Don't leave it up to the refs! You go to dominate everybody and everything! Wrestle for the pin and you will get the win! Indeed. Once they get the Least Amount of Time on the Mat (LATM) award up and running, all of the wrestlers will be going for it and the refs will play little role in the matche...

All you have to do is click on the link. It comes straight from the rule book. I have known all of the point totals and advancement point totals since I was 12. I have family that directed middle school and large high school tournaments for over 25 years. If you look at the state tournament, it is s...

Thanks Doc. I was brought up around high school tournaments and know many people that have run them. Hopefully those guys can learn something by clicking on the link.

How exactly were you baffled?

Good luck implementing that. Let's just make everything just like a peewee tournament.

Will someone please let Elkins know that they only uploaded the team scores and the 106 weight class.

Isn't in between 170 and 195?

One class take 32 to the state tournament and place 8.

Rankings don't mean anything. We already have teams not wrestling other teams. Just imagine all the ducking wrestlers that will go on. The regions could definitely be more fair. A/AA region one is way tougher than the others but so what. In closing, rankings are garbage and you will never make every...

Ok, the time is now. 1. The coaches need to get more involved in the rankings that take place all season long. 2. Giving 5th and 6th ranked kids a shot at the state tournament needs to be implemented. In addition, there will be a bigger cluster in AA/A once the AAA schools drop down and the AA/A re...

I agree with bearhug that they should change the finals order. Make it random or draw for the starting point. But to say that no one wants to watch 78 or 285 is wrong. Personally, I like 78 because it is always tough. 285 is always exciting but many fans start on their way out before 285 and that's ...

I can't wait until bearhugger runs his own tournament. I seriously doubt he ever has or is smart enough to do so. Clearly, you have no COMMON SENSE!

Well your statement shows that you know nothing about wrestling and that you are a "no show" for that tournament. Did you even wrestle?

The Winner's Choice is tougher than the State Tournament every year.

I heard five schools dropped out because the bogus entry fee and admission fee of paying for 3 or 4 sessions in a two day tournament. Its a good tournament don't get me wrong. Entry fees are bogus? The wsaz raised theirs also. So will you complain about their bogus entry fee also? Plus the Winner's...

It might be time to redefine the populations that cut off between AAA and AA and then again between AA and A. Also, go with three different state tournaments. This would help the region problem by having AAA, AA and A regions. Also, it might make some A schools feel better about starting a team.......

There is gambling in HS wrestling?
