Your stage name sure doesn't fit your remark, No life isn't fair nor is this state wrestling system. Not everyone should get a trophy, but you should look at what can be done to improve the fairness of the sport for the student athlete not just this year but for years down the road. I will continue to say there should be two regions and the top 8 placers in each region make it to the states. Not that everyone gets a trophy but this allows the best chance for the ones that deserve the trophy based on talent to get to the big dance. Cannot see why this would not work!

I think you are both right. I agree that there should be two regions, based on geography.....North and South. That eliminates any questions of how some group came up with the regional alignment as it is.... Whatever the determination or criteria it was not geography. Wayne, Kanawha, Cabell, and Putnam County are a lot closer to each other than they are to Wood County. I agree with trying to make it as fair as possible for the BEST 16 wrestlers in each weight class to end up at the State Tournament. I also agree that life isn't fair; and the fact that one of the kids didn't get a shot at the state tournament is not going to determine the outcome of their life long term. The lessons that the sport teaches with discipline, respect, toughness, determination, dedication, etc...... will serve them better in the long run, and that is what the sport is all about.
