    To read more about how Title IX is just a convenient and lousy excuse for university officials to say no go to www.usawrestling.org forum section. Title IX prohibits any sex discrimination. In Kentucky, university leaders are discriminating against males. Anyway, wrestling can be a coed sport if you declare it so. If she wins the wrestle off she gets the position. Go read more about it...

    J.V. State and results?

    Attention J.V. wrestlers and coaches! Make sure your team participates in this JV STATE Tournament next year. It will only get bigger and better! Moore High School worked their tails off! A gold medal goes to your staff and volunteers!

    J.V. State and results?

    Yes we need the results! It was at Moore High School in Jefferson Co. The biggest challenge is they only had two mats. That's not enough for a tournament of this size. They did their best with not enough tools.

    Seneca vs. Moore 1/9/08

    Six forfeits? What caused so many forfeits?

    12-12: Seneca 36, St. X 30

    Ranger, seems like this in itself gives a little evidence and the recent Jefferson Co. Tournament speaks well for St. X too as a dark horse. Anyway, we will be able to match up these rankings with the state tournament and see how you do. Did you rank this way last year and how did it measure up to the state results? You have a tough volunteer job!

    Large public university to start wrestling team?

    Dragonmaster, I am sure women wrestlers are getting scholarships at any school that has a wrestling program. You can't give scholarships to only one sex. Cumberland's program has many young women who get scholarships. Yes we need to support Cumberland and Campbellsville programs. My point was not that we need D1 wrestling but we need one PUBLIC university with the lower state supported tuition in order to advance the sport in this state. Northern Ky U. would be a great start! That's good the state legislature has passed a resolution in favor. Take that to each AD and their staff. Individual letters to AD's from people who are strangers to them will do little good. This really must be a priority effort by the coaches association or a booster with money who has access. Comb your lists of athletic donors to public universities to find someone who once wrestled or has a kid who does now. They can get an appointment and make the case. It seems like just one university should realize the potential in having students from 75-80 high schools to now be considering them for application!

    Number of Middle School Matches

    The Kentucky High School Athletic Asso has no rules about this. I don't think USA Wrestling does either but you should contact them.

  11. Now with the important Jefferson Co. Tournament completed it will be interesting to see how this affects the rankings. Moore (4th) and St. Xavier (3rd) should be moving up the state's team list. Many individuals will have important changes to their rankings if the list is kept accurate and current.

    It can't be Title IX because wrestling is considered a "co-ed sport" on a national basis. It is not for just males only anymore. USA Wrestling's national website has information to debunk that myth and their leaders have been working to convince college athletic departments that they should put this co-ed sport in their programs. Since women are wrestling now, the fact that athletic departments won't initiate wrestling makes them appear to be anti-women. Title IX is actually on our side if you approach the arguement in this way.

    Are you trying to say they are not very smart because they are managed and run by basketball and football people?

    12-12: Seneca 36, St. X 30

    This was a really close one! For St. X to do this well against Seneca, it should make them rise in the rankings.
