Yes. The word on the street is:

2. Braxton has two from Nicholas.
3. I think Roane has one from Calhoun.

Re: AA/A ranked wrestlers per region
It's been easy for a school like Indy or Point (mainly Point) to dominate at states because they send their full line up every year compared to whomever is the best school in region 1. Region 4 is Point and that's it, literally no one else at all. Ouch. I guess i will chime in. But before anyone sa...

They've never been balanced, if Point Pleasant or Independence were in Region 1 the last 10 years, I'd love to know how many wrestlers they would've brought to Huntington year in and year out.

Re: Region 1 A/AA
I attended AA/A Region 1 on Saturday. 1. I was probably the only person in attendance that was not affiliated with any of the participating schools. 2. The level of competition surpassed any event I attended this past season. The only exception might be the WSAZ but it is very close. More to come.
