Re: Wrestling 2017-18

I have a question that maybe some of you can help me with.

I've been looking at this thread, and Hawaii Sportsworld, and Scoringlive.

Here's my question: Do Iolani, Punahou, Damien and Pac5 have wrestling teams this year?

Re: Football Concussions - read this

OK Moms, Dads, Coaches, School Administrators, Trainers, etc. CTE is due to repeated hits. Not just concussions. Concussion "protocol" is helpful and should obviously be observed, but the bigger problem are the repeated hits. Concussion protocol is not stopping CTE. Stopping practice, game...

Re: Wrestling 2017-18

Looks like the schools and leagues are doing an EXCELLENT job of killing wrestling. When is States this year? Wendesday and Thursday?? How many days of matches are there in the regular season? How many different venues? Moving States to the middle of the week is a new little act of wrestling genocid...

Re: Wrestling 2017-18

...and Moanalua had a LOT of wrestlers who weren't even on the mats because of a hydration test that sidelined a bunch of kids. @MercadoCBIT: Why do Moanalua wrestlers call themselves the "Camogas"? They've been doing that for over 35 years. Isn't the school's nickname, "Na Menehune&...

Re: Wrestling 2017-18

Cant believe you guys aren't complaining about the dates for states this year. Especially because there's nothing on the Baisdell calendar/Schedule for the weekend of that week. http://www.blaisdellcenter.com/calendar-of-events/action:month/exact_date:1517479200/ Although, the weekend before, there...

Re: HHSAA Judo 2017

Predictions? REALLY bad officiating on at least 4 of the 6 mats being run. Maybe more, maybe less depending on how the refs are grouped. Wusstig brothers should walk away with state championships. Jason Pagurayan will demonstrate, once again, how BIG his heart is. The rest of it will come down to w...

Re: Iolani playing D2 again

Division, shmivision.

"Division" does not matter to Iolani.

I can personally attest to that.

Every Iolani "Football State Champions" t-shirt I have ever seen never mentions division.

Re: Wrestling 2016 *wrestling and speculation - (no more bitching & moaning)

Misake resigns as Campbell head coach. Coach Santos takes over top position. Happened on Monday. Is this confirmed? I wonder what the reason would be for a resignation? Amosa fired in football, Misaki in wrestling. Counting chickens that never appear, sitting at the edge of the water thirsty as hel...

Re: Wrestling 2016 *wrestling and speculation - (no more bitching & moaning)

One last thought. I tried thinking about being at the HHSAA Chevron Tournament at sometime in the future, sitting next to or near someone who was booing a kid in the same situation as that Beggs kid. First, I don't think that would happen at our State Tournament, if the situation arose. Whatever peo...

Re: Wrestling 2016 *wrestling and speculation - (no more bitching & moaning)

The problem/concern here is, I'm not sure what the argument is about. Unfair advantage? Equality? Leveling the playing field? The sanctity of gender? Disagreement/opposition/disgust(?) with transgender(s)? Drugs/enhancements? RELIGION, perhaps? One of the undercurrents in all the stories I read and ...

Re: Wrestling 2016 *wrestling and speculation - (no more bitching & moaning)

I have no problem with having to wrestle what's shown on your birth certificate. My issue would be with the testosterone treatment. Now I'm no expert on the subject, but I assume the testosterone gives the wrestler an advantage. If it does not, than I don't see a problem. If testosterone does give ...
