Re: AA/A ranked wrestlers per region
How would you redraw them? Everyone wants to say "redraw the regions" but no one wants to give an example of how they should be redrawn to make them more "fair". And that is the problem. The idea of some people is that "fair" means making sure more R1 wrestlers qualify...

Re: AA/A ranked wrestlers per region
There’s a couple options as others have pointed out. Regions need redraw or possibly look at 2 regions and take the top 8 from each. I’m not the only one with an issue wrestling out of region 1. Many have expressed issues with the difficulties of qualifying out of Region 1. It’s not an excuse it’s ...

Re: AA/A ranked wrestlers per region
No one said wrestlers from R2-4 weren't worthy? The post was pointing out how one region is more unbalanced than the other 3. What was said was: "Southern regions are weak as hell" "good quality wrestlers" (in reference to R1 wrestlers) "less deserving wrestlers" (in r...

Re: AA/A ranked wrestlers per region
The whole point that a/aa region one is much tougher to qualify for the state tournament. I have seen no argument that disputes this. Actually I believe the point was to imply that wrestlers from R2, R3 and R4 are not as worthy of being at states as R1 wrestlers. That is the way it came off anyway....

Re: 138 AAA - A Case Study in Needed Improvement
Region 4 has FIVE ranked wrestlers in the top ten. ONLY Four wrestlers qualify for the state tournament from region 4. One ranked wrestler (Region 4) is staying home and not getting to go to the state tournament already. The process has put him out before the wrestling begins. What you are suggesti...

Re: AA/A ranked wrestlers per region
I’m sure counties from region 1 wouldn’t mind the extra travel time especially when it could be the mean you qualify and additional 3-4 wrestlers for the state tournament. I wouldn't be too sure. If they did then they would be publicly lobbying for a move. I have not heard of any of them doing so. ...

Re: AA/A ranked wrestlers per region
What is a "southern" or "northern" region? OK, Region 1 is definitely northern and Region 3 is definitely southern, but 2 is in the middle of the state and 4 is mostly middle or southern. Also, a lot of this "better region" talk is influenced by athletic directors and c...

Re: WSAZ Numbers by Weight Class
Might have been better off adding another weight around the 94-102 range as opposed to adding the 215 class - at least for this season By my count there are 15 JV wrestlers in 94lbs, meaning only 49 teams had at least one 94 to enter. That leaves 24 of the 73 teams entered in the tournament without...

Coaches, please send me your rosters by Thursday evening to wrestlingcoachd@gmail.com. I will be using them to try and balance the pools as much as possible. Due to mid-week competition and Christmas dinner gains, there will be a +2 weight allowance. Thanks.

Thanks for the clarification coach. Didn't want to specify that it was your tournament because I didn't want it to look like a complaint. I have seen the format used before and never really knew what the consolation champ was for. Thanks again.

What the heck is a consolation champ? Had a wrestler get this this past weekend. He asked me what a consolation champ is and I had no answer for him.

Re: Opening Week Matches in Jeopardy - ADs vs Referees
I guess my question would be, what is the "same amount"? While I sympathize with official's needing to make a decent amount, it also needs to be noted that if the cost of officials goes up, so does the cost of entry fees, gate fees and concessions. A quick look at the front page shows that...
