Re: South 2018-19
The lineup mentioned by truesouthfaninpburg grew up in parkersburg and went to the middle schools there so it could only be a bonus if someone else moved in town. No need to recruit, we do pretty good with out it. And the business you are talking about was opened in mineral wells several years befo...

I doubt there are any weak spots in their lineup this year. However, if there is, I'm sure some multi-time state champ's parent will open a business there or just mysteriously move there for some other off the wall reason.

Re: WSAZ Tournament dates?
Although its not listed yet, in the past I believe its usually begins on the third Friday in January, so that would make it January 19 and 20 this season, but thats just a guess.

Re: Is this for real???
So here’s the thing if wvssac awards him the championship they just opened the door for instant replay even though rules state the officials can’t look at video. Right or wrong when the match was over he did not win. Now anytime a wrestler can show video of a missed or bad call and can dispute the ...

Some kids that are good enough to wrestle maybe choose to pursue other sports in college. Just throwing that out there, not really sure myself.

Re: Controversial Matches
So with everything that has been said, the Hart-Ward match gets my vote as the worst officiated match ever. The officiating crew, Jeremy Callen, and the Winfield coaches (yes them too) should be ashamed of themselves .

Re: Controversial Matches
The "illegal" slam that cost Noah Adams a 4th state championship was terrible. So a wrestler performs an illegal move on another and that’s terrible call? That makes zero sense. Can’t have special considerations and rules for a special wrestler. Try again Disagree, kid wrestled the rest o...

Re: Controversial Matches
I don't know if I would use the word "controversial" since Hart clearly won the match. However I will say it has to be one of the worst officiated matches I have ever seen and speaks volumes about how terrible officiating is in West Virginia. I'm sure I'll hear the standard "if you t...

For the life of me I can't understand why the Winfield contingency wants to lay claim to a title that they clearly didn't win. Someone should have stepped up.

If i had to take a guess i would say that Indy made a replica of the wvssac 145 lb championship plaque and is ceremonially giving this to mr hart. no way the wvssac would reverse the decision....

Re: What would I do?
You could get middle school kids from the stands to do a better job than these guys did this year. Don't take up for them, they messed up and refused to fix it while they had a chance. I agree leave the kids out of it, but there are plenty of adults that need to step up, Winfield coaches included.

Re: Alex Hart
Why haven't we heard from any of the refs who frequent the board. I'd love to hear the thoughts of some the "I call the fall, I call the stall" bunch that are always talking about what a good job they do. Guess no one wants to step to the plate.

I've heard the refs had the wrong score and refused to change it in the 145 match. It's a shame for a kid to lose a match because of incompetent officiating, much less a state championship match.
