Re: Odd Year Championship
Thanks to everyone that has already sent in forms. Thursday the 9th is the deadline. We will not be taking walk ins. All forms must be mailed. Also do not forget that we change clocks Saturday night.

Re: JR. States Podium Photos
My son has attended Jr. States the last 3 years and I have always been able to get a picture with my phone while he was on the podium. And I was never told that I couldn't. I was there... The situation was touch and go. I personally witnessed those operating the photo business say you had to buy a ...

Parents shouldn't have to buy a picture package just to get a good spot to take their own photo of their own son.

I'd like to know why there is so much butt hurt over this. It was posted, date and time. If you didn't want to attend, couldn't for whatever reason etc... then that's no one's fault but yours. Can't please everyone all the time. Get over it and move on. It's really starting to look embarrassing for ...

Yeah, I'd be interested to see what East and West Fairmont have this year, along with a couple other programs, but I see none of their scores/results.

Re: MS in WVYWA tourney 2016-2017
i'll update what i have heard since i made this post. my understanding is that the middle school division has been removed from the WVYWA tournament in Huntington and has its own separate tournament that will be on Feb 19 in Summersville. I also heard that there is no regional tournament or qualify...

coach passes other state tournament info?
If we are coaching an independent wrestler, do we need a coach pass for the state tournament to be down on the floor and where do we get them? Also, where can I find other info on states? The WVYWA page brings up a Clarksburg tournament entry form when clicked on. Thanks.

Region 6 has already been wrestled with innaccurate points and didn't appear anyone worried about it. Just show up and if you're one of the best 4 it will show. Then if it doesn't matter to you and you're not worried about it, why comment on this thread at all? I think I already know the answer to ...

It matters because it helps a wrestlers seeding in the regional tournament.

Re: WVYWA Regionals
I can see issues from both sides here. I do like a few things about the new system. Kids should have to qualify for states instead of just having to sign up, pay and go. That doesn't teach them that they have to earn their way in the future should they continue to wrestle through high school. I also...

Re: Regional seeding/coach meeting?
This is Coach Vankirk of Mountaineer Wrestling Club, Track Wrestling will take care of most of it. Points will be added to the selection of the picks. So the seeding will be based off of their record for the year, head to head, and the tournaments they placed in and won. Will the Grafton tournament...

Re: WVSSAC
I believe for any sport, a coach should be allowed to have some off season contact and/or workouts which are voluntary for the athletes who want to participate. Some kids only play one or two sports... If for no other reason, it gives the kids a place to go, something to do, promotes exercise and ke...

What are we supposed to do if a wrestler's points are not correct on the new web site? I have emailed several times that there are missing points. However, it hasn't been fixed all season. I was told there is a technical issue on the site, but I see that they have added other things recently. The re...

I hope that it doesn't get that bad, trooper. But you answered your own question. Yes you would be ticketed if traveling during a state of emergency. That being said, most teams travel to WSAZ on Thursday. All teams should arrive before the snow starts. Every time we travelled to WSAZ's there was s...

Re: WSAZ and weather
Guess my next question would be after the news I just heard... If the governor declares a state of emergency, does the tournament have to shut down? I'm going to be ticked if we have to drive all the way there, waste money on rooms and we can't wrestle. Anyone have an answer for that scenario?

Re: results
Results and points earned for the Preston MC Tournament still haven't been posted on the wvywa site. It's been well over five days. So how are we going to know if they have kids seeded right when they can't even post the points and results correctly?
