:lol: something as simple as the price of a ticket is this difficult? Yet people are wanting changes to regions and &*^&(? Haha will take rocket scientist to figure that out it seems. And crazy that one price says $50 and then the lip service email about not being able to change ticket pric...

Just spoke with the Mountain Health Arena Box Office. They will be open tomorrow starting 10 AM until 8 pm. Did not check on prices for single sessions tickets, but for All Sessions passes (despite their website listing the price at $45) the price at the box office will be $50. I didn't ask if they ...

Time is running out and a seemingly simple question for those in charge to answer remains. Is the cost at the gate/box office the face value price or since everything is digital, will there be the same fees added to the cost?

Every pill split Kehler/Broyhers.

Well you are speculating but if he is roughly the same age as a HS junior then touting him as a freshman is misleading. If he was 15 in June or July of 2021, that would actually make him quickly approaching 17 in about 4 months or less. That would be the average Junior I would think and that was wh...

This really puts it into perspective how good those Oak Glen teams were from 1997-2009. They had 12 Region I finalists in 2000. Yes they were good for quite a while …But that being said, South had 13 in regional finals very recently. Not taking anything away from South they are a great team but, co...

I found a video of him wrestling in the 16-U division in July of 2021. I think it is safe to assume that he would have been 15 years old at that time. If this is the case, he would be at least 16 years now, which is only one year older than most everyone in his grade. He could have started school a...

To Answer the original question KDunbar said Fairmont Senior has never been a powerhouse of a program and people started going after him. But the guy is completely wrong. Fairmont Senior, as well as East Fairmont, and North Marion have all shown dominance in the sport. Wood County has the most stat...

The smart money is probably on this, but Lowe surprised everybody at last years state tournament. Can he do it again? However, the brackets may not be as favorable this year.

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. Well, this is not the whole point that I or I believe others have been talking about from the beginning. The whole point is the original statement, "This hurts ...

Well, right now there are 16 wrestlers in AAA and 16 wrestlers in AA/A or 32 combined total. How would you set up regional competition and how many from each region. Surely not keeping the current regions and combining them at the state tournament (which would give 32 per weight class). That would n...

Wrestlers with losing records making the state tournament is exactly why there should be just one class. The state is watered down enough We might have found an area where we are close to being in agreement. Although 2 bigger regions and sending eight from each might be a better fix than combining ...

I’m not disagreeing that they have some great wrestlers. They just have no depth. 6 of the champs were from one school, Point Pleasant. It’s easier for teams in weaker regions to qualify more wrestlers than it is for region 1 teams. This is proven by the FACT that region 1 had the most ranked wrest...

2016 Roane was runner-up to Indy 131 pts. You can look at the accumulative if you go to home page state tourny results I apologize, my mistake. I was thinking Roane was small enough to be in single A and therefore listed East Rairmont as #2. In any case the scores of the two are close and Roane is ...

We'll have to see what "upsets" occur that changes expectations. But I see it as a different 2 team race and with both teams performing about as expected (and without trying to guess what bonus points will be scored) I come up with only a single point seperating #1 and #2.

For reference, these garbage regions produced 11 of the 14 champions last year, with region III and region I each having 3 and region IV having 8. What bums. I'm surprised they are even allowed to show their faces with those cake walks :lol: :lol: :lol: "Beware of the ringworm!" -- Spence...

They've never been balanced, if Point Pleasant or Independence were in Region 1 the last 10 years, I'd love to know how many wrestlers they would've brought to Huntington year in and year out. And yes I'm saying the southern regions are weaker than hell Those Indy teams would've probably brought th...

I believe that the won-loss records of all the wrestlers from AAA Region 1 that are listed in the State Brackets are their records prior to the results of the regionals. It appears that in regions 2 and 4 the software used automatically updated the records listed on the regional brackets as the tour...

So if 1 and 2 were moved to separate sides of the bracket, then why is Spitznogle and Blessing on the same side at 138? Make no sense at all. The seperating of a clear #1 and #2 was not based on the rankings seen on this site. There was a group of AA/A coaches who met on 2/19 and apparently it was ...

PHD is right. The more divisions there are to compete in, the more watered down our state will become. There should be one division, considering our state population is relatively small. Wrestling is growing with the advent of the UFC and other mma organizations. Participation will continue to grow...

Unless I'm mistaken, it appears the coaches committee in AAA was fortunate in how things worked out (that is if one feels the brackets worked out to be "fair" based on the pill drawn, which I personally do). Essentially, every weight class has the brackets for pill 3, which I'm assuming wa...

I believe the thought from the other thread was to still have two state champions per weight and to have one team champion per division, for a total of four team champions. I would be in favor of the change. Adding more competition to the current AAA side would benefit everyone from a competitive s...

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...

Be careful, you could get what you asked for. Someone out there might just be awaiting their chance for payback.
(Actually, it's not on here anywhere. I called the schools. Thanks Brent for confirming it for me.)

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...

WV HS wrestling needs 4 divisions. You will still have your two brackets like now. The only difference will be it will balance things out much better. right now some AAA region brackets have 5 wrestlers. A/AA regions have up to 18 teams in them. You can look at the numbers and easily figure out how...

Mr. Bill Archer joined Mat Time to discuss the new modified pill system and clarified #1 and #2 will be separated, when needed, not necessarily every single weight class.

Please take these facts for what they're worth and carry on. This post snuck in before my last post. What I had previously typed (but my posts keep getting lost because the forum keeps asking for my log in after I have already logged in) is that, after looking at the issue more closely I believe th...
