Share the names. Contribute.

I think you misinterpreted.
I wasn't criticizing. I was just saying it's going to be a tough weight class. The laughter was excitement at how tough the class is going to be.

AAA 120 and there are still names missing there.

I think he was meaning athletes that graduated in 2018. Incoming freshmen.

You're right, I overlooked the "class of" part somehow.

Hunter Delong at WVU.

Is Adams not at WVU anymore?

Nobody knows what that means. Use English words.

Health and safety arguments are much easier for non-wrestling administrators to understand. Also easier for them to misunderstand and have a panic attack over. Arguments like that can easily demonize the sport as a whole, in their eyes, or lead to overly restrictive rules surrounding weight cutting...

Thanks Kenny I tried to give some helpful hints of how we are doing so well and what works. But in life, you will always have people that are not happy with themselves. They are jealous of other people’s accomplishments or just did not make that first string line up when they were in High school. O...

You call it complaining while some call it a discussion. What a perfect place to do it but on a forum about wrestling. If you dont understand the big deal with the lopsided brackets then your not paying attention very well. It's not that big a deal. Two of them are down there because they lost at r...

Record is meaningless. A padded schedule can easily influence that. What matters is who is standing on the podium.
If a kid is talking about his record at the end of the year, he probably has some work to do.
What matters: state qualifier, state placewinner, state champion.

Cameron Pine, Washington vs. Kaleb Simpkins Wheeling Park

Pine v. Simpkins, and Casto v. Starkey in the bottom half Quarters. Then, the winners of those two in the semi's. 170AAA is loaded.

1. To put the "small schools in Calfiornia still have 1100 students" statement into perspective. Large high schools in California have over 5000 students. That's a difference of 4000. My point was more about the ability to field a team. A "small" California school with 1000 wres...

Oh, none of y'all have ever been late for anything before and had someone cut you some slack? Official correspondence (tournament flyer) said 0830, so 0830 it is.
I agree with the team being allowed to weight in and compete, without question.
They're kids for goodness sake.

Based on the regional results, the AAA state tournament will have 4 byes this season. Region 2 at 113. Region 3 at 106, 220 and 285. Lets just leave this all as is. Blame it on a declining population, leading to a decrease in the number of AAA schools in the state. At this point, arguments against ...

Food for thought... According to the current rankings compiled by forum members, I have compiled a table comparing each region to the others according to the number of ranked wrestlers in each region. This leaves the regions with the following standing, when ranked in accordance to their individual ...

1. Patterson (3 wins over the field and assumed region champion) 2. Williams (projected region champion) 3. Devaney (projected region champion but has most losses against the field listed) 4.

I'd put my vote in for the little gyms, and concession stands ran by wrestling moms.
Webster and Richwood come to mind.
It just sits right with me for some reason.

I had missed the Moore/Devaney matchup.
170
1. Patterson
2. Moore
3. Devaney
4. Williams
5. Daugherty
6. Kotsko

Any one could win it.

170 at WSAZ Devaney beat Kotsko and Patterson beat Devaney. Devaney beat Daugherty last year at state, but they haven’t met this year so far. Weight class is tangled up. Williams beat Daugherty 5-3 last week. I'd go: 170 AA/A 1. Patterson 2. Devaney 3. Williams 4. Daugherty 5. Moore 6.Kotsko Any on...

WSAZ doesn't look bad this year.
Ovaec is a conference tournament...

Why are the Hensons boys wrestling out of PA and not here in WV Well that answer is as plain as the nose in your face! Our money, West Virginia money that is, is good enough for Sammy to line his pickets with, but our schools and high school wrestling programs are not good enough for Royalty like t...

The "second best" wrestler on a given team is also sometimes the second to 6th best in the whole state. The failures of people to be able to sort out these facts and recognize them differentiates us. I would suspect you were one that stayed home from school due to it being cold. :lol: :lo...

The traditionalists can still have their fun and strive for second place. We need to take a hybrid approach to the situation at hand. YOU want the second best wrestler from their own teams to compete in the state and regional tournaments tournament, meaning the BEST they could ever do is second pla...

Dake beat the #10 ranked wrestler in the world, Davit Tlashadze, to win Paris. It's unfair that he doesn't get to wrestle in the Olympics just because he is JV to Jordan Burroughs. We should be able to enter our JV wrestlers in the Olympics. The same goes for Jake Varner, who was an Olympic Champio...

My policy is when somebody compares a high school wrestler in WV to a world class athlete, I move on. The best one is when people bring up Dave Shultz as an excuse why they do not need to encourage their wrestlers to weight train. Stop trying to discredit his first hand experience in the matter by ...
