred Johnson David Locke Craig Campbell Lance Lantz Terry Kissel Matt Morin Matt Koontz Eddie Palmer Jon McClain Tony Roush Matthew Armentano Josh Hutchens Tony Currie Derrick Miller Jared Williams Erik LeBeau Ben Faurote Marcus Schontube J.T.
