I believe your right on the 182. Really pulling for the Avery 120. His dad was state champion at Avery from back in the day. Not getting beat in the 1st round will be big with no consolations.

For at least the last 10 years Mount Airy has Girls and Boys soccer teams. I think the Girls play in the spring and the boys in the fall. The boys have had soccer since sometime in the early 1990s.
Didn't the girl from Mount Airy Hope Horan advance to the State finals or I took that from the MA Athletics Twitter I posted on post #35 above.
I was just wondering, I know nothing about wrestling and how the process of who moves on. It just caught my attention this year with it posted on football which is fine and a girl from Mount Airy was going to the regional finals.

Yes, she made the tournament. I don’t expect her to make the finals but could get on the podium. Good chance she gets 4th.
It’s not hard. You have a regional tournament 1st. In 1a you have just a West regional and a East regional. Top 4 in each region make it to the state tournament to decide who the state champion is. Whoever wins the region in the West goes against whoever finished 4th in the East and vice versa in 1a. 2a,3a,and 4a gets a little more difficult since you have 4 regional tournaments. 1a has a 8 man bracket the other classes have a 16 man bracket to decide a state champion after regionals.
Does this take place in each weight group, a 1 thru 4th place finish ?
Yes in state placers go 1 to 4. The other 3 classes have 6 placers. I guess this year 2a,3a,and 4a will only have 4 since there are no consolation rounds. The losers in the semis in each class will wrestle to see who gets 3rd and 4th. So you better not get beat till the semis.

Avery, Robbinsville, Uwharrie Charter and Rosewood have been the class of 1A for a long time. With the new realignment there are a few quality programs that have competed in 2A well and won state titles or had individuals win 2A state titles that may add to the mix here. With that said, any team looking to win a state title will have to go through one of those four to do so, especially Avery the next few seasons.
West regionals will be very interesting next year. Uwharrie goes to the West with the new realignment.
Rumor is uwharrie will stay east for wrestling. Too many teams in the east that actually have wrestling programs moved west. Supposedly leaving only 9 or 10 teams east and 30 some west. The state will have to address this issue some way. Needs to be closer to 50 percent split
If that’s the case they definitely need to do something to even it up. A lot good kids would miss out on going to the state tournament if they are all in the West.

Maybe Avery brings back 8 state finalist out the 10 and got few good 8th graders coming in.
USA Wrestling putting on a show at the Olympics. Both Men and Women teams having a great tournament.
Haven’t talked to my friend who sons wrestles. Shell committed to App St. Hopefully these kids get a normal season this year.
I think it will be normal in terms of allowing schools to attend more events but things will get canceled and moved like we are seeing in football. The state won't have any special limits on the sport.
I think wrestling. He might be committed to a school but hasn’t went public yet.I hope they get to go to tournaments this year on weekends.
Day 1 for winter sports. Crazy to think football can last 6 more weeks for some. Well time to roll out the mats and start wrestling in my book.
There was many many years that this was the beginning Of exciting times around Mitchell high. Now not so much, but I will still make as many matches as I can to support the program. Hopefully they will turn it around and become players again.
Go Mountaineers
Cant really sugar coat it Mitchell wrestling is not very good right now. I don't think they had anyone even make the state tournament last year.
Not sure the issue but the athletes are there or Mitchell football wouldn’t be having the success it is.
