From the Editor: There has been much discussion on this forum about this year's the regional realignments, the relative strength of the regions, and its success (or lack of) in identifying qualifiers for the State Tournament.

The real fly in the ointment is East Fairmont's Cassucio. We all know of the many ranked wrestlers in both AAA and AA/A he has defeated and/or out performed in tournaments. Someday this problem will not longer be a problem. :) JV wrestlers: Yes, it is unfortunate that there are some JV wrestlers wh...

Explain to me how you can have in 2 weight classes, 2 individuals move UP in rankings, one by 1 spot, another by 3, by beating non ranked wrestlers the week before, another RANKED wrestler, different weight class, beating a non ranked wrestler and moving DOWN 2 spots, Feb 2 Weight Class 126 1.

The 160 weight class had the #1 ranked vs #5 ranked match. Are you referring to AAA #5 Frisco defeating AA/A #1 Booth? Different classifications. I don't see why Booth should drop after losing to someone he is not ranked with, and don't see why Frisco should raise. As for 126, 132, 138 - which divi...

It is there on the front page.
Also near the top of the Youth Tournament page

I'm sure some of the info may be out of date.

I post what I get

Received the entries tonite, posted on the front page. Agree, looks like it will be a nice tournament. 16 man brackets, place 8. Seeds published, brackets will not be drawn until after weigh-ins in case there is a scratch. Looks like all A teams represented except: Clay Battelle Fayetteville Moorefi...

I did receive a rules document today, which is linked on the front page and in the Youth Tournament section

It occurs to me that we can know who and who is not on the schedule.

We can not know, and there is no reason to speculate why a given team is or is not on the schedule...

Since you mentioned it, yeah, I remember her.

I was coaching Preston's youth team at the time. She pinned Preston's Chris Wilson in a youth tourney once. A few years later Chris went on to win the AAA 135 Championship in 1998.

Well bearhugger, I must disagree: Most of your arguments hang on the rankings. "an avenue for the top JV..." "He has defeated numerous wrestlers that are ranked in both AAA and AA/A..." "Independence had two wrestlers (Lawson and Kump) win the BNI and beat ranked wrestlers.....

Where these Ind. rankings not started by a poster on WVMat....if I remember correctly he quit posting and Yosemaite Sam took them over and done his all class rankings and the coaches took the rankings in their class. someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I should stay out of this but... 24 teams per region, 32 man bracket Put your 24 varsity wrestlers in the bracket at the regional tournament if able and fill the empty spots with your better JV wrestlers.
