J.W.,
Great job crunching the numbers. Looks like the seeds were pretty efficient.

Cool stats. Congrats to the South Harrison guys who placed and were not seeded.

What time does wrestling begin at Midland?
Thanks

Final Placement Round Matches and results are attached. Gator, Sam had my vote but I couldn't vote for everyone else. Best of luck to Samantha Miller this season, tough wrestler. I would like to send a very special thank you to Jenny from South Wrestling. Her handwriting is much prettier than mine a...

Coaches, Please see the flyer on the main page or attached and consider coming to Hurricane High December 7, 2019. We run 16 teams on 6 mats in 1 day for 5 matches. This year we are pulling the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th place individual finishers from the team duals to wrestle in a bracket for 1st-16th pla...

Really good news!
Congratulations to their program and athletes.

This topic reminded me of a conversation from years ago. I was coaching football and the discussion concerned a senior and concussions. One coach stated, he didn't know how he could live with himself if he denied his son the chance to play football. Another much older and wiser coach responded. He s...

My name is Lee Cummings.
Please look no further and do not waste more energy deciding who to blame. I am to blame.
It is my lack of effort, organization, and consideration that all individual results are not posted.

I attempted to attach a PDF file of results but it says it's too large. I attached a word document of results and emailed Doc Miller results.

Thanks to everyone who helped out and attended the tournament. Good luck with your season.

More results will follow tomorrow.

I'd like to echo what John Beech said. Coach Perry was always kind to me and I loved to hear his stories.
Sending thoughts and Prayers to the Perry Family,
Lee

Nice article from Flo Wrestling, discussing recruitment of in state talent for new D1 coaches.

https://www.flowrestling.org/articles/6 ... t-in-state

Nice to see positive words for in state talent in WV.

Amen Gator!!
A Very Refreshing post.

170 Quarterfinals-
Cameron Pine, Washington vs. Kaleb Simpkins Wheeling Park

I am astonished that wrestling in West Virginia ever made it this far without bearhugger. (sarcasm)

Wrestling is individual as well as a team sport.
Good luck to everyone who's still working hard in the practice room: coaches, wrestlers, non qualifiers, and jv's.

A big round of applause for Doc Miller! We all enjoy the history, updates, and banter on his website.

Good job to all the coaches or stat personnel that helped compile this year's rankings.

It's nice to have people like Jenny around.

Good luck at regional this weekend.

I'm sorry, but how in the world is having an unofficial A tournament a bad thing for the sport of wrestling in the state of WV? We struggle EVERY year to promote our sport and get kids hands raised. You can say all you want about "watering down, blah, blah blah," but unless you are in the...

It was pretty cool when they announced Logan Grass’ accomplishment his senior year at WSAZ. 7 titles!

Jake Smith was 3 for 3 in ms I believe. He won 2 titles in hs during freshman and senior year.

Quite an accomplishment for all these guys listed in the conversation.

I had a guy last month (now fired) ask me if I wanted a pc of trim cut 45 7/16 thick or thin? Thick or thin? but thats another story. :lol: :lol: Lots of good comments here. 2015 Regional Tournament weekend was hit with snow. Our bus had been ordered for months and I received a call from my AD the ...

The Coaches at South Charleston are great guys. They work outside of school and dedicate a lot of time (just like any coach) so they can have a team. No scores posted. No updated schedule posted. I figure 95% of the student body doesn't even know they have a team. Until you have spent significant ti...

That makes no sense. Both tournaments have been around for many years. Both tournaments help raise money for the hosting program. Another thought, why don't you pay and rent the armory, pay officials, and pay for awards on a weekend without conflicting schedules? You could setup, find volunteers, an...
