NFHS rules changes for 2008/2009 have been released. Check out Wrestler 07's post on General Wrestling this site or NFHS website. No mention of new weight classes or 3 point takedowns.

Also they are going to change to the college weight classes. This will cut down on length of all tournaments.

Zarth took first at 130 lbs.

Based on Rangers rankings, with 1st = 5, 2nd =4 .....5th = 1, in a regional tournament (not duals),team scores would be: 1. Henry Clay 2. Harrison Co. 3. Tates Creek 4. Franklin Co. 5. Woodford CO. 6. Lafayette 7. Dunbar 8. Bryan Station 9. Montgomery Co. 10. Bourbon Co. 11. Western Hills

We have High School Nationals, Fr. So. Junior and Sr. and Freestyle Nationals,which are in July in Fargo(Cadet and Junior Nationals).

The State Duals were started by the Kentucky Wrestling Coaches Association because the KHSAA does not provide a state duals tournament. The results (1st and 2nd place) are listed on their web site. This is an Invitational Tournament with the top two teams from each region being invited. However, not all teams accept and there has always been substitions(host school or other teams that did not qualify but want to participate). This is a pool formate with the winner of each pool wrestling for places 1-4,the runner-up of each pool wrestling for 5-8. The 3rd and 4th place teams from each pool then wrestle one more match but do not wrestle out for place. So you have a two way tie for 9th, 11th, 13th and 15th. The top 4 teams are seeded then the other #1's are drawn in then the #2's are drawn in(the #1 and #2 from each region are placed on opposite sides of the brackett). All of the proceeds from this tournament go th the KWCA, so come on out and see the best teams dual at Henry Clay this saturday.
