  2. Due to technical difficulties tournament info will be posted on Monday... Christian Co. Kentucky won the tournament
  3. I just counted 23 teams... Am I looking at something wrong?
  4. Why is region 5 always one of the largest regions?
  5. I checked out the TSSAA website and this doesn't look the same. Am I looking in the wrong spot? I tend to do that from time to time.
  6. I love how Scottmuke tries to educate the Wilson Central coach of the whereabouts of his school
  7. I agree, I believe there should have just been a penalty point if the ref felt this was illegal. The boy was not really injured... Something has to change on this aspect. I do teach lifting and bringing a kid to the mat, however, I do believe there are techniques to bring someone to the mat without lifting. Lifting needs to be used, but it's gotta be in COMPLETE control. I tell my guys, go ahead and do it, but expect you might get a BOGUS slam call. My reason for saying this was illegal was based on rule book and seeing how the application of the rule has been applied to my wrestlers...
  8. This is why I hate discussing on CoachT. I have stayed off here discussing things for sometime. Someone asks for an opinion, someone states their opinion and then the bombs(personal) start flying... Looking at this video, I made my call based on what I saw. While I don't believe the wrestler being taken to the mat was injured(and yes, shame on his coach) I feel the call was right. I do teach my wrestlers how to lift and bring their opponent to the mat. However, In this case, the wrestler in control had other options. Yes, I wrestled... Yes, I believe that wrestling has been watered down since I wrestled... however, I understand in our society that sues everyone for anything, refs have the err on the side of caution. Based on the rule book, this was a call the ref could make. Hoosierdad, I don't think it should have been stopped as potentially dangerous due to the fact that the boy had control of the wrestler as he had him in the air. It was when he brought him back to the mat the referee probably thought he saw loss of control.
  9. I must be seeing something different. I don't see his knee hit the mat until the kid's head bounces off the mat. There are much more effective ways of bringing a wrestler back to the mat other than lifting your opponent in the air. I'm sorry, but the minute you lift your man in the air... you take the risk of a subjective call of a referee.
  10. I would say illegal. The wrestler being taken to the mat has no way to defend his fall. The wrestler in charge of the lift clearly does not control the fall to the mat.
  11. Smyrna is getting more competitive... Not where we want to be yet... But headed in the right direction. We did pretty good despite missing two starters due to ACT. We brought home two medals and finished 18th in that tough field of 33 teams.
  12. Nashville Christian completes the list...

  14. Well I guess it finally happened. I'm too old to figure out a new piece of technology. Where do we now print our weigh-in sheets for matches? I can't seem to find that on the new system... Thanks, Coach Gonyea
  15. Coaches, I don't normally do this, however, if you are in the market for singlets... you need to look into wrestling addix... They did our singlets in two weeks.. they look AMAZING.. they are dye sublimated and the turn around is so fast... http://wrestlingaddixstore.com BTW.. this is NOT SPAM... this is actually from me...
  16. Coaches, if you have the M.T.S.U almuni duals on your schedule and have not contacted Coach Knepper of myself ([email protected]) Please do so ASAP... Thanks...
