My best guess is Childers didn’t lose head to head to Bush at B10, and has beat someone this year who Bush lost to, so they had no head to head and each had a common opponent win over each other? Neither placed at states (at least not last year). Childers top seed based on season win/loss record? I...

If you think rankings, seedings, past performance and a successful season doesn't matter, then I suggest you stop reading this post now, hop on your unicorn, gallop out to California and use non-offensive language to miraculously unload the cargo ships we never hear about anymore. Otherwise, keep r...

Once again, if your feelings are going to get hurt, then please switch to another discussion topic. AA/A 106 is another cool discussion topic how rankings vs regions vs the pill line up. 1. AA/A 106 is the ONLY weight class where last season's Champion, runner up and third place winner are all BACK...

I hope all wrestlers are and stay healthy.

Byes are coming! Did you see this past weekend tournaments?

The debate of conference tournaments continues

What’s the debate? They are what they are these days.

Now on to regionals! Maybe wrestlers and wrestling teams will start to appear again?!

RIP my friend, Gator!

Sorry their win hurt your feelings! There were several from Unv that chose to not go out and wrestle finals round,but wrestled the round before,hmm that’s odd! Regardless, it shall be interesting come March! Congrats South on winning the DUALS Why would individual wrestlers for University not wrest...

Regarding the 2022 WSAZ: 1. WV had only 5 WSAZ Champions while the out of state schools had 9. 2. We saw a 3x HS WSAZ / 3 x WV State Champion finish 4th. 3. The 182lb weight class contained two returning WV state champions that finished 2nd and 4th. 4. The 3rd place matches at both 138 and 145 are ...

All of the wrestlers I have talked to say WSAZ is harder to win.

:D Agree! 182 and 145 provided some great matchups with added excitement in the stands! It truly creates fan interest which is critical for any sport. It also reminds me, again, of why I would love to see All-Class Individual Titles at States. Not trying to start a debate that can easily be triggere...

Quarterfinals watch list Johnson vs High Goode vs Arthur . Andrick vs St Clair Smith vs Harris Hess vs Holt Ramirez vs Walls Arnold vs Price Felix vs. Stewart Osborne vs Bennett Woyan vs Ayers Holstion vs Kelly Edge vs Misner Giompalo vs Taylor Britton vs Edwards Mullins vs Worstell Turney vs McCan...

182 is highly overrated and that is what Gage will show this upcoming weekend. I'm not sure anyone has "overrated" any of these wrestlers. I have seen all of these guys and I believe the point is that they are all quality wrestlers and all very close to each other, which makes it a more c...

AAA 182 at the state tournament is going to be crazy. Given results, 1-6 could win the tournament completely or even face not placing giving the quality of 7-8. And those are just the guys everyone really knows about. This will certainly be a fun and competitive one. The upper weights will be expos...

182 is highly overrated and that is what Gage will show this upcoming weekend.

Congratulations to Nitros Braxton Smith who is now
100-12 in his high school career!

I think the point here is that this rule change is not going to be used in every weight class, every single time. This is a rule of obviousness to a degree. If there are 3-4 guys who have beaten each other or are relatively close this rule is not coming into effect. Its for years and weights where ...

Congratulations!

Senior, Junior, etc.

Many of them are the same or relatively close age regardless of graduating class…

Congratulations Josh! Great Accomplishment!

The Waco Center at Glenville State College is centrally located in the state and may be a good place to host this event in the future. Maybe not this year, but maybe in the future?

There are 19 teams at the time of my last update. I will look for the list. Happy New Year!

George Kenney touched many lives in youth athletics! What a Journey! RIP Mack!

Congratulations!

I have coached a wrestler along with others over a 10 year period of time and he has never been pinned. His mindset won’t allow it but some may call him lucky. Who cares, results and facts are what they are. I presume that wrestler and the others have wrestled a significant number of matches outsid...

Interesting observation… Are each teams individual strengths in different weight classes? I assume 182 match was most competitive?

Sometimes, even a good wrestler can get stuck but it’s not common.

Which Saturday or Sunday were you referring to?
