I quess turning down full ride schollies to wrestle at Iowa State, Michigan State, Missouri, and Indiana doesn't help your rankings. Better to be a BUCKEYE anyway!

Three area wrestlers will put undefeated records on the line Saturday at the Merrillville Semistate.
Merrillville heavyweight Dexter Larimore (34-0), a state runner-up each of the last two seasons; Hanover Central 140-pounder Andrew Howe (44-0), the state runner-up at 130 last season; and Rensselaer 160-pounder Ryan Kaufman (38-0), all have yet to lose this season.
In all, 168 wrestlers converge on the semistate, scheduled to begin at 9 a.m. with the finals at 4 p.m., with the top four in each weight class advancing to the state finals at Conseco Fieldhouse next weekend. Galka (103), Anderson (112), Howe (130), Larimore (heavyweight) and Mishawaka 171-pounder Ian Hinton (34-0) are returning semistate champions.
