I hope so, but a resurgence, most likely would occur in the winter. I'm really hating that prospect.

Any of you two have a daughter? While the gesture is nice, calling a female wrestler a babe is a sign of ignorance. These ladies work hard for the recognition and are blazing a trail to bring the fastest growing high school sport to the forefront in WV high school athletics. Joke, make fun, laugh.....

How do we accurately determine toughness of a region? Lets review some facts: 1. Oak Glen won AA/A region 1 over Fairmont Senior. Oak Glen also beat Fairmont Senior in the Cameron Tournament. 2. Oak Glen walked in with 14 wrestlers, only 5 were ranked in the top 10 on the February 5 Coaches' indivi...

Some good points made here on both sides of the issue. I think before we entertain the idea of a LCQ tournament, we fix the regional alignments. I believe that issue would take care of a lot of problems. I both like and dislike the idea of a LCQ... in some ways it reminds me of the "everyone ge...

The WVSSAC needs to figure this out. The Northern teams (particularly in Region 1) are at a ginormus disadvantage compared to teams like Point PL and Independence when it comes to taking a full team to the state tournament year in and year out. Region 1 is LOADED every year and no wonder, when you ...

How cute

Region I is a bear for most weight classes.

I know a lot of wrestlers did not compete in their conference tournaments due the flu and/or injuries This weekend. After all, next weekend is when it’s going to count most. Why risk an existing injury, becoming more sick if you have the flu, or infecting everyone else? How about we leave the confer...

Supposed to start this afternoon... postponed until tomorrow morning. Will complete all matches in one day.

Like this as well... however, we need to somehow make them more accurate. In a few areas, there are kids ranked in the wrong weight class that have been in their new weight class for a few weeks now. I know it’s hard to keep track sometimes though.

Fairmont Senior wins dual over Parkersburg 40-30.

Supposed to start at 6:00 if anyone is interested.

The funny thing is... Zach doesn't care that he's not ranked. I believe he gets snubbed because he doesn't go to all these other tournaments, but that's because his focus is on football. Let that sink in a little bit... he focuses on football and is still this good at wrestling. Zach is a great kid ...

Okay, internet tough guy. His response was to someone else. Therefore, your response to him saying "pardon me" was odd, given the fact that he wasn't talking to you. Perhaps it is you who need to work on your reading comprehension skills. :lol: I was simply correcting what I had originall...

What they said...

I have glanced through many brackets and will do again in greater detail later. 1. I see than many schools had their JVs participating. In the past, I recall only FSHS' JVs participating. This is a GREAT improvement to the Winner's Choice and will help make these JVs better and/or keep them involve...

Some people are just obsessed with Frazier. LOL Is WV wrestling really getting so mundane that we have to create these “what if” posts about one or two particular wrestlers every other week? God forbid the three time state champ doesn’t blow everyone out of the water every single time he steps on th...

We do our best and take pride in having one of the best tournaments and the food to go along with it. LOL Thanks to a lot of parents and volunteers, we make it the best every year.

Many schools of thought. Opinions vary as to what is BEST for the team. I shall try to stay as factual as I can. 1. Two seasons ago, Hall went to Ironman ALONE. He placed 7th. This placement more than likely PAVED the way for Creese and Moore to JOIN Hall at Ironman the following season. No Hall to...

Watched Hall this past weekend when he won the Cameron Invitational... dominant!

That would be a good idea.

I agree the above hypothetical matches would be great to watch for fans of wrestling. However, fans of wrestling often get caught up in what they would like to see instead of what is good for a particular wrestler and/or his/her team. Though an individual wrestler steps onto the mat by him/herself, ...

Don't know where you got that info, but that's not happening.

Fairmont is a tough place for student athletes. If one wants to play football, FSHS appears to be the place to be. However, if one wants to wrestle and go to the WSAZ like they did in middle school, East Fairmont or North Marion is the better place. I would send my kids down to Bridgeport and get t...

Wait... are "matcoach90" and "13wrestler" the same person? Ha Um, no... reading is your friend. Okay, internet tough guy. His response was to someone else. Therefore, your response to him saying "pardon me" was odd, given the fact that he wasn't talking to you. Perhaps...

No wrestler transferred to fairmont senior this year. Two wrestlers were in 8th grade at east middle and chose to go to fshs. Everyone is offered that opportunity. So no transfer. A few years back two wrestlers transferred away from fshs in the same year. I can name no one else that has transferred...

I believe Waynesburg, PA is coming again... they usually have a few nationally ranked kids.

We all bring what we have on that day and try to put our best foot forward. Most teams aren't 100% with their line-ups at this point. There were more than one or two good teams in this tournament. Braxton put 8 in the championship finals and placed all 13 starters. Perhaps the best thing to do is g...
