Right now Porter is the best AAA heavyweight wrestler in the state, only an idiot would argue otherwise. The kid has to get bigger for D1 college football in a few months. Wrestling appears to be his hobby in the football off season. No need to cut a single pound. Not sure if he is "sacred"...

Ran from Amos ? Wouldnt it of been easier for Amos to MOVE UP than for a heavyweight to MOVE DOWN ? And he appeared to have no problems winning a state title at heavyweight . Two dominant matches , win by pin . And his south coach looked good wearing Spring Valley colors .

Now this is going to seem like a joke to some , esp. after my other comment, but this is not a joke or trying to stir. Why does someone not take the WVSSAC to court ? I have long felt and posted that the WVSSAC is worthless and care nothing about the kids in any sport in our state. The argument bout...

Now , now Rick. Appears that as a lawyer you are spinning that story in a shady light . Coaches move wrestlers around all the time to benefit their team. So Coach Schenerlein was a genius in doing what he did. It got his team a state title . And the South coach DID NOT win coach of the year . Now di...

Mason, you of all people SHOULD know what the NCAA rules are, he has not been offered a thing to go to WVU. So stop acting as if he was signed or even recruited at this point. And I guess the rest of you are saying the athletes in the state are not smart or good enough to go to WVU. I disagree. RUDY...

6 on last year roster. But being on roster and being a signed recruit are 2 diff things.

Dylan and Jake were on their way back on their own, from what I understand. I looked at the state champ seniors this year, and would say most could wrestle D1 level , may not go to NCAA but neither did most of WVU team. As far as the grades, cmon man !! Would think "the bull" might of gone...

Not a single kid from WV !! Looks like the same thing previous coach did . Where is the outrage for the "bull" ? Unless your telling me that not a single kid from WV is good enough to wrestle for WVU ? In fact , I dont think he recruited a single WV kid to his program since he has been the...

Congrats again Noah on winning the NHSCA Junior Division 195 lbs class ! I believe this is your 2nd championship at NHSCA ? Just another feather in your cap . You represent WV well ! Glad we have one more year (at least) to see you wrestle .

Congrats to Noah Adams for winning the NHSCA Junior Division , 195 lb class in dominant fashion with a strong finish ! Way to represent WV !

Congrats Luke !!

Would LOVE to read/see some of the articles written about this years honoree from across the state. Hope Doc posts the links soon. Would think the sports " writers" that vote , would have written bout him in their " news" papers !

Great job guys !!!

Correct Gator ! It was all supposed to be about this years NCAA qualifiers ! Yet somehow South wrestlers managed to be brought into it ! On the front page no less . I wonder if you were the one who provided Doc with the info. The fact that you don't see anything wrong does not surprise me !! You guy...

Jared went 5-3 on the road to AA , Dylan won 4 and Jake won 1. 10 wins from ONLY 3 wrestlers. This makes this group the BEST outing we EVER had as the 08 team (best I can find) only won 4 matches total between the 4 of them. Will let Brent or Bearhugger correct me if I am wrong ! :mrgreen: :mrgreen:...

Congrats Jared !!! Great job ! Only wish this web page did not belittle your accomplishment , along with the accomplishment of the other qualifiers , by adding the names of the other qualifiers from years ago ( from a certain school ). I've said it before , and I say it again , just let one thread e...

Congratulations Luke. It has been a pleasure watching you wrestle over the years. A honor well deserved. Congratulations to Cam Moore (runner up) and Noah Adams (third) as well. An argument can be made for either of them winning it as well. To the graduating seniors, good luck in all your future end...

"WV Jr States" has been run by the Wood County Rec as far as I know since the beginning. It has been open to all WV kids , and again as far as I know they kept ALL the money ($$$$). Other teams got tired of paying for Wood County Rec fund raiser. Or are you saying it was a non-profit propo...

This will increase participation in the other regions ? Kids will come out to battle for the 5-6 spots, since 1-4 will go to the Region 4 kids ?

Raise the competition, instead of lowering the bar !!! I would rather have less good/great wrestling , than have to watch some of the flailing about that I witnessed Thursday. We already have kids with 10-27 records at states (just an example) but eight wins were by forfeits. Not all kids are cut ou...

Had the kid not gassed , Allman would not have had his first or second (can not remember which) championship either. Kid was embarrassing him up to that point. Did watch the Adams / Allman match. From my seat , Allman was stuck ! Giving Adams only 3 was a early Xmas for the South fans. Allman is a g...

How can you loose to a in state kid , same age and grade as you , and be brought up by people for the award ??!!! Allman is NOT a contender , this year nor next after Adams beats him again ! The only reason Adams is not a 3 x champ is a slam call .

" Thats not how this works, its now how any of it works " Team polls : Doc recommends the team rankings (after a lot of research) and then coaches Agree or give their opinions Individual polls : Doc ranks the wrestlers based on research (past results, head to head, common opponents etc.) C...

"one mission" ? Would you rather be a individual champion on a last place team , or a non-placer on a championship team ?? Obviously a individual champion on a championship team , but only 1, 2 or 3 kids a year get to be that. Guarantee these kids are thinking about themselves 1st right no...

Well played BH , well played .

It's called a rhetorical question ! Appears he is doing fact checking enough for both of you. And it appears it is hard enough , that you were not able to do it
