AAA Fearless Forecast
Same song as A/AA Forecast, not meant to hurt feelings. I know less about AAA than I do AA. Looked at pairings and pulled up scores here and there. 106 Jace Stockett Univ vs Michael Dolan Spring Mills In an effort to show that Coach Regalbuto’s wrestlers do indeed get respect I am picking Dolan as t...

Re: State Tournament Wrestling Pill
The pill operates on the “assumption” that for the most part all regions are equally talented. We all know this is not true. Always keep in mind that the powers that be make decisions based on that assumption and try to level a playing field that is not even close to level. Once people can accept t...

Good thing he wrestles A/AA and this year isn’t last year then huh? Depends. You would have to ask him. Some would rather face the best and see where they stand while others are content to go undefeated. 99% of the time it is not the wrestler's choice as the coaches or school make the schedules. My...

Thank you for covering the sport. If you miss a name or mess up a score and come back and say "sorry I missed one" 99% of the people on here will quickly forgive and still be thankful for your attempt to give the sport attention.

Agree it is about mutual respect. Saying call the fall/stall/all has opened the floodgates. Rule book is going to look like a poetry collection by year's end.

Re: Undefeated Before States
I'll throw out Amos, because it's a no brainer, and he has the easiest route, but out of the remaining wrestlers listed I would go with Frazier. I think he's the best Heavyweight in the state. I feel like Wharton will have the toughest time winning it all. Off topic and my disclaimer that I lean to...

Re: 4 Byes in AAA
Based on the regional results, the AAA state tournament will have 4 byes this season. Region 2 at 113. Region 3 at 106, 220 and 285. Lets just leave this all as is. Blame it on a declining population, leading to a decrease in the number of AAA schools in the state. At this point, arguments against ...

Amen! I share your disappointment with the bickering and tone of some of the coaches and officials snipping with each other and with fans on here.

Re: Rea Defeats Teasedale
The kid takes on a killer schedule and doesn't change weights to run from anyone but does change weights to get better competition in an exhibition. Sounds to me like a kid we should be bragging about not tearing down. The kid his coaches and parents are to be applauded.
