Discussion Topic: Big Ten Network In OSU out Matside TV brings more H.S.
Cliff Cahill added to this discussion on February 17, 2008

With the coming in of the Big Ten Network came the going out of the Matside TV coverage of Ohio State this year after 19 years of showing all the home OSU matches and more. Good for some. Not good for others.
Damn shame the history of this great buckeye year is lost but it was a choice by the university.

What it did in return was bring more Matside TV coverage of high school wrestling to Columbus, Dayton, and Cleveland. Many H.S. fans wanted this all along and for them they should be happy. Matside presented this year:

Medina
Brecksville - Channel 9 production
Ironman - Channel 9 production
Ohio Duals Div II - 3 shows
Top Gun
Josh Hephner - Channel 19 productions
and soon will bring
Central District Finals
States - 4 shows
Senior Nationals at Virginia Beach - 3 shows

The history of these great high school events are available;

We would like to thank Jeff Cole of Channel 9 and Lynn Guessher of Channel 19 for sharing their community TV productions as we did ours to them. You must contact them directly for archives of their productions.

We could not do any of this if not for the support of each of the tournament directors who provided all the accommodations we needed to film the events. Thanks to each.

We would like to hear from you via our web site feedback link - Contact.
