Nice job making a mockery of a civil rights leader that was murdered. You do this because you couldn't make the variety team when you were in high school. I have read this. The variety team is hard to get on. They have a variety of good wrestlers. It is tough to get on the variety team! There are a...

Out of the 29 AAA high schools, Only 7 have a full line up. Of those 7 schools, 5 are currently ranked in the top 10. Here is an overview of the current top 10 AAA schools, their population size, number of forfeits and their region. 1. South. Parkersburg South is ranked first. The school ranks 5th ...

.than ran to me lifting me in the air and saying the words I will never forget...WE DID IT DAD...WE DID IT! Long journey...well worth it...12 years of work.... for 6 minutes of glory ...but a lifetime of memories. That teared me up. Every dad would love be to hear it. Definitely worth it. Definitel...

Oh yes! I've watched him over the last couple years. Watched him at Virginia Beach this year, right after he crushed it at Flo Nationals. Great kid!!

In my experience, two people that are of equal skill and talent go head to head....the physically stronger kid wins. Period.

I agree with the lifting weights off season. I run a program during the summer for kids, usually have about 25-30 kids. For the kids under 13-14, it's body weight oriented, sand bags, tire drags, etc. The older kids do the old school tire flips, sled drags, rope climbs, box jumps, etc... Plus we lif...

So there will be at least 2 open slots in this weight class for the State Tournament. So the 5th place finisher from regions 1 and 4 fill in, and now you have a full bracket. I have read the State Tournament thread, and what I find sickening is all these excuses and maybe's, and what if's that are t...

Proud of you Chase!!! Well deserved, and congratulations

Congratulations!!!

Barboursville Middle School is looking for a head coach, in Cabell County, I believe.

Congratulations!!

Amos just won 195/Cadet at the Central Regional Tournament this weekend in Kalamazoo MI. Lots of tough kids up there, he represented very well. Impressive!!!

Outstanding!!! Congratulations to all of them.

I have also competed in several BJJ tournaments in the no gi division, where board shorts and rash guards are being worn. The issue of fingers or toes being caught is a non factor. The shorts have no pockets, for that reason, and they are relatively close fitting, and the material they are made of i...

I agree!!! I took my son there to compete, it was his first experience at the tournament. It was a great experience. He got a chance to see it all come together and make sense. Great chance to see where he really is vs. the best in the country. He went 1-2, but got the experience needed to take the ...

I thought something must have been up with Wood for the 4th place finish in Regionals. I have seen him wrestle a few times this year, and he is a strong kid. I am sticking by my belief that this weight class is up for grabs. I think we are going to see some names that are not being considered as hav...

Hurricane finished 4th in the tournament

106- Talbott 3rd
145- Gibson 3rd
152- Johnson 1st
160- Long 1st
170- Dech 2nd
182- Gorrell 3rd and Chance 4th
195- Lunsford 3rd
220- Saunders 2nd

not sure about McCormick at 106. He was a placer last year, and was a favorite to start the year. He has only wrestled like 12 matches all year, hasn't wrestled since before Jan 7th. With the competition so close in the class, that could be an issue for him. I guess that's why they wrestle the match...

I don't think that Byrd at 106 is a huge dark horse pick. I saw him at MSAC, and he looked solid. He handled Haskins with ease in the finals. Physically strong for the weight class and moves well. Region IV 106 will be interesting. Smith, Holt, Bowen, and Talbott all in the Top 10. 106 is a good cla...

The reason numbers are down is due to the sport being too hard for today's kids. Mommy and Daddy cannot buy your way to the podium, it actually takes hard work and dedication to be good. The politics of the sport don't mean squat in a wrestle off, so even the poorest kid had the same shot at glory t...

Barber (Oak Hill) 106

Congratulations to Dana Dech on his 100th win last night!

Is McCormick, 106 CM, staying there or bumping to 113. He has a slew of scores at 113. Same question of Martin from South. Is he staying 113, or bumping to 120. I saw him at Wheeling against Stuebenville at 120.
