is competitive balance used in factoring the 3 class system? I had it in my head it was only in the 4 class and 3 class was enrollment only. That’s a good question boxer. Not 100% sure on that. But for argument sake the enrollment score would still be representative of the enrollment for each schoo...

If they keep the cut for AAA at 800, then just Point would move to AAA and Ripley to AA. If they move the cut line to 775/750 then Hoover, Nitro, Point, Fairmont, Winfield, and Shady all move to AAA. Year Dist District Schl School Type "Total Headcount" 2024 004 Berkeley 501 Hedgesville H...

New topic. Other than changes in classification/region (this includes 1 state tournament, or the qualification process) WHat changes could be made to make High School wrestling better or even better than that, what will make the sport better in WV. HS wrestling in general. I know College out of bou...

Not looking for controversy, but want to point out a fact about your last comment and I believe there are several instances where a 5th place finisher in Region 1 has been on the podium at the State Tournament over the years. I am sure someone in another Region also has placed 5th in their respecti...

I am confused by all this. Everyone should be rejoicing that Region 1 is so good. The conversation should be centered around on how to make Regions 2,3,&4 better. Bringing the bottom up toward the top is far better than pushing the top back down toward the bottom. Altering the qualification pro...

We’d love to have you on, Adam! Sorry you feel that way, but we can chit chat about it any time. I’ll send (EDIT: PM sent) some contact info! As always, thanks for listening!

It was the snow storm that sent all the schools home early and piled up on roads from 3-10 that evening.

They seeded this morning and results should be posted with the rest. Wrestling ended around 4:30. You can watch finals on NFHSnetwork

Match of the Year.

Match of the Year part 1!

Looking forward to seeing these two battle!

From everything I have been told, it is base +3. So, 106 the base weight is now 109. So you only have to make 109. I have yet to hear whether or not it'll be an extra pound on day two. Basically they took the New Year +2, added an extra 1 to it, and made it base for this season.

I have been reading all the discussion about Region 1 being so dominant this season, a region very hard to qualify their wrestlers for the state tournament. As a matter of fact, out of the top 8 ranked wrestlers from the latest poll, Region 1 has 40 ranked. The nearest region for top 8 ranked wrest...

Has anyone simply called to see the best way to handle the situation? Seems a lot easier than all of this speculation.

Thanks for link! Love that site. One of easiest to navigate aside from the ones with live results!

Had to scratch. Unfortunate for the young man. Had a very good season going. Wish him all the best!

I’d say the weight program Coach Darst (WV wrestling HoF) has done pretty well. Go lookup Point football on fourseasonsfootball.com since Coach Darst got there AND STARTED A WEIGHT PROGRAM. You may edit the post with proper research. But to your point, yea. Point wrestling is good. Hard work, dedic...

One problem comparing some years to others is that in the early years there wasn't even a 32 man bracket filled, so with one less round of wrestling this limits advancement points and bonus points that can be scored by a team. I did not check all years but this years point total was not a record. I...

You and I both know that many on here hide behind monikers and if you are going by an email address, they make those up too. There are some that get on here and say they are South fans and stir also. Only takes a few rotten tomatoes to ruin the whole batch! Perhaps it is YOU using a burner account....

Which rankings? WIN, Intermat, Flo, all?

Where were you yesterday Jimbo? I looked for you. This tourney was in your backyard. You missed some good wrestling if you missed this one. I congratulated coach Bonecutter yesterday on his teams win. Some of you posters could take a little lesson from your coach and show some class! I already did ...

A few WSAZ thoughts ... I used to like the “Follow the Leader” bracket we used for some years at WSAZ - if the guy you lost to in your first match won his next one, you were still in. This helped the poor guy who drew a top seed his first match. No one likes to travel several hours, draw a stud and...

Someone broke down the nationally ranked (FLO, intermat, Track ranking) wrestlers attending Brooke. How many will attend WSAZ? I know St. Joe pulling out of the competition took a few off the list. I believe their 170 is #1 in the country. May be wrong, haven't looked lately. The word on the street...

After a cursory glance at the seeds and competitors entered it would appear that Point Pleasant is an overwhelming favorite to win. They have 12 of their 14 wrestlers projected to place in the top 8, with 4 as 1st and 4 as 2nd. This would give them 131 placement points. Coming in second would be So...

That sounds great. I hope you stay interested in high school wrestling. It's a great sport to follow. The WSAZ is on the 25th in Huntington and I think there's a link or info on the front page giving the information. Probably better be checking into hotel reservations real soon. They tend to fill u...

Cooler heads will prevail.

I say we 1) not downplay South’s talent 2) not down play the significance of the win for Point 3) not blow the win out of proportion 4) chill out.

If those four things happen, I feel like we can have a very successful thread here.

1/7/17

PHS 37 PSHS 35

Point wins 32-27. Both teams played the dual game.

I'd be shocked if the board of education didn't have the salary posted, as it is public information. So, since you can google my salary as a public servant I'd allow discussion.
