Discussion Topic: Girls Sub-Regional (sectionals)
Brian Nicola added to this discussion on December 31, 2023
This past week, OHSAA and Dustin Ware, working with OHSWCA leadership, finalized four sub-regional (sectionals) into a regional model for the girls postseason. With girls numbers well over 2,000 and OHSAA set on a one-day model for regionals, this is a necessary step to keep girls regionals to 16. While the sectionals will probably be small the first couple years, this is the model. They will take place on a Friday or Sunday.
4 subregions --> NE Mentor
4 subregions --> NW Marysville
4 subregions --> C/SE Orange
4 subregions --> SW Harrison
Additionally, the regions will likely be slightly redrawn to balance the huge growth in the NE, but that will be finalized by OHSAA. I'll share anything as I get it. Post or reach out with questions.

Brian, I have to claim ignorance on this, I was watching some of the Women's Midlands matches and they were freestyle scoring and not folkstyle. Is that the way it is in girl's high school matches?

I really wish this was the case (NY girls wrestle only FS) but it's not. Folksytle for OH girls.

I agree with you 100% but I have to wonder if there are anywhere close to enough FS officials in Ohio to handle it? Going FS at the start would have been the smart move. Downstream would be much harder to make a change.
Just a personal opinion but I doubt the OHSAA would want to give up control, or the money, of girls wrestling. It is growing so fast that they see dollar signs.
