Is this really the best we can do for tracking the state tournament? The system is horrible. So many options and this is what we get? The entire website was unreachable last night and the AA-A bracket is still only half updated this morning. WV continues to do things the hard way. Go to the What's ...

It may seem like the rankings matter, and maybe they do to an extent, but to say that is the rankings are the only factor or even the biggest determining factor is not a true statement. Strength of schedule, and RPI, play a big part as well. I never stated that rankings were the biggest or only fac...

In so many days before the regional tournaments, I laid out a different approach to the state tournament qualification process. A quick reminder is as follows: 1 Take the top 3 from each region, no questions asked. The top 3 from each region would be referred to as “The 12 Regional Qualifiers” for t...

Keyser won region 1 and qualified 57.14% of a team. Braxton County won region 2 and qualified 57.14% of a team. Independence won region 3 and qualified 100% of a team. Point Pleasant won region 4 and qualified 85.71% of a team. NOTE: One wrestler qualified out of 14 weight classes = 7.14% Region Sch...

Each wrestling region had 28 finalists. Region 1 had 11 schools with a finalist. Region 2 had 14 schools with a finalist. Region 3 had 6 schools with a finalist. Region 4 had 7 schools with a finalist. Regions 1 and 2 has its top wrestlers spread across more different schools. Regions 3 and 4 have m...

Each conference has a different number of allocations for every weight class. The BIG 10 has the most allocations with a total number of 87, the BIG 12 has the second most with 61, and the SoCon has the fewest with 13. Each weight class is looked at and evaluated individually to see how competitive...

The allocations are out for the BIG 12 conference tournament. Let's get some thoughts on the regular season and the upcoming post season. 125: Jett has had a good year and with 7 qualifying spots he should be safely in for the NCAA tournament. 133: Tommy Maddox will probably need a little help to q...

Wrestlers need to be tough. Wrestlers also need to be smart. Some regions do not require the same level of toughness. The outdated state qualification process we use now is dumb.

I used the word "prediction" because you are saying the rankings, based on prior results, are predictive of what would likely happen in the future in head to head meetings and thus you are assigning the moniker of "deserving" based on what the rankings "predict" would ...

Historically after the regional tournaments are over, Bear Tracks has never released any rankings. WVMat releases new rankings that reflect the state tournament qualifiers that fall into their top 10. For the first time in the history of wrestling, Bear Tracks will release a special set of rankings ...

There are four regions in each class. There are fourteen weight classes. The regions will determine 56 state tournament qualifiers (4 X 14 = 56) for each state tournament. As of this writing, nobody knows who those 56 state tournament qualifiers will be. On the other hand, I have compiled rankings r...
