I have a subscription for our local paper which I like  and I realized I haven't seen a wrestling result posted  or an article concerning wrestling this year.  I was frustrated by that.   I was just curious on how wrestling gets covered around the state, so I decided to do a poll.

Our local newspapers are spread so thin with reporters it's terrible.  Their deadlines for getting info in is like 8 or 9 pm. If I don't send anything in, it does not get covered unless it is our conference duals, tournaments, or some other big event. Boy's and girl's basketball, NBA, other pro sports,  and even hs swimming, gets 95% of the coverage. We have had 3 home matches this year and not a single article, and our program has been one of the top winter programs in the area amongst all winter sports for 4-5 years. Not much we can do other than keep sending info, results, and stats in.
