Pennsylvania: There is easily 100 guys you can add to your ALERTS list but for my money I have a particular interest in the State Champion and Runner-up from last year, Luke Simcox & Maddox Shaw (138) and both ranked in the Top 10 in country. Puerto Rico: Yes, you read that correctly, I said Pu...

te="armyscot0873"] And NO I am not endorsing another weight class in between 197 and HWT, I personally like the 10 weight classes just as they are. You wouldn't necessarily need to go to 11 weight classes to put one between 197 and 285. It could look something like this: 125, 133, 141 149...

I don’t have a dog in this hunt, but I do have a comment on the final official bracket. I haven’t coached in a state finals match for over a dozen years, but I still follow the sport closely. Being disqualified in a state finals match is a harsh penalty and those involved will unfortunately have to...

Contact, in the manner you are alluding to, with an official is most certainly flagrant misconduct. In some states it is a high level misdemeanor or felony. Most states considered sports officials in the same light as school employees under the law when it comes to aggravating circumstances for assa...

The point of the tournament is to crown a champion. by definition,the best wrestler will win out independent of seeding.

There is no such thing as an injury forfiet. If wrestler A is injured during the match with Wrestler D, Wrestler D wins by injury default and records that as a win in a win-loss record. In this case, Wrestler A records a loss as well. If Wrestler A never steps on the mat, for whatever reason, it is ...

I ran the AAA brackets through some tournament software and I've attached the results. I might do it for AA/A if I get some time this week. Unless something crazy with bonus points happens, South will run away with it with Wheeling Park in 2nd and Parkersburg in distant 3rd. There is a tight groupi...

Confirm the whole point is to finish first. So why do seed matter? Best wrestler wins regardless of the path. If you are arguing over who is second or third best , we have missed the point of the tournament in the first place

I’ve been an official off and on for 10 seasons and I have mixed emotions regarding video replay. Fundamental y I want to make sure we get the call right. But, I simply don’t think it’s all that practical at the high school level. First, you would need a separate replay official to be an objective a...

Based on some of the grumblings regarding regional, I put together a proposal to realign to 8 regions statewide, regardless of class. I tried to balance the regions geographically, but WV is not exactly the most symmetric state. In this proposal, the top 4 from each region would move on to states. T...
