comments: In response to Northern Panhandle Fan's comments on any other team having all weight
classes but 1 at State's and dominating like South did in 1995...check out results to 1988
State Tournament. PHS dominated with 7 state champions 1 runner-up 2 thirds 1 5th and 1
6th (only 13 weight classes then). Team results were as follows: PHS 261 Oak Glen 125.5 (AAA
then) John Marshall 109 Wheeling Park 104 and South 72.5. So to answer your question of
"has anyone known of such domination"....yes I have I was there!

From: The Editor
WV-Mat Legal Department
From time to time, fans will cut-and-paste an article from an on-line newspaper and submit same to the forum. You may have
noticed that I never (well, seldom) post such, and here is why:
Before I started this enterprise, I wrote to editors of several newspapers to inquire about taking match results from newspapers and publishing them on this website. I was worried about copyright infringement and such. Here is
what I learned. Facts cannot be copyrighted, but the written account or description of the facts are copyrighted.
Information such as scores and match results can be lifted from newspapers with impunity, because no newspaper can lay claim
to "rights" to such info. However, the written description of these events is the property of the newspaper.
So, I thank those who cut-and-paste such accounts and submit them to the forum; but, I hope you understand why I choose
not to make wholesale use of such accounts.

First I would like to say I enjoy your web very much. Read it every day.
Second: Last week a wrestler from Roane Co. was knocked out by a slam. The
wrestler that did the slamming was disqualified for that match only, but went
on to wrestle the rest of his matches. The Roane wrestler cannot wrestle for
the rest of this week, due to the injury. Maybe, just maybe next week he can
return. So who receives the punishment. The wrestler that did the slamming
was not punished, he was losing the match, so what punishment was this. I
think the rules committee should think a bit about this ruling.
Thank you for your time.

good as shot as any at a state championship with the only teams in your way trying i stress
TRYING to prevent you from winning is Fairmont Senior and Hedgesville. two very good teams.
and stop comparing matches: well this kid beat this kid whom beat this kid who lost to thsi

comments: Every year at this time the forum seems to be flooded by complaints
about the number of teams in Region 1. This year is no different and
now the complainers have expanded there whining to say that Parkersburg
South is not deserving of the respect they receive.
As far as South receiving too much respect I
feel that they have earned it. People have complained that we are living
in the past but that is where respect is earned. In 1995 Parkersburg South
had a wrestler in every weight class except for 275 I know this
because I stood with there whole team on the mat on Saturday night
during the pre-finals introductions. Does anyone know of anyone else
ever accomplishing this feat.

Regional Tournament at PPHS - WV Mat
All of our wrestling is done in tournaments. We didn't schedule a dual tri or a quad.
We think our schedule is one of the tougher schedules in the area. During our season we see the
top AA at The JCI Tourn. At the Winners Chioce we see All Region 2 and alot of Region 1. The
WSAZ
Tourn. allows us to see Region 4 and Region 3. After the WSAZ tourn. we see Lakewood St. Ed.
and all
of the top southern Ohio teams at the New Lexington Oh tourn. This tournament along with the
Athens
tournament allows us to see ALL of the teams in our SEOAL Conference. Hope this clears up any
confusion.

credit at least they are trying.

From: South wrestling fan
comments: I love to read the forum. It does seem however that the adults who write in are very
competitive and try to match this wrestler against this one and this team against that one. We
may be missing the most important factor about high school wrestling and that being that it
builds character and leadership. We sometimes as adults forget that these young kids are just
that young kids and I for one have never seen a loser from any school in a young person who has
the dedication to become a wrestler.I enjoy a great match between two good wrestlers or teams
and applaud every young person who leaves their best effort on the mat.Maybe as adults it is
time we give all kids from all schools the credit they so deserve because in my mind they are
all winners!

comments: To Hedgesville wrestler: What I am saying is we would beat you head to head because
we are very solid 103-275. You guys have some great wrestlers to compare Stein to Regalbuto
is unfair to compare Regalbuto to anyone is hard. I have been watching local high school
wrestling for 12 years and Regalbuto is the best I have seen since Kolat. You guys are in the
top 3 AAA in WV no doubt in my mind. When you compare the BEST in MD to the BEST in WV I feel
they are similiar I am not saying AA in MD is better than AAA in WV. Our top 4 AA schools and
top 4 AAA schools would match up well or even with the same in WV.
Best of luck to your team. I will be reading this forum to see how you are doing. There is a
new forum go.to.allmarylandwrestling.com that you might like.

comments: I was just looking at the coaches polls for AAA and i was wondering how Mark Evans

hedgesville he gave Wenmoth a heck of a match losing by 2 and Stanley got beat by 5. By the way

comments: To: Hedgesville Fan
I am getting a little tired of hearing how much easier it is to win out of Region 1 and how
much harder it is to win the state when Region 2 has 12 teams. Do you realize that Region 2 has
4 teams that have sccored a total of 65.5 points in the State Tournament during the past 5
years? All of Region 1 teams have at leat 50 points. So I think that Region 2 really has 8
teams and Region 1 has 7. By the way the top 5 in total points in the Last 5 years:
1. Parkersburg South - 1066
2. Fairmont Senior - 600
3. Parkersburg - 499.5
4. North Marion - 478
5. John Marshall - 476
16. Hedgesville - 181.5

comments: Most of what is posted here on this great forum
is our school is better than your school. Well here we go. The Hotbed of
wrestling in the state of WV is most certainly is the AA LKC.
There is no tougher conference in any division in the state.
On a percentage basis the LKC produces more state champions
than any division AAA or AA. The LKC has been producing year in and year out
for a very long time. This is another reason to say it is the best conference
because of longevity. If we went a little further (and included some other teams-dont worry
about divisions) you would have
to say the toughest part of the state to wrestle in is not the panhadles
it is not the south it is not the north but in the western part of WV.
The list goes like this. The parkersburg schools St. Marys Ravenswood Ritchie Williamstown
Wirt
Ripley Pt pleasant Calhoun Braxton Roane... There is no place in the state with more talent as
close together as this.
But AAA aside the LKC for sure is an awesome tournament with some fierce competition.-THE BEST
IN THE STATE

I know that McGuffey has a great team and they have some kids ranked national. HOW MANY KIDS DO
YOU HAVE RANKED NATIONAL. HEDGESVILLE HAS ONE and will have one next year. And at
all of the major tournaments you have been to how many champions did you have. It's no big
deal that you go there it's if you can do well in those big tournaments. It is not the
Hedgesvilles wrestlers fault not being able to wrestle South in a dual match. Most of
Hedgesvilles wrestlers they go all over the country seeking tuff competion and win alot of
those tournaments.

comments: to Northern Garrett Fan. You are right abuout us beating Martinsburg 44-31 but did
you go into past forums from November to December we beat Martinsburg 55-13. I know this for a
fact because I wrestle for Hedgesville. You guys have a great team and probably the best team
in Maryland A or AAA. But if you are trying to compare and say that A Maryland is just as tuff
as AAA West Virginia better check into the subject alittle more. Here is one example
Regalbuto AAA state champ Stein A state champ the final score was 22-5 Regalbuto in the
second period that about sums that case up. But you still have a great team and good luck the
rest of the year.

others don't even post that much....I would love to see some individual results from

publisity the better afor all...If coaches are trying to hide something I would think all the
good coaches have ways of finding out and scouting other teams...Just seems to be hurting the
fans..Maybe some of the coaches ought to take the lead from some of the great teams around the
state...South Hedgesville Fairmont Huntington Cabell Midland Nitro all seem to get most if
not all match scores posted and it doesn't seem to be hurting thier programs...

comments: To "forum-observer" take a chill pill buddy and turn down the caps. I didn't bring
up the stuff about Northern Garrett somebody else did. Here is the age old argument. Does
double the student body mean double the potential talent. This may hold true for "team" sports
such as Football Baseball Basketball etc. Does anyone think that applies to wrestling which
is more an individual sport than anything. Maybe maybe not what are your thoughts. Never
denied that Northern Garrett had a good team never denied that they were a smaller school
just said that I believe head to head at this point in the year Hedgesville would take them
regardless of matches and scores with other teams. Just an opinion nothing derogatory
intended.
****Next hey Parkersburg South as far as Hedgesville versus you in a dual meet
just show up at Wheeling Park next year and that'll solve everything.

they need to score some points and/or an upset or two. Williamstown

From: A South Fan
comments: To the Hedgesville Fan:
To acknowledge such a ridiculous comment as Region 2 being tougher than Region 1 that is just
stupid. When it's all over see how many Region 1 champs there are compared to Region 2.
Everyone wants to complain about Region 1 only having 7 teams but who wants to volunteer to
come over? The powerhouse Oak Glen went to AA-A from Region 1 and so did Weir and we picked
up Morgantown and University. We could grab Ripley Point Pleasant and Roane County since they
are the closest or does someone else want to volunteer? Hedgesville? Fairmont? Cabel Midland?
I didn't think so. No matter where you would put PHS or South they would probably take more
wrestlers than they do now.
I'm glad that your wrestling team has come a long way but wrestling the same schools every week doesn't prove anything. Next year maybe you can ask your coach to go to the Iron Man Tournament at Walsh Jesuit and face the top ten teams in the nation or the Brecksville Tournament in Ohio or go to Reno Nevada and face the top 20 or 30 teams in the nation. Then tell me Region 2 is tougher than Region 1.
By the way South will be wrestling at Fairmont Sr on February 9th too bad Hedgesville probably has all their weigh-ins or they could come over to wrestle with us. Oh that's right Hedgesville didn't want to wrestle South or we would have seen you in a dual earlier this year.
And to criticize the South fans? I think you need to look at your own before making any judgement calls.

comments: To the "Wrestling Expert"
I wrestled in WV but lived in PA during college and for several years afterwards. PA is known
for having great teams as well as individuals. 4 of the top 20 nationally ranked TEAMS are
from PA right now. As for State Champion Jeff Breese of McGuffy PA being the starter at 112
but not wrestling against South. He injured his knee during soccer season and has been out all
year (He attempted to wrestle in their opening match this year but had to default. He then had
knee surgery and hasn't wrestled all season). In fact he is helping announce wrestling
matches for a radio station.
As for McGuffy LAST YEAR they were one of the best teams in the country. This year they are
only the 3rd or 4th best team in the WPIAL (similar to a WV regional).
Although I'm no expert I don't claim to be one.

comments: Good Luck to the Braxton County High School Wrestling Team at
the LKC tournament this week-end. These guys have worked very
hard to achieve many of their goals this year and I expect this
week-end to be no different. Look for another Braxton Eagles
win in Williamstown this week-end. Good Luck Guys!!

comments: I havn't really seen anybody bad mouthing south wrestlers on the forum but as a team
they are very good exellent. but I have watched them wrestle and I dont think that there is
one kid on the team that can compete at a Divion 1 level. I may be wrong but that is my
opinion. Where as Hedgesville may have 3-4 kids compete at a Divion 1 level. Regalbuto Lord
Moats Bowers Ballam. I also know that you did a great job against Mcguffey and they are a
great wrestling team but PA is not known for good teams just great wrestlers. I also know that
MCguffey did not have there starting 112 JEFF BREESE he won states last year and beat Stevens
convincingly. That makes it 7 MCguffey ad 6 South.

comments: To the Northern Garrett Fan. We beat Martinsburg 55-13 forfeiting 103. They only
won 2 matches. Thats pretty impressive. Northern Garrett wrestled West Fairmont and lost by
10 points and we beat West Fairmont by 5. So that means West Fairmont beat the man and we beat
West Fairmont so that makes us the MAIN MAN.!!!!!!!!!!!!! GO EAGLES. But you did beat us at
the Berkeley Springs tournament. BUTTTT Moats did not wrestle that makes the difference.
