Re: South /PHS predictions

I agree South83. Rod Oldham was a very good man and always cheered me on in the summer tourneys. We even had a heart to heart talk after I won the WV Open States. He did not care that we were once rivalries, just a good man. But Joe, will be like a dad always... but that day ... we lost to South.. ...

Any favorite memories from South vs. PHS match? Most exciting match between the two schools? The 81 or 82 match when a senior hwt from PHS a senior and was heavily favored went against a young South soph and South needed a pin if I recall and came out and got the pin, that’s the loudest I ever reca...

As usual no crowd control on arena floor. Fans, coaches, wrestlers and medical staff obstructing view of fans n seats. Must medical staff ( 5 staff per mat), stand right n front of each mat. Can they not kneel down? Especially when asked by a parent trying to watch their son wrestle???? Pitiful Agr...

Re: I may ruffle a few feathers

Huntington Big Sandy Arena just has terrible viewing compared to Wesbanco Arena. Personally would love states be moved to Wheeling, Charleston or Morgantown. I’m sure coach Archer does a lot of work with the tourney in Huntington, but sure be nice to view the matches better.

Congrats to him, wished he would have went to WVU but I’m sure that’s a tough decision.


Maybe they should have recruited him and made an offer? His top 5 were Wisconsin, Ohio State, Penn State, Oklahoma State and Va Tech, in no order.

Playing devil's advocate here.... 1. If allowing JV into states is the answer, then does that increase the complaints that wrestlers with a losing record are getting into states? To be fair, outside of a handful of wrestlers, very few JV wrestlers will be much of a contender at states. Is a body in...

Re: AAA 120 Travesty of Competition

The problem is not with the number of kids at each weight, it's the number of schools per region. AAA only has one region with 8 schools. The rest have 7 schools. While the smallest # of schools in AA/A regions is 15, next has 16 and 2 have 17. There is no balance between AA/A and AAA. This is the ...

It’s sad that the ssac doesn’t want to do anything but collect a paycheck. In Florida top 2 from district/sectionals move on to regions and than top 2 from regions moves on to states. Leaving just 8 teams for states. State duals is optional so teams don’t have to participate if they don’t want to. ...

There is not a true South fan out there that even looks at this seriously. It is someone who sees South vs everyone else and that is ridiculous. It doesn’t work like this.
