Coaches

With school being cancelled for many today and some practice cancellations, we will be giving a 1 pound allowance in the morning. So the 70 pounders will be allowed to weigh 73.

Please drive safe in your travels and looking forward to having a great tournament.

See you at State!

Thanks

Could somebody please post the information for the state meet, that includes places, time, etc.  I have looked at KYSWA and there is not much there except hosted by Montgomery Co.  I went to their web site and all it has on the calendar is the state meet.  Thanks

With all the Winter Weather and Road conditions i foresee some schools backing out. When and if is there a deadline for the Alternates to be notified if they have been placed on a bracket.

I have a question to ask you.

Alternates will be notified once the Board is aware of a kid not able to make the event.

So therefore, some alternates will need to make the trip to find out Saturday morning if they are in or not in. Its a gamble and I understand this. I'm having three of my alternates make the two hour trip with the unknown.

What's the latest word out there? Any teams not making it due to the weather?

Will this go on with the snow and all, I have seen some high schools already cancel all activities for Sat?

The HS thread says all Jefferson Co and all Hardin Co schools got all activities cancelled for the weekend and can't host or travel to a tournament. Does this incude the middle schools or are they aloud to go to the middle school state tournament?

Wow that stinks if it does pertain to the middle school kids

Can the board post the bracket updates ASAP. If some alternates get to wrestle i am sure Parents will be on the roads first thing in the morning. Also just heard John Hardin made the trip and is in town. No word yet on central hardin.

I know some of the wrestlers said they are wrestling no matter what the school says.

Good for those wrestlers. I applaud them. Too bad the people sitting in an office somewhere make decisions that take away a kids hard work, effort and dreams of a state title. I doubt that any of those people would ever understand what is takes to wrestle.

Wow that stinks if it does pertain to the middle school kids

That is the biggest reason that many of the wrestling clubs are chartered and each wrestler has a USAW cards. KHSAA does not govern MS/Youth Wrestling events. They are sanctioned by USA Wrestling and carry there own liability insurance. The only portion that USAW cannot control is school transportation. This is up to the parents to get them to the event if they so choose

I think everyone wrestled today that qualified. Not 100% sure but pretty sure

Moore had 6 qualifiers that could not participate.

I feel awful for any kid who earned his way there but couldn't compete.

If a school team goes in bad weather and God forbid an accident happens, parents ad lawyers will line up to attack the administration. Their hands are tied.

We Johnson County parents loaded our kids up and drove them there ourselves which im sure many others did as well.

Yea schools are damned if they do damned if they don't. Sorry for the Moore kids that stinks
