You mean tomorrow's big match...postponed to Friday, 5 pm, at John Sevier Middle School.

As for this statement, I was out of position and cannot speak first-hand as to the certainty of the pin. But I do know this official, and trust me, he would not call the pin unless he was sure. And he would definitely take issue if anyone accused him of doing otherwise. He is as knowledgeable of wrestling as any coach or official in the state (he is a former coach and a very good one at that) and above all he is a good, honest man. And even if he was inclined to make a dishonest call, he certainly wouldn't call it in favor of D-B because of where he's from and where his loyalties would lie. So I'm not really sure what you're trying to say here...

Frye pinned Cline with one second left...the ref clearly indicated the pin came before the buzzer. Score was 7-4 Frye when the pin occurred. Not sure what the controversy was at 152. Team score was 69-6 D-B...perhaps a somewhat misleading score as MW forfeited five matches and D-B one.

Yes, it will be Mo West & Crockett at D-B on Tuesday at 6:30, and Science Hill at D-B on Thursday, also at 6:30.

He is Bearden's 171.

Anybody have results of the Morristown duals tournament from yesterday??

Well, it looks like Greenback is on several Knox-area schedules this season, and that they have weighed 8 wrestlers...I hope this isn't true, that would be terrible! Who exactly told you this??

Tomorrow begins the regular season and Region 1 has been uncharacteristically quiet this fall. I guess between the coaches not wanting to reveal their secrets and all the flamers out there causing trouble and drama, no one wants to post much anymore. Well, for anyone wondering what's been going on, the BMI testing and takedown tournament at Science Hill last week went well, several local teams plus Kingston and Christ School (NC)competed and a good time was had by all. Many kids failed hydration, for some teams more than half, which is kind of unusual. Round 2 BMI testing at Crockett was followed by a duals jamboree-type competition yesterday. Lots of kids showed up to test with I think something like 178 passing. Not sure what percentage passed hydration, but I believe it was much higher than last week. 28 duals matches followed with everyone done around 4:45 despite starting at 10, which was about 30 minutes later than scheduled. Most teams received at least three matches. Judging from these two preseason events, it appears that numbers are looking good and there are many competitive wrestlers in Region 1. Coaches have done a great job training their kids despite only three weeks of practice. Good luck to everyone and I hope we can get some updates and POSITIVE comments on this forum as the season goes on!

Region 1 Chuckey-Doak 12 Cocke Co. 10 Daniel Boone 8 David Crockett 13 Dobyns-Bennett 14 Elizabethton 5 Greeneville 13 Hancock Co. 5 Happy Valley 8 Jefferson Co. 14 Morristown East 11 Morristown West 10 Science Hill 14 Sevier Co. 1 Seymour 14 South Doyle 12 Sullivan East 11 Sullivan South 8 Tennessee High 14 Volunteer 7 West Greene 8 5 of 21 had full lineups at the time of the regional tournament.

I'm sure they didn't...1/2 may be generous....and look at Intermat results in states across the country, including Nebraska, Iowa, Pennsylvania, Ohio, New Jersey, Oklahoma, California, etc....lots and lots of forfeits. Too many forfeits. How is this "growing" the sport? I believe that adding weight classes is a preposterous idea. I say take it back down to 12! And for anyone who's gonna come on here and call me names for saying that, please don't...it's just my opinion and I'm entitled to it.

SO EXPLAIN HOW THEY CAN HAVE THE D-2 INVITATIONAL ON THE STATE DUALS WEEKEND. I WOULD BET THAT IT DOES NOT COUNT AGAINST THEIR 18 DATES EITHER. IS IT PUT ON BY THE TSSAA? THIS MAKE NO SENSE TO ME. THE ANIMAL

Merry Christmas to everybody in Region 1!!! It's been awfully quiet on here...no posts since Dec. 3, and that one was apparently from someone outside of the region (by the way, bwm, South does have wrestling and they are competitive at several weight classes, especially 112 and 119). So how's everybody been doing? Crockett is 10-4 in duals and finished 11th (of 34) at the Indian Classic...
