Middle school wrestling in Knoxville area

[Matman1124]

I apologize for bringing this here but the last post on the middle school board in wrestling was two months ago and I'm needing some info rather quickly.

 

Since the tmsaa has removed the independent game rule for the time being, we are contemplating starting wrestling at my school in which i am the AD. I understand aau runs most wrestling in this area, however with the new rules, these folks could wrestle for their school and aau clubs. Cab you give me any schools in the area that have teams or will be getting them? We are likely to start a team this upcoming year. Thanks all

I have been told that Knoxville Catholic would like to start a team.  Knoxville Webb has fielded a middle school team in the past.  The difficult thing is finding qualified coaches that want to work with middle school kids.

I can't speak for the Knoxville area.  Upper East Tennessee has had an established middle school league for the last 15-20 years.  It has been made up at times of feeder programs for Jefferson, Morristown, Greeneville, Science Hill, Tennessee High, Elizabethton, Volunteer and a few others.  I think they have expanded and split into two regions recently but have expanded the number of teams involved.  They also wrestle middle schools in Virginia and the Chattanooga area.  You can get in tough with the ADs or coaches at those schools if you want to pattern their successful models.
