Act Like Youve Been There

GOO - I like this option the best, as well. One question - do you push the season back a week (which I would perfer) or chop a week off? Starting the season earlier really puts the Football players at a disadvantage.

How are the officals picked for the State Tournament? Is there any type of criteria or vote?

"Fan" Thank You for the comments and I will let him know what you said.

I'm really not trying to fan the flames on this - BUT - my son has wrestled at 182 & 170 & 160 this year and I believe if you look at the entire 32 or the top 10 for each weight class, the 170 lb class is tougher AS A WHOLE. But I also believe that the 160 lb Champ (to be crowned) could beat the 170 lb Champ (to be crowned) based on skill and speed. As for OW - WHO CARES! the goal of any wrestler should be to become a STATE CHAMPION. Why worry about an award that has NO SET CRITERIA for who the winner should be?

Conner does a Senior night so we would be glad to "have him" next year, (even though he beat my son by a point this year)! They do a very nice job with it. I think they should be honored for all the time and effort the wrestler and the parents have made over the years. Unfortunately, this year's event did not happen because wrestling was cancelled last Saturday.

You got it!

For Region 5 it say's - "This information is not being released to the Public yet".

Is seeding based soley on record if two wrestlers have not competed against each other? Is how they placed at Regionals or State last year a factor?

Wrestling begins at 10:00am.

Possumdaddy: You are correct - Courtney pinned him with 11 seconds to go in the match. Prior to that the score was 4-1.

Congratulations to Jones. He wrestled hard and smart. He deserved to win that match. Conner's light weight (138) was J. Brandstetter. Thompson looks good at the 195 weight, he was giving up too may pounds at 220.

Well based on my "Screen Name" you know my opinion. I prefer a simple fist pump, point to your group in the stands, then go jump in your coaches arms. If you want to do the "Lexington Leap" and go act like a fool "in the stands" go right ahead. You are no longer on the mat and at that point you are not disrespecting your opponent.

Hopefully those festivities will NOT be allowed. If everyone wants the sport of Wrestling to be respected in Kentucky, the "Animal House" behavior needs to be eliminated! Let's focus on the athletes out on the Mats and not the children up in the stands. Go to any other State and watch thier finals and you will see the fans are there for one purpose. To watch quality wrestling.

Has anyone heard how Jacob Clark of Simon Kenton is doing? Tough to see that happen (an injury) to a good wrestler in the finals.

What teams are currently signed up for this tournament?
