The seeding meeting for the regional champs will be sometime this week or weekend. Then they will be on trackwrestling. I'm not sure if they will be shared here, but I'm sure someone will. But if you go to trackwrestling and search wvywa you will see it, but it's not up yet

Totally agree... my son is still competing in the middle school division. However, he's finding it hard to locate practice partners and other tournaments to attend that have more in a bracket than two kids. For example, we now are looking for a tournament so he can stay fresh and get mat time betwe...

At some weights I'm sure jr states had the studs, but those same studs will be at wvywa as well. Pa has states after ours. Ohio has their states the same time. As numbers yes we don't have as many kids, but to say it's to late. I disagree. Also this year with jr states not being on a regional date i...

Congrats Caleb Rae on your state championship!!! Way to wrestle!!

Nash all the way

What's his cert say?

Well yeah no one is making money in wood county, look at the numbers. With 700-800 kids you made some Change for sure. The point is each year the regionals is hosted by another team in the region and they get the money. Of course first few years of any organization as mike Carman has said it will ta...

I take offense to your post. The WVYWA association is not the only entity promoting youth wrestling in this state. Thanks Brent Sams No reason for you to take offense. Nothing was directed at you in any way shape or form. If there are other entities promoting youth wrestling across the entire state...

Brooke is a weight qualifier and that's the weekend if he 18th

Mike Carman is the president. Or contact your regional chairman and go from there

I'm pretty sure that's he case. If you are 12 in 6th you will wrestle 11-12 but if you are 7th you are in middle school. Im90 percent sure

Or they can just wait til the dual and go on track or flo and figure it out

Intensity won the elite division 5-0. That's all I know.

Yes as long as you live and go to school in WV. You can go to the regionals, but your regionals only.

This thing is gonna be a disaster. Instead of insulting everyone that questions it, why don't you take a web building class and put some updates and info on your site? I tried to register my kid 3 times and it pops up error. The site shows 5 kids registered. I know all the people that pushed for th...

It's on trackwrestling.com

As far as I know there isn't true 2nd. Because they as far as I know do not get seeded. Only the champions do

I don't understand why people in certain parts of the state compare WSAZ to a state tournament? They aren't even close to the same. I am sure WSAZ is a good tourny. However, many very good wrestlers do not have the ability to attend, so why do people keep saying that it is considered by many as the...

I doubt your kid is scared, but you that could be a different story. Why not just go and win it if it's that easy? Never heard of skipping a tournament, especially a state tournament regardless of youth, me, or high school because it's easy. Why just not wrestle at all this year except that one toug...

My son uses his chin quite often, but only when kids refuse to wrestle on bottom. When they ball up and not move got to get them to open up somehow. If they don't like it they will eventually open up. Now not doing a move is one thing, but when you try over and over and the kid just turtles and for ...

As far as I heard its at the same location. Looking to change in the future. Also they are having from what I understand a meeting this weekend. Might be some changes once that is all said and done

How much are you looking for?

Nvm read it in another post.

Might be a stupid question, but watched the flo video on him and I thought he said NJ wanted him kicked out for representing team Ohio? Why is he representing team Ohio? And not WV?

It might increase the numbers, but if they can't handle a wearing a singlet I'm sure they can't handle wrestling in general. I'm sure change is good, but I say stick to singlets.

With anything new there are bugs and easy ones to fix. Competition was top notch, best I think I have seen in awhile on WV. There is no turning back and this is the future of WV wrestling and I'm glad to be a part and have my son win the first ever WVYWA for his age and weight. We all made history i...

Wheeling had around 40 kids including middle school. That's my reasoning behind it but in sure that's not the norm and could be worked out

Congrats young man' watched him wrestle his 5th place match. Very strong and talented esp. For 6 practices.

Three bands are not nearly enough. It should be based on how many kids qualify. Because with 8 mats and a team with a lot of kids could be up on multiple mats, but I agree with your point on the bands.

Southpaw. Really. Do a dual on champions. I know off the top of my head atleast 5 that won jr states lost. Not a good start, but I won't degrade myself to your level. It was a great tournament amazing matches. Just a troll trying to rain on a parade that can't get rained on. Been to both WVYWA all t...
