Anyone have these? Or does anyone have the books that were made that are titled something like "Ohio's best in Amatuer Wrestling"?

I wouldnt be surprised if Bitter could just run them all down out of some kind of crazy trick in which he has memorized the bracket for every OHSAA state tournament in history.

Bitter has that book, or you could travel down to the OHSAA headquarters near Clintonville I think and thumb through them.

I've done it. It's pretty sweet. There is a huge picture of Robert Sessley in the arms of his coach after winning the state title back in 96. Worth the visit right there.

Ah ha! That book is selling for $149 on Amazon.
This is the book I've always heard about. Kinda like how you hear about UFO's, Loch Ness and one of the Brands bro's smiling; you know they exist but you've never seen it.

I have been saying for a whie that I need to go to OHSAA headquarters and do some research. I just have to find some time. Do you need an appointment or can you just drop in and look things up?

Ksig...The way to do it is what Cruiser suggested. If you're looking fo records, or match-ups in the early rounds through the semis or scores of those bouts, the only way it to see the actual stuff. In this information age, I've never understood why it's not just all online in an archive somewhere, but I guess that would take man hours and that takes money.


The Big Book only gives you placers and scores of the finals matches (and all placement bouts), not the brackets. The new Big Book Vol. II (from 1998-2002) has the brackets, but the old book (Vol. I, 1938-1997) doesn't. If there's anything from the placement matches you need, I can look it up and post it for you.

Thanks Bitter...but I want to get all of our qualifiers and use it to get records as best as I can for those guys too.

I'll make the trip to the OHSAA in the spring.

As good as you are in getting brackets emailed to us in a timely manner, could you not email us all the results from the past years? I know you are very talented.
