Will we get to wrestle next season?
I hope so, but a resurgence, most likely would occur in the winter. I'm really hating that prospect.

Re: Baddest Babe Award
Any of you two have a daughter? While the gesture is nice, calling a female wrestler a babe is a sign of ignorance. These ladies work hard for the recognition and are blazing a trail to bring the fastest growing high school sport to the forefront in WV high school athletics. Joke, make fun, laugh.....

Re: AA-A regional alignment
How do we accurately determine toughness of a region? Lets review some facts: 1. Oak Glen won AA/A region 1 over Fairmont Senior. Oak Glen also beat Fairmont Senior in the Cameron Tournament. 2. Oak Glen walked in with 14 wrestlers, only 5 were ranked in the top 10 on the February 5 Coaches' indivi...

Re: Last Man Standing aka Last Chance Qualifier
Some good points made here on both sides of the issue. I think before we entertain the idea of a LCQ tournament, we fix the regional alignments. I believe that issue would take care of a lot of problems. I both like and dislike the idea of a LCQ... in some ways it reminds me of the "everyone ge...

Re: AA-A regional alignment
The WVSSAC needs to figure this out. The Northern teams (particularly in Region 1) are at a ginormus disadvantage compared to teams like Point PL and Independence when it comes to taking a full team to the state tournament year in and year out. Region 1 is LOADED every year and no wonder, when you ...

Re: Conference Tournaments
I know a lot of wrestlers did not compete in their conference tournaments due the flu and/or injuries This weekend. After all, next weekend is when it’s going to count most. Why risk an existing injury, becoming more sick if you have the flu, or infecting everyone else? How about we leave the confer...

Re: Rankings
Like this as well... however, we need to somehow make them more accurate. In a few areas, there are kids ranked in the wrong weight class that have been in their new weight class for a few weeks now. I know it’s hard to keep track sometimes though.

Re: Countdown to the Brooke Classic
The funny thing is... Zach doesn't care that he's not ranked. I believe he gets snubbed because he doesn't go to all these other tournaments, but that's because his focus is on football. Let that sink in a little bit... he focuses on football and is still this good at wrestling. Zach is a great kid ...

Re: SUPER MATCH POSSIBILITY!! OG vs WP vs PHS
Many schools of thought. Opinions vary as to what is BEST for the team. I shall try to stay as factual as I can. 1. Two seasons ago, Hall went to Ironman ALONE. He placed 7th. This placement more than likely PAVED the way for Creese and Moore to JOIN Hall at Ironman the following season. No Hall to...

Re: SUPER MATCH POSSIBILITY!! OG vs WP vs PHS
I agree the above hypothetical matches would be great to watch for fans of wrestling. However, fans of wrestling often get caught up in what they would like to see instead of what is good for a particular wrestler and/or his/her team. Though an individual wrestler steps onto the mat by him/herself, ...

Fairmont is a tough place for student athletes. If one wants to play football, FSHS appears to be the place to be.

No wrestler transferred to fairmont senior this year. Two wrestlers were in 8th grade at east middle and chose to go to fshs. Everyone is offered that opportunity. So no transfer.
