[quote="RegionOne_fan"]Greenbrier West is a very solid team no doubt. But look at Region 3 in Beartracks, and he can't come up with a 3rd or 4th kid to rank in many of the weight classes.[/quote

Now those are facts.

Some are gonna benefit from this new classification and some will Lose. Some won’t matter really. In my opinion, if the schools get classified the same as listed, then the only teams that benefit are the A@AA teams. Winning a championship becomes much easier, having taken away most of the better pr...

Who won??

I believe Lucas magnani of st Anthony’s New York won 4 winners choice outstanding wrestler awards for lower weights

Some of your logic amazes me. How many weight classes had 3 or more state placers from the same region? That is the definition of a tough region. Its typically not easy placing from a third or fourth region spot yet Region 1 had 5 weight classes with 3 placers. Region 4 had 0 weight classes with 3 p...

106 Dillon Perdue, Independence 113 Nathan Wood, Point Pleasant 120 Conner Blessing, Point Pleasant 126 Gunner Andrick, Point Pleasant 132 Braxton Smith, Nitro 138 Kolbie Hamilton, Fairmont Senior 145 Justin Bartee, Point Pleasant 152 Josh Woyan, Point Pleasant 160 Derek Raike, Point Pleasant 170 C...

terrible idea

wv wrestling is watered down enough!

I think your opinion on this completely depends on what you think the most important thing is when considering the state championships. For instance, if your highest concern is hoping to increase participation by allowing the most kids to experience what they consider as success (i.e. winning title...

I don't really care, just commenting on inaccuracy.... His statement was that the governors in the states of PA, KY, and VA were democrats, so you have not discredited his "theory" but supported it. My apologies for that. But what was the point of the RINO comment. Lighten up Lloyd! My co...

Lloyd, you still wearing your red hoodie to matches this season? Why do you ask?? I merely asked what rambling about Democrats and making a prejudice comment about a hijab have to do with wrestling?? Do you have an answer for any of that?? Politics has no place in a wrestling forum Mr. Moderator. 1...

Great ref. Better Person!

I couldn't agree more. It would help to not have a RINO in the Governors office, or at least have a state legislature willing to take action to curb the tinpot dictatorship he is running. What the heck are they up to? Nothing. It's all a facade. Just put your heads down and comply... or else. -G :r...

If they are worried about people let's split up all 3 classes and have true champions in all 3 classes now. Nah its watered down enough already and that would add more athletes to an already packed arena. If you are going to change it then an All-class system is the way to go with 32 man brackets. ...

I'm not sure I understand how just having districts in the very same geographic area and then also adding in AAA wrestlers helps out those 4 wrestlers (and not actually hurt them) getting to the state tournament. There has always been a sort of geographic disparity in terms of the "quantity of...

The reason (I’m not from their region so I’m not being biased) that Point does so good is because the have a team that wants to win at wrestling. All their kids look strong. Our team has one kid that participates out of season, the rest do whatever. A regional realignment to compensate for will to ...

I have been reading all the discussion about Region 1 being so dominant this season, a region very hard to qualify their wrestlers for the state tournament. As a matter of fact, out of the top 8 ranked wrestlers from the latest poll, Region 1 has 40 ranked. The nearest region for top 8 ranked wrest...

I was but I wasn't being sarcastic. Considering I had four other wrestlers on my team who did not qualify for States out of Region 1 AA, but they crushed wrestlers in other regions in both AA and AAA who made it to states, there's no doubt the road to Huntington is much tougher for Region 1 AA.

I guess Beartracks is no longer!

I am hoping this can happen...In the High School Polls, could the Year in School be added beside the wrestlers’ names? I’m curious to see this information while looking at the polls/rankings. Thoughts? Consult Bear Tracks Are you still doing beartracks?? Honestly I think you do a solid job. I was h...

FYI it's not a good idea to refer to high school athletes as overrated in a forum like this.

Yea, let's just encourage teams to have less wrestlers!!! Great idea bearhugger!! Oh and if you have another comment a red hoodie you could wear one bro.

Worry about your own rankings and quit criticizing others,
