Re: Podcast

A weekly podcast, with guest, via phone or in person, discussing WV Wrestling as it's happening, talking match up, going over duals or tournaments, talking to coaches, answering fan submitted questions or covering fan submitted topics. I'm not going to use the word " better " , just a more...

Re: Eligible for weight classes

Is the 50% weigh-in rule actually enforced? Now that regional brackets are being posted, there sure does seem to be some suspicious changes in weight class. Seems like wrestlers are checking the talent in their region and then jumping to "weaker" brackets. Does this stuff actually get che...

Re: LKC Dual Championship

Some of the best wrestling witnessed at the LKC dual championship this year. However, I feel the teams who participated tonight are at a disadvantage for tomorrow. There were very few easy matches. Many walked away with bumps, bruises and ice. Williamstown and Braxton County did not even wrestle th...

Re: 'A' Team Polls

32 AAA Teams vs 67 AA/A Teams and you think it's harder for AAA kids to place at the State Tournament? Look at region 1 in AA/A and the # of ranked kids in that region.....you will have ranked kids, good, ranked kids, probably not make it out of the region..... you have select AA/A Schools that woul...

'A' Team Polls

Good thing these are coaches polls and can't be taken seriously because "WOW". Single A Challenge gives you all you need for Single A. When teams are ranked high out of nowhere, drop out of tournaments, and don't finish ahead of the defending Single A Champions that have been on top all ye...

Re: Ravenswood vs Ripley

It was a very under performed night for Ravenswood. There was some good matches, I feel the hammers for Ravenswood didn't perform well and some of the others as well. Honestly, they looked different than they have thus far, very different. Hopefully they bounce back, they have the State Duals qualif...

Re: Early 2023-24 Schedules

Ripley will put Point on their schedule but from what I hear won't respond back to Ravenswood?

Ravenswood lost by 3 last year and Ripley was their only Dual loss.

Re: Single A Challenge

Yes. Greenbrier WEST. My correction thank you.

And to add, they had almost a full B team it seemed like, so while B team was not scoring points, they were taking points away!

Single A Challenge

1st Greenbrier East 2nd Tyler Consolidated 3rd Ravenswood. After this weekends tournament it's clear Greenbrier East is the #1 Team in "A". Ravenswood put on a great showing, outing Wahama and Williamstown. I think they make a strong argument for the #2 spot. If you haven't watched them, t...
