Brent, please do not take this the wrong way, but these reports are somewhat in error. Back in the 80s, the region that contained Huntington, Milton, Barboursville, Hurricane and many of the Kanawha County teams was Region 3, not Region 4.
In the 80s, Region 4 included Ripley, Woodrow Wilson, Dupont, Hoover, George Washington, Mount View, Logan, Nicholas County.
Holy smokes. Braxton Amos works out with a landmine now!!!!!!
Re: Triple-A Regional History
Bearhugger,
I know they are not historical accurate but they are geographically accurate as I stated in the note:
"Region numbers have changed back and forth over the years and I am not sure how regions were numbered from 1963 to 1975 when they grew from 4 regions to 8 regions. So I took the current regions and kept the general geography as:
Region 1 - Northwest (North and South from 1963 to 1975)
Region 2 - Northeast (East and West from 1963 to 1975)
Region 3 - Southeast (North and South from 1963 to 1975)
Region 4 - Southwest (East and West from 1963 to 1975)"
There is still a lot of research to do. In the 70s, Region 1 also contained Ripley and Point Pleasant.

Re: Triple-A Regional History
Brent, In your four time regional champions It says AAA. Wasn’t Haught AA his freshman year ? I believe Bauer may have been AA two years ?

That's right, Kyle Bauer's first two were with Wheeling Central until they stopped their program. Dirk Bauer also had a title with Wheeling Central before switching to Park. Of course, oftentimes those AA/A Regional titles could be more difficult than the AAA. With regional changes, school classification changes, and wrestler school changes it's impossible to fit everything under a neat label. Still, it's a very interesting compilation to read through. Thanks for taking the time to pull it all together and the "long" walk down memory lane.
Re: Triple-A Regional History
Yes, that is correct on Haught and Bauer. They may not have been a 4x AAA Regional Champion, but they are a 4x Regional WV Champion, so I credit them with the last Region they participated in. Something similar with Justin Allman. He was a 3x Region 1 Champ and a 1x Region 4 champion. Since his last year was in Region 4, I credit him as a 4x Champ in Region 4.

Re: Triple-A Regional History
Nice job Brent. I do a lot of research too and the thing is this, there is no right or wrong when it comes to organizing your information. It's also great to share it when you're looking for help. Somebody has what you're looking for. Good luck on completing it!
Re: Triple-A Regional History
I went down to Highlander Country on Saturday and Coach Bill Archer got me up to date with Huntington's Regional Team Champions for the last 50 years. I will repost regional history sometime next week. I am currently working on Jr. States and need to replace a hot water heater that went bad on me last night, as well as work a full time job. Thanks for all the input. - Brent
