I predict that after the state tournament is over, and quite a few AAA teams get shoved down lower in the team race by 1 to 2 points, the grumblings of this seasons Pill draw will grow. The arguments for seeding the state tournament will grow.

"The Cream Will Rise To The Top" "Let The Chips Fall Where They May" etc etc
But How About A Year Like 1977
1. Wheeling Park 136.5
2. John Marshall 134
3. Parkersburg South 133.5
4. Parkersburg 133
Anyone know how it was done back then? Was the pill in use way back then?

Tell us how it was done back in 1977. On a side note, I left WV in 1991 for employment reasons. Things have only gotten worse. Why? Lack of action.

Saw this a few days back but was too busy too respond (not sure what I was too busy doing actually).
It was just a 16 man bracket and with only 12 weight classes in 1977.
The total scores for the top 4 teams added together over the last several years was about 200 points higher than back in 1977, so the margin of victory has become much greater. I had recently posted something regarding the average margin of victory over the past 20 years and the fact that a wrestler finishing in 3rd place instead of 2nd place had almost no chance on determining the overall team champion in response to someone's concerns regarding this.

I predict that the final outcome will not be all that close. The final scores will be NOTHING like 1977 and as per usual the vast majority of “grumbling” will be from only a handful of people.
BTW, Park is clearly n the drivers seat.
