Re: Open to hear about odds on whos going to win at WSAZ's in each weight

In all seriousness. These top seeded kids are all top notch wrestlers. There's just a few that are elite. my man you can't be elite until your standing on top of the podium at the Olympic Games or NCAA division 1 championships. I guarantee you when Brands recruited Spencer Lee, he never one time as...

Anyone know what happened to Short at 84? He has an injury keeping him out. Not getting into the "lol" crap none of these fellas deserve to be laughed at. Work way too hard for that stuff. All I know is that the two boys from poca are just like the other top kids, they work their butts of...

Re: Middle School Championship

The new youth state tournament in Huntington has a middle school age division. The trophy you earn will clearly say West Virginia middle school state champion or 3rd or 6th, wherever that particular wrestler places. I'm thinking you guys are leaning more towards a team and individual (official) stat...

Re: Any shake ups predicted in the polls after this weekend ?

It's gonna be East Fairmonts two 106 pounders in the finals. If both of them are given the opportunity to go to the WSAZ, then I hope it happens. Never happen even if they both go they will probably be put in same side of bracket so they won't see each other in final, if I was guessing The tourname...

Re: JV Trivia - Week Ending January 14th

Bearhugger, Has the rule of one wrestler per team, per weight at the state tournament always been this way? If so, I'm pretty sure we're all fighting a losing battle. Also, do any states allow two wrestlers per weight class in the state tournament?

Periscope

If any of you guys or gals on the forum use periscope, let us know how to find you. For those who don't know about periscope, Periscope is similar to Facebook live And you can post live action for all to see. It's really good to scope for friends and family who can't make it out to the event.

Re: Attempted Abduction At Wrestling Tournament

This is West Virginia fellas. We're a small state but were strong. I would expect a man to be beaten half to death before the cops could save him if this ever occurred. It's a shame and very scary. That poor 8 year old kid will remember that for the rest of his life. Nightmares and possible ptsd. Us...

Indy will be the favorite. Reg 1 will keep several of the East wrestlers at a low seed and some maybe even out that earned points against Indy.

In reference to the 2x state champion that did in fact lose. The loss occurred to a bad call in overtime.
