ZZ i can't imagine that is true. Probably someone starting rumors when this all began. I'm pretty sure most people no better than to believe this.

when is the seeding meeting?

Not speaking of you james. Speaking of those which arranged things they could wrestle in both. Just like the government the leaders always seem to have things go their way.

And this was one of your leaders that was able to do both. I guess he knew what was Best for his wrestler.

Kind of strange to me one of the big people involved was able to wrestle in jr state tournament today and didn't have their regional tournament today.

I want to make sure I understand the rules of the forum correctly. There is to be no negative comments about a ref. We can't say a wrestler didn't make weight or it gets removed. However we are allowed to blast one individual kid for doing something several others did. Noah wore a wv shirt at the wv...

Can someone post the criteria that is used. I still don't understand why it is left up to sportswriters who only cover local events and have no clue what the rest of the state is doing. Sure they can research results but as we all know that doesnt always tell the entire story about the competition l...

Why is this award up to the sportswriters anyway? Maybe back in the day they had access to results the rest of us didn't but that is no longer the case. When is the last time you saw a sportswriter at a wrestling event when they weren't working and we're only there because they like the sport. I wou...

I will agree with you on some of the things you said. Wrestlers make mistakes coaches make mistakes and there isn't anything they can do about it. When a ref makes a mistake in most cases they could correct it but choose not to because they don't want to admit they were wrong. Some matches are easy ...

I thought people went to watch wrestling I guess they go to eat.

Yeah $170 a night at holiday Inn is a deal.

As far as I know wvssac has rules in place for a football field to qualify for a playoff. Why can't they make it a rule that you can see the mats at a wrestling tournament.

Bottom line it is unacceptable to not be able to see the mats from the stands.Don't think wvssac cares about it. As long as they get their money they don't care. Remember when they had the wrong awards a few years ago that they never fixed.

I hear they are starting about 138.

Does anybody else find it frustrating that you can't see part of the mats? Absolutely ridiculous to travel across the state and not be a to see the entire mat unless you are sitting g on the front row. Wvssac needs to take this into consideration next time the tournament comes open for bids. I reall...

Are they drawing a weight class to start the finals this year? If so does anybody know what weight they are starting at ?

well then it sounds like the AD put the wvssac rule book beside his awards ordering form and forgot both of them

didn't think you could do a 50/50 at sectional, regional or state tournaments. Last i knew wvssac wouldn't allow it or signs and other things that would give hosting school and advantage.

i know you can't help the weather but a scheduling mistake like this had to come from someone who doesnt have to move the mats over and over

All I said was <snip> (BANNED: baiting, flames. Taking cheap shots at a team for choosing the Jr. OVC over WSAZ.)

Hope all teams can still make it <snip>

Wv north. I am not saying ovc is inferior at all. I am saying most middle school kids who live in wv would rather wrestle in the wsaz simply because it shows where they rank as far as wv middle school wrestlers. Most every wrestler I was around looked more forward to wsaz than their own county or co...

You ask pretty much any wv middle school wrestler what tournament they want to win and most if not all will tell you the wsaz. I think every team and school should do all they can to attend for their kids. This is why I was shocked blennerhasset went to ovc instead of wsaz. I bet if asked the kids w...

So you are telling me you have never heard it referred to as middle school states? I didn't say it was I said it was referred to as. It is simply the largest collection of middle school teams throughout wv and as close to a state tournament as there is at this point. I take it your school can't atte...

I was not suggesting that blennerhasset dodged anyone. I just don't understand why a team in wv wouldn't attend the wsaz. This is commonly referred to as the middle school state tournament. Can't imagine the kids would rather go to a different tournament. If blennerhasset goes to wsaz there could ha...

Does ovac allow jv or 6th graders ?

Can't believe blennerhasset went to this instead of wsaz.

how many wrestling fans does it take to change a light bulb? None they just sit back and talk about how good the old one was.

Why

Great example coach. I think it would be neat to see how many teams middle school and high school both could bring something from their team (shirt hat ect) to the wsaz this weekend to show him support from throughout the state. Not much time but lets see what we can do.
