This is awful. I would love to have a conversation with someone who can actually do something about this. If this passes and we go to a 3 class (AAAA, AAA, AA/A) tourney this is how it looks: AAAA: R1-5 teams R2-6 Teams R3-4 Teams R4-5 Teams AAA: R1-8 Teams R2-4 Teams R3-11 Teams R4-6 Teams AA/A: R...

Agreed!

Yes you may or may not be an adult but you are surely talking. You have given zero examples of your ridiculous theory. Region 1 IS way better than your region. Period.

You are making silly statements now.

Webster's definition of "Entitled" : believing oneself to be inherently deserving of privileges or special treatment. How does winning at least 14 more matches than your region show special treatment. Are you saying that referees are giving region 1 athletes special treatment?? Keep looki...

> is a symbol for greater than

Willful ignorance is a term broadly described as deliberately dismissing adequate reasoning. Region 1 wins 42, region 2 wins 22, region 3 wins 20, region 4 wins 28. 42 > any number in the twenties.

The examples that support my claims is as follows: The most competitive matches in the Regional Tournament should be the Consolation Semifinals, because it is either do or die. If you win you qualify for the state tournament and if you lose you get to sit and watch. In each region there are 28 of t...

I am sure there are plenty of examples that dispute my opinion, I will not argue that, but there are plenty of examples that support it. The point was that it is not a viable option to revise the qualification process for the entire state, just to benefit one or two people fighting for a 5th place ...

Coming from a friend who took time to do the research. Please note that the stats may be off by one or two, but these statistics are very close. Since 2017 through 2022 Region 1 227 Place winners 37 Champions Region 2 123 Place winners 7 Champs Region 3 119 Place winners 20 champs Region 4 120 Plac...

Ok again is region one tougher than region 2,3, and 4? The answer is “yes”. If one can’t admit that then there really is no sense in discussing much with this person

Wait… aren’t you the guy that thought a person could move up a bunch of weight classes or something?? I’ll take twice as many state placers over more champs any day Just look at region state tournament points. Thats all that matters. I get that some “fans” don’t understand the ins and outs of wrestl...

You said "where was the outrage when it was region 4" Im just saying it was NEVER region 4. Thanks 2006 region 4 places 33 at states…meaning the other 51 spots was between three regions…average 17 per region. Not quite rankings…not double. But…close. You’re welcome. “Beware of the ringwor...

You said "where was the outrage when it was region 4" Im just saying it was NEVER region 4. Thanks

Would regionals need fixed annually? Why is there not this same outrage when it was region 4? Why is it always us northern folks crying loudest? We got things to fix, but it probably is not regional alignment! “Beware of the ringworm!” — Caitlin Clark Region 4 never had twice as many ranked wrestle...

1 class place top 8. Take 32 in each weight class. Give over all team award. Then overall aaa overall aa overall a. Award the top two teams in each division. Give ow to aaa one to aa and one to single a.

Andy Thomas was one of the most dominant wrestlers I ever watched. He's gotta be one of the best four timers. The Easter brothers were tough as well One stat that has to be a record is Zach Frazier was only taken down once in his whole high school career If true …That kinda makes one think he shoul...

Heck region 1 had a ranked returning state placer not make the state tourney this year. Obviously he would have won some matches had he won in the blood round. It is not always a blowout from 1st and 2nd place. Wrestle back points often can make or break a tournament winning team.

The whole point that a/aa region one is much tougher to qualify for the state tournament. I have seen no argument that disputes this. Well, this is not the whole point that I or I believe others have been talking about from the beginning. The whole point is the original statement, "This hurts ...

I mean combine a aa and aaa into one class. Everything else we are talking past each other

The whole point that a/aa region one is much tougher to qualify for the state tournament. I have seen no argument that disputes this.

Wrestlers with losing records making the state tournament is exactly why there should be just one class. The state is watered down enough We might have found an area where we are close to being in agreement. Although 2 bigger regions and sending eight from each might be a better fix than combining ...

Can anyone name any state placer with a losing record?? To go a little deeper: Josh Dearth - park south (12-13) 6th, 1998 CJ Runion - Huntington (16-20) 6th, 2003 Zach Six - Oak Glen (22-34) 5th, 2005 Raymond Davis - Parkersburg (9-12) 6th, 2014 Danny Minihan - Huntington (18-21) 6th, 2015 “Watch o...

Wrestlers with losing records making the state tournament is exactly why there should be just one class. The state is watered down enough So only reason this can happen is because the region is weak vs a kid hitting their stride? Maybe healed up from injury? Maybe recovered from bad weight cuts? Ca...

For reference, these garbage regions produced 11 of the 14 champions last year, with region III and region I each having 3 and region IV having 8. What bums. I'm surprised they are even allowed to show their faces with those cake walks :lol: :lol: :lol: "Beware of the ringworm!" -- Spence...
