SSHHHHHH

Obviously the math is simple, if you bother to do it. Too many tournament directors have not done so, and you can see it, especially with a new tournament. It is like those NCAA tournaments when there were 34-36 guys in a bracket, where a pigtail guy would win-lose then need to wrestle a pigtail con...

Since Pitt and PaSU, left the conference, and Stabler was built, Stabler has always been the best option, and Jadwin second best option. Before Stabler, Jadwin was the best option. Those two are among the most central. And they are easy to get to, with ample free parking. (Not happy about a $50 park...

A couple of people on here have obviously never ben involved in managing or even setting up a tournament/

I have been thinking there were three parties to this decision. But should it be 5 (or 7) ADs, Presidents, Coaches. But also wrestlers (and students) and alumni and fans

There is a wrestler at Wilson of West Lawn (Drew Kaisers school) who is going into states 51-9. Admittedly a lot of first period pins, but only 2 ffts. He could get 7 more bouts. Last he was 51-10 without placing at states. 160 bouts so far. He is a jr. 172, maybe Sadriddinov semi opponent. Blaise E...

Did Ayres want the Ivy league Tournament to be a qualifier, or did he want it to just be a simple one day event. It is like in PA where a lot of conferences hold a conference tournament, that has nothing to do with sections or districts. (but doesn't count against competition points)

was it Tanelli's idea?

Or did it originate with ADs or Presidents? It could be ironic if it originated with Yale and Dartmouth, but not impossible.

NCAA has strange eligibility. Some restrictions on new programs, some restrictions on schools moving up from a lower division. I see MSU has been D1 longer than I thought. During the 70s and 80s when they put 3(?) guys in the Semis they were D2. I see no reason that an individual sport (Wrestling, T...

Unofficial PIAA pairings are out. Most importantly, Sadriddinov and Spencer are seeded 1-2 and shouldn't meet before the finals. Zeigler #1 with much better record than the other two regional champs in his half bracket. Best record in his half of the bracket is the #5 in his region, possibly his fir...
