Feed won’t load. This is crazy. I tried to app and my laptop. Anyone know how to fix this???

I saw yesterday that Sam Hillegas, 4X Pa state placer and 2X PA state Champ and former Virginia Tech wrestler is transferring to WVU. This is a great signing for the Mountaineers.

Moving winter sports to spring sounds good in theory, but it will adversely effect many multi sport athletes who will have to chose. During your senior season having to chose really isn't the best case scenario.

Sadly, they aren't the most flexible bunch.

This would be a good time for the WVSSAC to reconsider the week off between Regionals and state so these kids can get the most out of a shortened season, if they are lucky enough to have one.

So no change so far. Dolan mentioned in an earlier article that season could be slightly delayed.

Will start date be delayed or stay the same?

As much as I would like to agree with you, I cannot imagine a scenario that allows any large tournament to occur this year.

99 schools really isn't that many, considering there are district tournaments in Ohio where nearly that many teams are represented. If having a 1 class state tournament is out of the question for the SSAC, then split the schools is half with approximately 45 schools in each division.

My memory isn't what it used to be but to the best of me knowledge the results were: 106 Velas (WP) Fall Angelossi 113 Taggart (WP) win by FF 120 Shelek (WP) Fall Cargil 126 Stocket Fall Lucas(WP) 132 Parker Fall Nolte (WP) 138 University win by FF (not sure who took the FF) 145 Mitchell (WP)MD Paul...

Did they video the finals to put on YouTube as they have done in the past?

Beaver local didn’t switch their 152 and 160. Potts has been the back up 145 all year after losing to Salsberry, the current 145. Based on the rankings and the moves they made at the Park dual, they are inserting Potts as a returning OVAC runner up at 152 and bumping Lasure and Krupnik to 160 and 17...

I think this is a great idea, but you may want to consider making it every 10 years. 31-49 is a BIG difference. lol

I think its a 3 team race. However, I think Beaver may have a larger advantage by the time the tournament roles around than your data would suggest. They have a returning OVAC runner-up that is not in the line up. I personally look for them to find a way to fit him into their line up in an effort to...

WP1992 I think it is the failed Six Sigma crap that is being used. Not that it is important but just to let you know it is worthless in companies as it is on here because it is too complicated to use. This coming from a MBB in the crappy method. Greco, As a Six Sigma Green belt, I understand your p...

Conclusion: Bearhugger has too much time on his hands and is a high level statistician!

Speaking of facts, Per NCAA Division 1 recruiting guidelines for senior wrestlers, off campus contact is allowed, no more than 3 times.

Wheeling Park has kids from teams, groups, etc do little videos for 2 hour delays and cancellations. It’s fun for the kids and I thought the boys made a pretty funny video. It’s a shame that the same people on this forum continue to disrespect student athletes and coaches while hiding behind a scree...

Just out of curiosity why do you pick those 4 weights as opposed to others?

I am honestly not familiar with the rule you are referring too, nor am I saying you are wrong. I just know that no Park coaches were ejected.

Also, flagrant misconduct would indicate a wrestler was disqualified from the match and ejected. This also did not happen. It’s amazing the things people represent as fact when they are not. Unsportsmanlike conduct is 1 match point, which did happen. I am not going to dispute or discuss the infracti...

No Wheeling Park coaches were ejected. What exactly was said that indicated they had a coach ejected???

First one was 1990 so 29 years ago. Now I’m watching my son compete in it. Pretty cool feeling, but man I am getting old!

By my count there are 28 wrestlers in AAA with losing records that are competing in the state tournament. That is 12.5%!!! AA has 5 wrestlers with losing records or about 2.2% I know teams wrestle varying levels of competition but 12.5 percent is staggering in my opinion. I credit the lessor number ...

Who is the Northern Panhandle/OVAC contact and when do classes for next year begin?

Actually, in 2016 and 2018 Sierra Powell of Hampshire qualified at 113 and 120, respectively. To my knowledge the only female to place at the WV State Tournament was Erica Dye of Wirt. I think she was a 2 time placer and a state finalist her senior year in A/AA. Its to bad she isn't in high school n...

Brackets posted anywhere for this event?

I think you may be missing Jordan Wood possibly 160 and Anthony Carman, possibly 170

This is not a dual tournament. It is bracketed.

Depending on the region, less teams does not necessarily mean greater opportunity, IMO.

So you believe that the Winfield wrestler would have been more aggressive down 2 points with 10 seconds left than being down 1 point????? The problem with this situation is that it was not a judgment call, it was a blatant mistake that a entire group of people, including the Winfield coaches, could ...
