WEIGHT CERTIFICATIONS:  The weight certification process is over for another year.  It seems, however, that all of the CIF Sections are not certifying their wrestlers in the same manner which might lead to some validity issues.
 
In the Central Coast Section our section is divided into four areas with four lead assessors.  The entire process is under the direction of Duane Morgan, Assistant Commissioner of the Central Coast Section.  Each Lead Assessor has a team of 4-7 assessors who are rotated at various assessment sites.  In the largest enrollment area, in which I am the lead assessor, we use TWO Tanita Scales, we have one trainer handling the refractometer, testing for hydration, we have one assessor doing the height, and we have one trainer collecting the fees and supervision the restroom at ALL times.  The restroom supervision is critical.  A few things that we do to properly supervise the restrooms are; 1) food coloring is placed in the toilets and all athletes are reminded NOT to flush the toilets; 2) female wrestlers are tested first and once they have completed their testing and left the locker room we secure the toilet stall doors and the male athletes use the urinals.  3) the male wrestlers use only the urinals and do not flush them.  One urinal is used for dumping the urine after the hydration test.  Again, I stress that this entire process is supervised closely and only five wrestlers are allowed in the restroom at one time.

(All of our assessment sites have at least six urinals).  Following the hydration testing the assessor whochecks the height of the athlete must insist that the athlete has his/her feet together, heels against the wall and knees locked.  The assessor also makes sure that the wrestler does not slouch or bend his/her knees.  Athletes are given the choice of wearing a wrestling singlet or a pair of shorts and T-shirt.  An athlete wearing only underwear is not allowed since we use women assessors at all of our assessments.  This is necessary for supervising the girl wrestlers during the hydration phase.  We do not use any trainers from the schools participating in the assessment.  I have found that this weight certification process is valid.
 
We also have a meeting with all league coaches two weeks prior to the start of the weight certification process and remind them of the proper clothing the athlete should wear, to make a reservation for testing, and to have the names of the wrestlers on the IPF forms to be neat and legible.  This past year we had four large certifications on Saturdays and one of our largest certifications take place the Wednesday afternoon before Thanksgiving.  This is a "walk-in" session open to wrestlers from any school.  In addition we had six evening certifications.  All weight certifications, with the schools participating is maintained on the CCS Section website.  The entire master certification schedule is posted.
 
STATE CIF TOURNAMENT:  The California State CIF Wrestling Tournament will be held in Bakersfield on the weekend of March 5-6.  In an earlier article I predicted that Clovis will win the State Championship and I stick with that prediction.  Others to watch include Buchanan,
Clovis West, Poway, with an outside chance of Gilroy and Selma being in the top five.
 
This year we return a large number of state placers and we have a lot of young wrestlers who could be "spoilers" and upset some of these returning place winners.  I look for an intense competition at this years' state tournament but again, I think Clovis has the returning talent to win the championship.
 
CALIFORNIA USA WRESTLING:  It appears that California USA Wrestling has a selected a site in Tulare to build it's wrestling facility.  According to Duane Morgan, President of CUSAW they have received financial grants, enough to purchase the property and start planning the facility.  If you would like to make a donation or purchase a brick contact California USA Wrestling.  CUSAW needs and appreciates your support.

 
CALIFORNIA WRESTLING HALL OF FAME:  The 2010 California Wrestling Hall of Fame Induction Banquet will be held in Sacramento on Saturday, May 15, 2010.  Those individuals selected for induction or to receive the Lifetime Service Award will be announced on January 15, 2010.

REASONS TO SAVE WRESTLING AT MOORPARK COLLEGE


Oldest sport in the history of civilization.
A true amateur sport – The sport is final after the completion of college.
Longest running sport in the 41 year history of Moorpark College – started when the college opened in 1967.
The program has won 5 CCCAA State titles and 27 conference championships – the most successful sport in the history of Moorpark College.
This is the only community college program from Cuesta College (San Luis Obispo) to East Los Angeles College – over 200 radius miles. We need to service our students. Every high school in our district and contiguous districts offer the sport of wrestling. We will not be servicing the students in our district.
A highly diverse sport across the spectrum. The diversity also includes body size. The sport allows all sizes to compete.
The sport is the third highest participatory sport at the high school level in the nation.
The Moorpark College program has always stressed education first and the sport second. High graduation and transfer rate.
Moorpark College wrestling alumni – there are hundreds and hundreds of success stories over the 41 year history – Doctors; Attorneys; Professors; Educators; Coaches; and Businessmen.
This is a very inexpensive sport when you compare it to the value it has brought to this county and community - changing character, behavior and life for the good.
There are 25 wrestlers already registered and ready to start college and practice on Monday, August 17th – what do you tell these young men?
