Re: NC State 34 WVU 6
"Match" would save this argument,,, but I guess Dual or Duel does signify that 2 teams were present

Re: States Format after next year?
I think the 4 divisions in basketball was aimed at limiting the number of private schools winning championships. It accomplished that goal in that there were no private school championship teams and only 1 in the finals. Wrestling does not face that problem.

Re: States Format after next year?
terrible idea wv wrestling is watered down enough! Still 2 tournaments with the same number of wrestlers. Only differences are that the A/AA would become much weaker and you give out an extra team trophy. The AAAA/AAA tournament would be much tougher. Can you imagine if that was used this year havi...

Re: AAA P4P rankings
Pound for pound is so tough to rank because they can't actually wrestle each other. So you can only go by how much they dominated their class. Was there anyone close to them in their class? Going on only what I saw at the state tourney I would think Gage would be at the top of that list. I also thin...

Re: Dutton Award
In the definition it says "the best wrestler in the state each year" so why would the 3 previous years be considered? With that said though I would be shocked if GQ doesn't win the award. If it were based on just this year though I would think a case could be made for the Spring Mills kid ...

The only form of possible seeding we had available before the tourney were the final set of rankings published here on WVmat.

Re: Finals Matchups
In my opinion the argument for seeding would be more valid in consideration of the team point situation. I know that in 1977 the top 4 teams were separated by only 3 1/2 points and as of right now this years class A point spread is only 1 1/2 points among the top 3 teams

Too bad Point and South couldn't have wrestled to determine an all class duals champion,,, now that would have been fun but I guess they will wrestle in a couple days anyway. That should be an awesome match up

Re: Wv state duals
They are on the scores page but I have a question,, it shows SM scoring 24 against South but I only see 18, two falls and two decisions so was it 18 or 24 with a 6 point score missing from the individual results?

Re: News from the legislature
I hadn't thought of that,, might be added motivation for a kid to take the offer. He could be on a very short list of 5 timers,, maybe the only one,,, ever,,, because I doubt a pandemic will happen anytime soon.

If you don't want to the story it says that a bill is moving through the legislature to give kids the chance to repeat this grade and gain another year of athletic participation. Thoughts? https://wvmetronews.com/2021/03/18/house-committee-approves-bill-to-allow-for-extra-year-of-school-sports/

On today's map only 4 counties remain orange with three of those nearing the gold level. Only the smallest population county Wirt remains in the red danger zone. Things are definitely looking up.
