I think Sullivan beats Schwartz.

Frazier already there and in shape, slightly above 265 lol.

El Chupacabra!!!

Well that’s a whole lot of red tape and I’m for sure not the guy to try and navigate thru it but this is an annual tournament that hosts a different state all stars each year. Anyway, good luck Braxton Amos!! At least you get to represent!!

No ball dropped here. Have to be invited. Think they are still feeling sting from last time. :D I really thought we’d see Team WV there this year. This class deserves it. Very disappointing!!! I totally agree 1. You need to get invited. 2. You need to come up with sponsorship. I think it is around ...

WVNORTH What do you think the WV lineup would look like? Anyone know when they release the names of the wrestlers who are participating? It would be interesting to compare our lineup against the WPIAL and other teams. I don’t wanna give a lineup, Bearhugger is better for that. I’m just saying that ...

It was mine and my sons distinct pleasure to finally meet you Saturday sir. This arrangement was made through the all seeing, all knowing Bearhugger. We have met many great people in this sport. Thank you for taking the time to introduce yourself it was great to finally meet the man Mr Gator!! Since...

Liam beat four very good kids and wrestlers to win. Most of those matches could have went the other way. This was just Liam's weekend and he deserved it.
I'm very proud of my boy.
Thanks again

Great job Liam, I was told he looked phenomenal. Congratulations!!

Congratulations, that is a great accomplishment!!

Hall wrestled Whorton last time and lost 8 to 2. First time wrestling Laya according to results. Unless we are talking further back in history. Yea they did wrestle as kids. Funny someone remembers. They wrestled in Clarksburg at the Armory for the old Wv Championships. Peyton was thrown in the mix...

In reference to the 2x state champion that did in fact lose. The loss occurred to a bad call in overtime. Not saying the wrestler isn't good because he certainly is but it was very apparent that said champion was not at 100% at all. An said 2x champion was/is sick. You can bet when the two meet aga...

Doesn't count, not an official wrestling topic intended to solicit discussion. Lol

what is the reason EF isn't going to Beckely? To see what WVNORTH is doing? The wvnorth that we represent will be at Cameron but another wvnorth team wrestled at Beckely today n wondered where EF was. EF made our tourney better but made Beckely a little less challenging. I think you got a great tea...

When I was a young Navy man we could change 2 F-14 Tomcat engines, test and return to service in a 12 hr day. Changing a rule requires discussion, agreement and signatures. That's basically move your mouth, nod your head then wiggle your hand. Maybe a bad analogy but it boils down to people willing ...

Just wanted to say this was a great event. The venue was great for the spectators to watch all the mats and to easily follow your team. Tournament was very well ran and appreciated the updating of the results on the website after each round. My son had 9 matches at 152 and had 4 or 5 high level mat...

The rules and liabilities are the key factors. I just don't see how a kid getting hurt in a season game or match differs from a June practice. If it benefitted the right people it would already be happening. My point was simple. The kids that can't participate in clubs or national tourneys could rea...

So one of the problems that can arise from having a JV kid be allowed to enter regionals (though unlikely), is what if you have a kid at 126 that is favored to win states. The kid behind him, the JV guy, barely loses to him. The kid the team has at 132 is new, and is not winning many matches, the J...

This kinda goes w the forfeit thread and AAA solution thread. There are typically 3 types of wrestlers pretty much everywhere. 1) The kids who train and compete all year. 2) The kids who play several sports and stay active, maybe hit some opens through summer. 3) Kids that sign up in November and tu...

What other teams were there at EL? Beaver Local just had their Hoppel Tournament this weekend. If you were coming north looking for good Ohio competition that would be a good event to attend. Beaver Local is only 10 minutes away from East Liverpool.

I'd like to add a few facts, comments and predictions if I may after reading that 5 part novel of a thread. 1) Nowhere in the thread regarding 132aa/a was the name Alec Cook mentioned. He is an absolute stud who simply had a bad weekend at states last year. He can compete w #1 and has beat #2 last ...

When I was in school wrestling, long ago, after shaking our opponents hand and then his coaches hand we then returned to our side of the mat and grabbed 2 big oranges and delivered one to our opponent. Does that still happen anywhere?

Brayden is a great young man and great wrestler. John it's our pleasure getting to know and wrestle with you guys. You definitely give your son great opportunities and he makes the best of them. I am very excited to see where his talents take him. Best of luck this summer and beyond!!!!

Not sure what you mean.

Uh, because it wasn't available to all. Just like I wrote.

I'm glad them boys get to do both. Burns me to no end it wasn't available to all.
