I would like to receive results for both 2023 and 2024, but Ill take what I can get.br />br />I have some more stuff to post, and I hope to have everything else caught up by Monday or Tuesday, and plan to mail Academic All-State certificates to middle school coaches and any high school coaches who didnt receive them at the state tournament.br />br />li>i>b>Thursday, March 7, 2024/b>br />b>a href/statetou/statetou.htm>State Tournament page/a> updates:/b>br />a href/statetou/alphawrestlers.htm>Individual Champs, Alphabetical Listing/a>br />a href/statetou/coachchamps.htm>Individual Champs, by Coach/a>br />a href/statetou/schoolreport.htm>Individual Champs, by School/a>br />a href/statetou/2130aach.htm>Individual Champs by Year, 2021- Present AA/A/a>br />a href/statetou/2130aaach.htm>Individual Champs by Year, 2021- Present AAA/a>br />a href/statetou/teamcham.htm>West Virginia High School Team Champions, from 1948/a>br />br />b>a href/outstand/outstand.htm>Outstanding Contributors page/a> updates:/b>br />a href/outstand/multiyea.htm>Four Time and Three Time State Champions/a>br />a href/outstand/wrestler.htm>Outstanding Wrestler Award Winners/a>br />a href/statetou/coachchamps.htm>Top Coaches of State Champions/a>br />a href/outstand/dualvict.htm>Top Dual Meet Victories, Coaches/a> (Note: This list is outdated.

That is so that coaches may vote anonymously - no identifying data is associated with these usernames. If you have access you have been using for a few years and are OK with it, that is fine.br />2. Coaches will only be allowed to vote on teams in their own classification. This prevents, for instance, a coach from one of the AAA schools from voting an overall agree with WVMat vote when he has never even seen any of the Single A teams in action.br />br />b>Updated team pages:/b>br /> a href/teams/fairmont.htm>Fairmont Senior High School/a> (schedule)br /> a href/teams/georgewa.htm>George Washington High School/a> (schedule)br /> a href/teams/vandeven.htm>Van Devender Middle School/a> (team information)br />br />a href/schedule/schedule.htm>Boys High School Master Schedules/a> updated - may need to refresh your browser on each months schedulebr />br />b>a href/youth/youth.htm>Youth and open tournament/a> updates/announcements:/b>br /> b>Open tournaments located in West Virginia:/b>br /> Correct flyer posted for a href/youth/24DannySuite3.pdf>Clay County 17th Annual Danny Suite Memorial Tournament/a>: February 18, 2024br />br /> b>Open tournaments located in Pennsylvania:/b>br /> a href/youth/24McGuffeySledgehammerOpen.pdf>McGuffey Sledgehammer Open Tournament/a>: January 20, 2024br /> a href/youth/24McGuffeySledgehammerNovice.pdf>McGuffey Sledgehammer Novice Tournament/a>: January 21, 2024br />br />li>i>b>Monday, December 11, 2023 /b>br />FONT SIZE+3>B>CONGRATULATIONS TO 2023 175-LB IRONMAN CHAMPION GAGE WRIGHT OF PARKERSBURG SOUTH!/B>/FONT>br />br />FONT SIZE+2>B>CONGRATULATIONS TO 2023 WOMENS IRONMAN PLACEWINNERS!br />JUSTICE ANTHONY OF PARKERSBURG SOUTH (Runner-Up @ 120)br />CIARA RINER OF SPRING VALLEY (4th @ 140)/B>/FONT>br />br />b>High School a hrefhttp://www.wvmat.com/scores/24scores/00scndhs.htm>scores/a> updated/b>br />br />b>Middle School a hrefhttp://www.wvmat.com/scores/24scores/00scndjh.htm>scores/a> updated/b>br />br />b>a href/youth/youth.htm>Youth and open tournament/a> updates/announcements:/b>br /> b>Open tournaments located in West Virginia:/b>br /> a href/youth/24DannySuite.pdf>Clay County 17th Annual Danny Suite Memorial Tournament/a>: February 18, 2024br />br />b>Tournament Cancellations:/b>br />Nicholas County Lady Grizzly Slam (December 16)br />Bridgeport Youth Wrestling Tournament (February 4)br />br />a href#hstourn>b>2023-2024 High School Tournament Dates/a>:/b>br /> a href/temp/24Braxton.pdf>Braxton County Invitational/a>: January 13-14, 2024br />br />a href#mstourn>b>2023-2024 Middle School Tournament Dates/a>:/b>br /> a href/temp/23WoodrowWilsonDuals.pdf>Woodrow Wilson Middle School Duals/a>: December 16, 2023br />br />li>i>b>Sunday, December 10, 2023 /b>br />A few b>high school a hrefhttp://www.wvmat.com/scores/24scores/00scndhs.htm>scores/a> updated/b>.

This is a special area of the forum to which only coaches have access. Also, coach usernames/passwords given for voting purposes are given as aaacoach456 or some such, and email attached to that particular coachs name come to me. That is so that coaches may vote anonymously - no identifying data is associated with these usernames. If you have access you have been using for a few years and are OK with it, that is fine.br />2. We are changing the team poll voting this year. Coaches will only be allowed to vote on teams in their own classification. This prevents, for instance, a coach from one of the AAA schools from voting an overall agree with WVMat vote when he has never even seen any of the Single A teams in action.br />br />a hrefhttp://wvmat.com/statetou/stateduals.htm>High School State Duals/a> page updated with 2023 schedules and bracketsbr />br />li>i>b>Monday, January 23, 2023/b>br />a href/youth/youth.htm>Youth and open tournament/a> updates/announcements:br />Updated flyer posted for a href/youth/23BridgeportBrawl2.pdf>Bridgeport Brawl/a>: January 28, 2023br />a href/youth/23VikingSmashYouth.pdf>Viking Smash Youth Tournament/a>: January 29, 2023br /> Flyer posted for a href/youth/23RamTough.pdf>Southern Mat Club Ram Tough Tournament/a>: February 11, 2023br /> a href/youth/23TakeItToTheMat.pdf>Take It To The Mat/a>: March 4, 2023br />a href/youth/23MAWAWest.pdf>MAWA West District Qualifier/a>: March 18, 2023br />br />January High School a hrefhttp://www.wvmat.com/scores/23scores/00scjnhs.htm>scores/a> updatedbr />br />January Middle School a hrefhttp://www.wvmat.com/scores/23scores/00scjnjh.htm>scores /a>updatedbr />br />li>i>b>Sunday, January 22, 2023/b>br />My apologies for being MIA the past few days.

Speaking with Coach Hays the start time will be pushed to 8 AM for weigh ins and skin checks.br /> JV participants will need to be dropped from the tournament due to the one day. Again, we will still utilize the cards to gain entry.

I will let those schools know when I get the word.br /> It will be base + 3 on Saturday.

Really hard for us to get kids out to work for both tournaments. As of now, food will be allowed to be brought in the back.br />Wvssac paid $21500 for meals for kids, officials and coaches last year.br />Billbr />br />li>i>b>Saturday, January 8, 2022 /b>br />January High School a hrefhttp://www.wvmat.com/scores/22scores/00scjnhs.htm>scores /a>updatedbr />br /> January Middle School a hrefhttp://www.wvmat.com/scores/22scores/00scjnjh.htm>scores /a>updatedbr />br /> Middle School School Academic a href/academic/jrhonor.htm>All State and Honor Roll/a> updated (Mountain Ridge Middle)br />br />b>2021-2022 High School Tournament Dates:/b>br />Flyer posted for a href/temp/22BobZideRumble.pdf>Williamstown Bob Zide Rumble/a>, January 22, 2022br />br />li>i>b>Friday, January 7, 2022 /b>br />Middle School School Academic a href/academic/jrhonor.htm>All State and Honor Roll/a> updated (Musselman Middle)br />br />b>HS/MS coaches, principals, or athletic directors, please submit nominees for your teams Academic All State and Honor Roll recognition!

All Region I wrestlers will be bumped up where applicable, and the AAA Region I 5th-place finisher in each weight class will now fill the F1 position in the respective brackets.br />br />Complete updates will be posted soon, and corrected brackets will be forthcoming. Coaches will be given updated brackets at the state tournament.br />br />Editors note: While its always heartbreaking for a wrestler to have to withdraw from the state tournament for any reason, its absolutely devastating when an entire team has to withdraw. I am not ashamed to say that I am a praying person. I am sincerely praying for peace and comfort for these young men, their coaches, their families, and their fans. Please take a moment to do the same, and also thank God for His mercy. It could just as well have been YOUR team.

This is a very competitive early season tournament with many top-ranked (returning state placers and state champions) wrestlers from, Ohio, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, and Virginia.br />br /> I understand that many teams may have their schedule set for the season, however, if you would like to only send your top wrestlers to this event, this would be an excellent opportunity for them to have some early season competition to use as a measuring tool for the remainder of the season. This would also be a chance for you to see if our tournament is something you would be interested in next season. br /> br /> Currently, we have 22 teams committed and an estimated 8-10 ranked wrestlers in each weight class (based on weight class predictions for this season). I am contacting the top wrestlers in each weight in all divisions in Ohio and Pennsylvania to invite them into the tournament as well. Each season wrestlers from this tournament will place in their respective state tournaments.br /> br /> I have a projected list of returning wrestlers I can share if you are interested. Contact me anytime through this email or via cell (740) 359-7456.

If you need a username/password to get in this area, send an email to a hrefmailto:wvmat@outlook.com>wvmat@outlook.com/a> and well set one up for you.br />br />A couple of notes:br />1. This is a special area of the forum to which only coaches have access. Also, coach usernames/passwords given for voting purposes are given as aaacoach456 or some such, and email attached to that particular coachs name come to me. That is so that coaches may vote anonymously - no identifying data is associated with these usernames. If you have access you have been using for a few years and are OK with it, that is fine.br />2. Coaches will only be allowed to vote on teams in their own classification. This prevents, for instance, a coach from one of the AAA schools from voting an overall agree with WVMat vote when he has never even seen any of the Single A teams in action.br />br />b>Updated team pages:/b>br /> a href/teams/fairmont.htm>Fairmont Senior High School/a> (schedule)br /> a href/teams/georgewa.htm>George Washington High School/a> (schedule)br /> a href/teams/vandeven.htm>Van Devender Middle School/a> (team information)br />br />a href/schedule/schedule.htm>Boys High School Master Schedules/a> updated - may need to refresh your browser on each months schedulebr />br />b>a href/youth/youth.htm>Youth and open tournament/a> updates/announcements:/b>br /> b>Open tournaments located in West Virginia:/b>br /> Correct flyer posted for a href/youth/24DannySuite3.pdf>Clay County 17th Annual Danny Suite Memorial Tournament/a>: February 18, 2024br />br /> b>Open tournaments located in Pennsylvania:/b>br /> a href/youth/24McGuffeySledgehammerOpen.pdf>McGuffey Sledgehammer Open Tournament/a>: January 20, 2024br /> a href/youth/24McGuffeySledgehammerNovice.pdf>McGuffey Sledgehammer Novice Tournament/a>: January 21, 2024br />br />li>i>b>Monday, December 11, 2023 /b>br />FONT SIZE+3>B>CONGRATULATIONS TO 2023 175-LB IRONMAN CHAMPION GAGE WRIGHT OF PARKERSBURG SOUTH!/B>/FONT>br />br />FONT SIZE+2>B>CONGRATULATIONS TO 2023 WOMENS IRONMAN PLACEWINNERS!br />JUSTICE ANTHONY OF PARKERSBURG SOUTH (Runner-Up @ 120)br />CIARA RINER OF SPRING VALLEY (4th @ 140)/B>/FONT>br />br />b>High School a hrefhttp://www.wvmat.com/scores/24scores/00scndhs.htm>scores/a> updated/b>br />br />b>Middle School a hrefhttp://www.wvmat.com/scores/24scores/00scndjh.htm>scores/a> updated/b>br />br />b>a href/youth/youth.htm>Youth and open tournament/a> updates/announcements:/b>br /> b>Open tournaments located in West Virginia:/b>br /> a href/youth/24DannySuite.pdf>Clay County 17th Annual Danny Suite Memorial Tournament/a>: February 18, 2024br />br />b>Tournament Cancellations:/b>br />Nicholas County Lady Grizzly Slam (December 16)br />Bridgeport Youth Wrestling Tournament (February 4)br />br />a href#hstourn>b>2023-2024 High School Tournament Dates/a>:/b>br /> a href/temp/24Braxton.pdf>Braxton County Invitational/a>: January 13-14, 2024br />br />a href#mstourn>b>2023-2024 Middle School Tournament Dates/a>:/b>br /> a href/temp/23WoodrowWilsonDuals.pdf>Woodrow Wilson Middle School Duals/a>: December 16, 2023br />br />li>i>b>Sunday, December 10, 2023 /b>br />A few b>high school a hrefhttp://www.wvmat.com/scores/24scores/00scndhs.htm>scores/a> updated/b>.

This is a special area of the forum to which only coaches have access. Also, coach usernames/passwords given for voting purposes are given as aaacoach456 or some such, and email attached to that particular coachs name come to me. That is so that coaches may vote anonymously - no identifying data is associated with these usernames. If you have access you have been using for a few years and are OK with it, that is fine.br />2. We are changing the team poll voting this year. Coaches will only be allowed to vote on teams in their own classification. This prevents, for instance, a coach from one of the AAA schools from voting an overall agree with WVMat vote when he has never even seen any of the Single A teams in action.br />br />a hrefhttp://wvmat.com/statetou/stateduals.htm>High School State Duals/a> page updated with 2023 schedules and bracketsbr />br />li>i>b>Monday, January 23, 2023/b>br />a href/youth/youth.htm>Youth and open tournament/a> updates/announcements:br />Updated flyer posted for a href/youth/23BridgeportBrawl2.pdf>Bridgeport Brawl/a>: January 28, 2023br />a href/youth/23VikingSmashYouth.pdf>Viking Smash Youth Tournament/a>: January 29, 2023br /> Flyer posted for a href/youth/23RamTough.pdf>Southern Mat Club Ram Tough Tournament/a>: February 11, 2023br /> a href/youth/23TakeItToTheMat.pdf>Take It To The Mat/a>: March 4, 2023br />a href/youth/23MAWAWest.pdf>MAWA West District Qualifier/a>: March 18, 2023br />br />January High School a hrefhttp://www.wvmat.com/scores/23scores/00scjnhs.htm>scores/a> updatedbr />br />January Middle School a hrefhttp://www.wvmat.com/scores/23scores/00scjnjh.htm>scores /a>updatedbr />br />li>i>b>Sunday, January 22, 2023/b>br />My apologies for being MIA the past few days.

Speaking with Coach Hays the start time will be pushed to 8 AM for weigh ins and skin checks.br /> JV participants will need to be dropped from the tournament due to the one day. Again, we will still utilize the cards to gain entry.

I will let those schools know when I get the word.br /> It will be base + 3 on Saturday.

Really hard for us to get kids out to work for both tournaments. As of now, food will be allowed to be brought in the back.br />Wvssac paid $21500 for meals for kids, officials and coaches last year.br />Billbr />br />li>i>b>Saturday, January 8, 2022 /b>br />January High School a hrefhttp://www.wvmat.com/scores/22scores/00scjnhs.htm>scores /a>updatedbr />br /> January Middle School a hrefhttp://www.wvmat.com/scores/22scores/00scjnjh.htm>scores /a>updatedbr />br /> Middle School School Academic a href/academic/jrhonor.htm>All State and Honor Roll/a> updated (Mountain Ridge Middle)br />br />b>2021-2022 High School Tournament Dates:/b>br />Flyer posted for a href/temp/22BobZideRumble.pdf>Williamstown Bob Zide Rumble/a>, January 22, 2022br />br />li>i>b>Friday, January 7, 2022 /b>br />Middle School School Academic a href/academic/jrhonor.htm>All State and Honor Roll/a> updated (Musselman Middle)br />br />b>HS/MS coaches, principals, or athletic directors, please submit nominees for your teams Academic All State and Honor Roll recognition!

All Region I wrestlers will be bumped up where applicable, and the AAA Region I 5th-place finisher in each weight class will now fill the F1 position in the respective brackets.br />br />Complete updates will be posted soon, and corrected brackets will be forthcoming. Coaches will be given updated brackets at the state tournament.br />br />Editors note: While its always heartbreaking for a wrestler to have to withdraw from the state tournament for any reason, its absolutely devastating when an entire team has to withdraw. I am not ashamed to say that I am a praying person. I am sincerely praying for peace and comfort for these young men, their coaches, their families, and their fans. Please take a moment to do the same, and also thank God for His mercy. It could just as well have been YOUR team.

See note from Coach Abbott below:br />br />The wrestling season is quickly approaching and I would like to invite your team to participate in the 2022 Barnesville Wrestling Invitational held on December 16-17. This is a very competitive early season tournament with many top-ranked (returning state placers and state champions) wrestlers from, Ohio, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, and Virginia.br />br /> I understand that many teams may have their schedule set for the season, however, if you would like to only send your top wrestlers to this event, this would be an excellent opportunity for them to have some early season competition to use as a measuring tool for the remainder of the season. This would also be a chance for you to see if our tournament is something you would be interested in next season. br /> br /> Currently, we have 22 teams committed and an estimated 8-10 ranked wrestlers in each weight class (based on weight class predictions for this season). I am contacting the top wrestlers in each weight in all divisions in Ohio and Pennsylvania to invite them into the tournament as well. Each season wrestlers from this tournament will place in their respective state tournaments.br /> br /> I have a projected list of returning wrestlers I can share if you are interested. Contact me anytime through this email or via cell (740) 359-7456. Dont miss this great opportunity for your wrestlers.br /> br /> b>LI>Posted September 22, 2022br />br />/b>The Hatfield & McCoy 32 Wrestling tournaments will take place December 27 28 (high school Boys and Girls) and 29 (youth) at the Appalachian Wireless Arena in downtown Pikeville Ky.
