BRAZIL —
Gregory S. Stultz, a 2006 graduate of Northview, was a U.S. Marine corporal killed in combat in Afghanistan on Feb. 19, 2010.
To keep the memory of this former Knights wrestler alive, the high school and Northview coach Dan Mikesell began putting on an annual round-robin tournament in 2010 — known as the Gregory S. Stultz Memorial Tourney — and this year’s version was won by 2011 champion Martinsville on Saturday.
The Artesians defeated Plainfield 47-34, Northview 53-12, Terre Haute South 51-35, South Vermillion 60-18 and Terre Haute North 53-12 in posting a 5-0 record. South finished second at 4-1 and Northview was third at 3-2.
“It’s absolutely my favorite tournament of the year,” Mikesell told the Tribune-Star. “Greg was so into wrestling. He got kind of a late start as a sophomore, but he really dedicated himself. The guys from our team who won, that was a good tribute to Greg. … It’s a great tournament and it’s a great tribute to a great person.”
Northview’s individual champions were senior Zach Williams in the 220-pound weight class and senior Justin Sampson at 285. Sampson’s final victory of the day was a pin he secured in 19 seconds.
“Zach made a commitment this past summer to make the varsity lineup at 220,” Mikesell noted. “He had to lose several pounds to get down there and I’m real proud of his effort. … Justin had some good wins against some decent opponents today. It seems like he’s getting better. He’s aggressive and he’s in great shape.”
South’s title winners were sophomore Darin Pemberton at 113, sophomore David Lewis 120 and junior Phoenix Adams at 138. All five of Adams’ victories came via pinfall.
“He wrestled great,” South coach Gabe Cook said of Adams. “He’s finally settled into his weight class at 138. He did a great job for us.”
Representing Terre Haute North with championships were junior Tyler Gilmore at 152 and junior Ryan Moshak at 170. Moshak was the tournament’s only individual champion who had a less-than-perfect record. He ended up 4-1.
“They wrestled very well,” assessed North coach Mark Frisz, whose injury-plagued team went 0-5 for the day. “Tyler is finally coming into his own. He got off to a slow start today, but he really got better as the day went on and finished strong against a really tough kid from Martinsville. … The Martinsville kid that Ryan lost to had two losses. I’m glad for Ryan because he works really, really hard and overall today wrestled very consistently. It’s disappointing that he got that one loss, but I’m glad he was still able to pick up the [first-place] trophy to take home.”
Regarding his team as a whole, Frisz is still awaiting the return of some of his injured wrestlers. Without four of them Wednesday, the Patriots lost a dual meet to West Vigo for the first time in 10 years.
“Gavin John is back,” Frisz noted. “He wrestled 120 [Saturday]. He’s going to go down to 113 when he can get his weight down. Hopefully, this coming week we’ll get J.J. Low and Zach Schmidt back. We’re gradually getting our team back together.”
South Vermillion ended up 1-4, with its lone victory coming against North.

Sycamores bow out of MVC Tournament
Indiana State’s baseball was out of pitching, and after a loss to Wichita State on Thursday, the Sycamores were out of second-chances too at the Missouri Valley Conference baseball tournament. What the Sycamores weren’t out of was heart, guts and clutch performances from some unlikely sources. But in the end, Friday’s elimination game rematch against the Shockers was a sampling of ISU’s season overall — the Sycamores were out of luck.

Luck having fun with his first OTAs
A year ago, quarterback Andrew Luck was unable to attend the Indianapolis Colts’ organized team activity practices due to school commitments at Stanford.
Luck, though, went on to have a stellar year for the Colts despite the lack of summer work with the team. Still, in a sense, he is a rookie during this year’s OTA workouts.
“These are my first OTAs. I missed these last year, so I think it’s great. It’s great to get on the field with the defense and trouble-shoot some stuff. Obviously, some of us ran some of this stuff [offense] at Stanford [under new offensive coordinator Pep Hamilton]. But to get out there with the defense and trouble-shoot some stuff is good,” Luck said Wednesday as the team wrapped up its first week of on-field voluntary practice sessions. - Colts hoping for more high marks on draft picks
