Was looking through Track Wrestling earlier and noticed you could watch video from the Dodge City regional but not from any other regionals. Now I think that regional was tough enough without KSHSAA allowing everyone else scout the tape. Is this fair? I thought there were video taping rules? Oh wait, I forgot. It's KSHSAA, they make their own rules. Carry on.

With today's technology, it is impossible to enforce any kind of video rule.

They took them down!

I know its impossible to enforce a video rule Chad, thats not the point. The point is that KSHSAA with their infinite wisdom would allow something as idiotic as this to happen. And the fact that they were removed proves this point. But why does your remark NOT surprise me.

Looks like KSHSAA should rewrite some rules!!

Most sports share video tape of their games, why can't we do this in wrestling? Football coaches exchange film on Saturday's after the Friday night game and basketball coaches have film on other teams. Now with services like Hudl you can exchange over the internet. Why would wrestling be so against this? Seems fine to me.

KSHSAA Rules on Videotaping

1.M Filming or Videotaping Matches
Video recording is authorized by NFHS rules. Coaches, fans, managers, etc. may not show athletes video recording during
live competition on the mat. Viewing is permitted during injury/blood time and at the conclusion of the match for the purpose
of education. No school can videotape a match that does not involve one of their wrestlers. The only exception would
be the state championship finals.
