Re: Two WVYWA tourneys on the same day

Beast,

I appreciate the kind things you have said about both tournaments. The cougars also attended the Fairmont tournament last year and hope to get to do so again this year.

I have already reached out to the Fairmont coaches and hope that we can get some dates changed.

Re: WVYWA Regionals

It is up to the regional chairs when to host their tournament. Region 6 is on that date so all local teams can continue to support the Parkersburg State tournament and the new WVYWA State Tournament.
