Girl weight certification date

[Girl weight certification date]

Any word on what the regions are and where they are being held? 

[Girls Wrestling]

Not anymore. 

[Girl weight certification date]

Here is my question.  If I have a dual with another team should I use both tracks to weigh in? 

It seems kind of silly for teams to use both boys and girls track when maybe there is one girls match at the dual. 

[Girl weight certification date]

I assume that this certification must be under the girls Track?  If they are only under the Boys track will that qualify them?

Where’s Chase Stacy from Martin County. He pinned Robert Workman in the 2nd period 

Maybe because

1. That match is not in Track

2. He is 4-7

[Duals]

I completely understand the idea of fan support and cheering on your team.  It also helps to motivate those kids that usually don't get the fanfare.  I tell them if not for all the kids there we would not have won the dual. 

I just remember when I was in school and we actually had a dual the last hour of the school day. The entire school came down to watch the dual.  I was a little guy and remember all the fans there.  However I did not enjoy it.  During the match it made no difference to me because I blocked it all out, but when on the bench I felt my teammates could not here me over the noise. It was annoying to me just sitting there waiting for a dual to end, knowing that regardless of the outcome it made no difference in my goals for State.  Especially if you received a forfeit that dual. 

But these are just my personal opinions, I know they are not popular. 

[Duals]

I guess you have to change with the times.  I'm still old school, I like the idea that wrestling is an individual sports. Never liked the dual as a wrestler and not a fan as a coach.  Winning duals to me is ho hum.  I much prefer seeing the individual tournament where the best two in the weight class battle it out in the finals. I don't want to see coaches moving kids around trying to win a dual.   But that is just me and I know the push is to make it a team sport, and the fanfair involved is what kids and parents want now.

Please no, then I will get confused on who to harass  

[Battle for the Bone results]

I want to thank all that attended for the patience.  We had about a 30-45 minute delay when Trackwrestling went down. 

The great team I had was able to transfer all results to manual brackets in record time.   Special Thanks to Jason Hale who was running the tournament, Coach Jeremy Young for quickly getting bout sheets printed and copied, and Coach Andy Price for helping write out boutsheets to get the tournament back running.  I also want to thank Coach Allen Dillon and Rachel Blackwood for keeping things calm when everything hit the fan. 

We were still able to get wrestling complete and awards given by about 6:30. All in all a great day of wrestling. 

Thank you all

Again, not saying we shouldn't have 285 to give girls an opportunity as long as there is a need.  I just find it a bit ironic how we've had plenty of feedback about how we need to get rid of 106 because it is just a middle school weight class when 1) virtually every other state has it and manages to hold a solid post season bracket with it 2) we actually have enough kids to fill the post season brackets 3) the olympics/college lightest weight for full grown adults is less than 20% higher than 106.  But we forced the NFHS to create a weight class that is 70% higher than the full grown female weight for the olympics and almost 50% above the college heavyweight.

I'm just glad we have weights and can move ahead.  I'm good with it.  We can re-evaluate next year or the year after when we have some real data on participation.

I think what you are missing here is that your two examples are higher level Athletes. I stress ATHLETES. This is high school our main objective is to get kids in extra-curricular activities, to enhance their high school experience, and have another adult watching their academics.  For many kids this will be the first sport they have ever participated in.  I'm good with whatever we do, we are not going to bring the house down regardless if these 2 girls wrestle for me or not.  You know me, I'm just here to get whatever kids I can get out, and  to have them compete at the highest level they can achieve.  If we never win a tournament but have kids working hard to compete, I'm good with that. 

[Girls weights information]

Didn't know that.  I was happy to see the 285 maybe we just grow them big here. I got 2 girls over 250. One wasn't going to come out until I told her the max wt. 

[Girls weights information]

My guess would be the reason for the boys wt. classes is because of the maximum wt class of 235.  That is keeping a few possible girls from wrestling. Seems kind of low to me also. 

[Wrestling question for both Girls and Boys.]

After reading the e-mail sent by Angolia to all coaches I extrapolated this. 

Girls can wrestle in both the Boys (or as he states Co-ed) season and the Girls season. 

Am I reading this correctly. 

[Wrestling officials still needed]

I think the real question is why did we lose 33 officials for last year.  I know some have retired or just hung it up after so many years but not 33 of them. 

[Girls weights information]

If we start using trackwrestling for girls will we need to buy a second subscription for girls only? 

[Dual openings Jan 10th and Jan 24th]

Holmes is still looking for a 3rd team for January 24th. 

[Womens coach contact list]

Has there been any discussion about the women's regional tournament? 

Also:  I'm sure I am not the only one still waiting to find out if I will have enough to have a team or not.  Can we get a list of Women only tournaments up.  If I end up with enough to travel I will need to quickly get a schedule together.  

[Dual openings Jan 10th and Jan 24th]

We had a team back out of our senior night on Jan 24th. (Boone County will be here we are looking for a 3rd) 

We also had a schedule conflict on our Jan 10th Tri. (Mason County will be here, we are looking for a 3rd team)

[Super 32]

I am surprised there are not more attending.

However I have always argued the cost.  Many families cannot justify spending part of the families vacation money on only one of their kids. I definatly could not justify it for GOO JR. 

We in Ky still don't have that many wrestling fanatic families.  

[Super 32]

We say this every year.  It's tough to get these kids out at the verge of the football post season. 

[Officials needed for 2023-24 Season!]

Patrick can you send me the link for this payscale.  I need to send it to my AD.

I have something started.  Still debating if I want to commit to actually doing both.

C'mon Ranger its not like you have anything else to do.  You will just be sitting in the Ranger Cave waiting for results anyway. 

Actually I think it would be a good idea if someone else took on this venture.  That way each can keep an accurate account of each season. 

[Dual meets- 6 matches?]

I personally believe the opposite.  Having 6 duals in a day allows for some of the smaller teams to get together to dual.  Most of the time you don't run into a problem because of forfeits but now in that off chance that everyone has a Hwt you don't have to set one out.

I worry about the tournament aspect.  I don't want to see a trend to larger tournaments.  We have a problem with already having to spend most of the day on Saturdays in a gym. 

And if we have a few mega tournaments on every saturday then it reduces the number of tournament on any given weekend.  I would much rather see several tournaments spread throughout the state on every weekend instead of a few huge tournaments in the wrestling hot spots.
