Re: Strength of Regions AAA. Crunched the numbers

A while back everyone was in a snit about the re-alignment of the regions, so I did some number crunching on the subject and noticed something very interesting. Here is a breakdown of all placers for each grade by region Region 1 Freshmen: 5% Sophomores: 11% Juniors: 6% Senior: 7% Region 2 Freshmen...

Re: Region 4

Would someone that is very familiar with these new classifications help explain to me how they work and what is different from the old and who is in each conference or region or whatever? It would be greatly appreciated. The best way to see how the current regional alignment is different from the o...

Re: Braxton at Super 32

We shall wait and ponder the great mystery of life and weight classes. If last year is an indicator we can tell what weights wrestlers will be by listening to the Daddies complain about someone's attempt to rank the weight classes. If they don't rank someone who was out with an injury or played mul...

I have heard that neither are enrolled in a WV school. However, when you look at the "WV" entrants for Super 32, Jackson's name is in the group.

Frampton In Da House

Nitro's Paul Frampton is in the SUPER 32 House at 195.

195 has fewer wrestlers than some of the other weight classes, but it still has its share of ranked wrestlers.

Good opportunity to knock off some ranked opponents.
