Re: Seed with Speed

dunbar you are correct. panther coach you are correct in last years 3rd placer would be higher than last years state champ if he has a head to head win. our tournament is a top 3 tournament in florida and draws the top teams from 1a,2a,3a. so placing at our tournament helps with the multi divisions ...

Re: State Duals Results

I love a state duals championship but gator is right. they need to get dates out as soon as possible so schedules can be changed. also there needs to be a regional dual tournament where the champion and runner up qualify for state duals.

Re: Why is there not seperation of A and AA for the state Tournament?

Why can there not be 3 brackets and then 3 team state champs? Each class will be equally represented and at the end let all 3 classes wrestle off for an overall champ. Not real difficult brackets. Just food for thought. Mostly all other sports are split and each has a true champion per class. what ...

Re: OVAC Rankings

In the past the coaches did a good job of seeding. OVAC is trying a new system with a closed door committee. We will need to give it a year or two to see how the new system plays out. How did Wheeling Park do at Beast of the East this weekend? I can’t find results. . http://www.trackwrestling.com

Re: Why is there not seperation of A and AA for the state Tournament?

Not all was there but 14 teams with 9 jv teams and one weight class had 4 kids. Most had 8 or less. 145 had the most with 14 with 4 being backups. 285 had 13 with 4 being backups. Even with the other teams single a would be lucky to have 2 weights reach 16.

Re: Why is there not seperation of A and AA for the state Tournament?

I have been asking this question as to why A and AA are not seperated at the state tournament? It seems we have enough schools in each of the classes, but may need to realign regions. This would give the schools more of a fighting chance to have a AA or A State Champion at their school. Or if we ar...

Your right we have the same amount of scholarships but you can’t compare wvu to the top 3 schools. I agree 1-2 aa a year would be a good goal for wvu. Which would put us closer to teams like nc state who finished 17th with 1 aa. lock haven finished 18th with 2 aa. Wisconsin finished 21st with 2 aa. ...

a high school gym is never going to compete with those facilities. You have to look at how much it cost to have those facilities for a weekend compared to a a high school.
