The whole concept that someone hiding behind a screen name would call out a coach by name, criticize him for not doing what you demand that you have a right to within the time frame you think it should be done and then everyone else pile on to express your own opinion of how other people should be d...

I myself have always been in favor of a single class state tournament. As stated previously, take 8 from a region and fill a 32 man bracket.. Place top 8 at states instead of 6. Then you hand out your A, AA, & AAA team champions based off the top 3 scorers. The overall quality wrestling at the ...

This is also the same issue that Region 1 had for the better part of 30 years or more. This is nothing new. There will always be a region that is tougher than others and there will always be kids that are good enough to possibly place that don't make it, not just in WV, but in all states. In OHIO a...

Are the individual rankings really that important? Or just interesting for the fans to review, I know it may be about seeding for regionals but I don’t think rankings mean that much, time will tell who rises to the top. I know a few JVers that should be ranked ahead of who may be ranked but that’s ...

I am also not trying to upset anybody, so nobody should take any of the following personal. 1. Some coaches do not have time to be involved in rankings. They need to focus on their wrestlers and their programs. 2. Just because somebody is a coach doesn't mean they know much or anything that is goin...

I do have a question for the officials. It is sort-of related to all the noise about last nights East Fairmont match, but I am asking because it raised a curiosity, not to preclude any judgment. Is there a template or rubric to guide what is unsportsmanlike conduct and what is flagrant misconduct? ...

I am sure I will get someone angry at me over this (not the first time, not the last), but neither Doc nor score reporters are to blame here. On Jan 8th Doc posted the initial thread about rankings with a list of wrestlers asking for input. In the 24 days since then there have been a total of 8 coac...

I dont remeber all of the winners, but here is most of them 106 Boyers 113 Casucio 120 Ellison 126 Rea 132 Irizarry 160 Whitney 170 Williams 220 Summers I think the Williamstown wrestler won 145 but I am not positive and dont remeber his name. are you sure Irizary wasnt at 126 and Rea at 32? Yup. Y...

I dont remeber all of the winners, but here is most of them

106 Boyers
113 Casucio
120 Ellison
126 Rea
132 Irizarry
160 Whitney
170 Williams
220 Summers

I think the Williamstown wrestler won 145 but I am not positive and dont remeber his name.

Fayetteville has wins against both Liberty Ral and Liberty Har but lost to Clay. Not sure how that plays in to the standings. On day 1 LibH beat Clay 51-30, so that should give them the nod above Clay. Common opponent prob decided LibR and Clay and it looks like the Fayetteville match-up decides th...

so, what were the final team standings? I could have miscounted, but I think these are accurate. No idea of tie-breaks for the teams that tied, so I just listed them in random order, not how they finished. Also no scores were submitted for Grafton vs. Lincoln, so they show one less win/loss in thei...

I refrained from sharing everything. No low blows yet. Obviously the head to head wasn't made clear in the seeding information submitted. That raises another question then. What if two wrestlers have wrestled three times? One wins 2 matches and the other only wins 1. Who wins the head to head? I fi...

i dont know if there is a hidden message in your post from a past tournament or incident....but, i totally agree with the words you say in this post. No hidden words at all. Just hoping my message makes sense. Coach Williams-----I'm with you 100%!!! https://memegenerator.net/img/images/600x600/1168...

A referees job is not to enforce his idea of what a dress code is. Focus on being a referee. Worry more about my wrestler being illegally slammed, awarding points to the correct wrestler and calling a pin when there is one. There is no rule in the WVSSAC or NFHS handbooks about coach dress code and ...

Don't forget Shayden Daugherty from Keyser. He pinned Jenkins from Moorefield, has a 11-2 win over Lawson and I think has a win over Kotsko as well.

I am pretty sure the individual results are not documented by event organizers, so it falls to individual coaches to submit those results.

Probably because it is the National Guard DUALS...

I have changed my thinking on this a bit and have no issue with JV wrestlers being in regionals or states. My only stipulation would be that there is no separating them in the brackets from the varsity wrestler. If a team is going to enter a JV wrestler in the tournament then all scoring wrestlers s...

Congratulations. Not keeping up on AA- A wrestling has he won multiple state titles?? 200 wins is pretty impressive! Looks like he qualified in 2015, his two losses were to the eventual 3rd and 4th place finishers. Qualified in 2016, his two losses were to the eventual 1st and 6th place finishers. ...

Congrats on a grand accomplishment!! Not only is this accomplishment due to scheduling, but no doubt it took hard work, determination and staying healthy for 4 years. Again, big congrats!!!

I just wanted to give a little credit to Nicholas County Head Coach Danny Crislip and Richwood Coach Cody Boone. I know Coach Crislip was going non-stop the whole weekend to make the National Guard Duals stay on course and I know Coach Boone was instrumental in getting mats brought in and helping ma...

It is at the Summersville National Guard Armory. No idea if scores will be posted.

Pretty sure Sammy Pullens from Fayetteville is at 152, not 160 Kris Wilson from Fayetteville is listed at 182, he is 170. Also his win over Meador from Braxton is Seth Meador, not Quin Meador. Quin Meador from Braxton listed at 182 is actually Seth Meador, Quin's brother. I don't see Colton Hovermal...

Special rules for wrestling. No superintendent in this entire state would even remotely consider canceling a football game or refusing to allow their team to participate in a football game because of school closure.

I am sure there are quite a few reasons. Here are just a few: 1. Many wrestlers are smaller in size. Football might not be a wise choice. 2. Some wrestlers stay busy competing in off season tournaments. There are no off season football games for teams to go compete in. To add to that... Many wrestl...

Our local newspaper does a fantastic job of reporting when we have the Big 16. The entire front page of the sports section is a full color spread with photos of each weight class on the podium and the names of the wrestlers and their finishing spot. What I would really like to see is TV stations co...

That was the jest of my post on the tournaments this weekend on another thread. I listed the teams coming to the South Classic in hoping that others would do the same for the other tournaments. Upon further review, I am going to the Cameron Tournament where the action will be. Based on what I have ...

My eyes are not perfect, so I may have overlooked it, but I don't even see any scores posted for them. Should a team be ranked if there isn't even scores posted? Williamstown has scores in the JCI tournament. The first rankings are usually way off. I think this one is wayyyyyy off. Yup. I totally o...
