I was talking about the wins he had not necessary the placement. Region titles in my opinion should be mentioned. At least we have three regional titles in wrestling for a program that hasn't been around long. Placing in the top 10 in the state is still something that shows that this program has come a long way in the five years it has been new to Letcher Co. Wrestling is a great way to help all sports as well as establish a great program to compete in. Answer me this! How many football coaches or anyone directed with football is part of the coaching or conditioning staff in wrestling in all the eastern Ky teams? I know Johnson Central is, and that is 4 extra months of legal conditioning that he has with his players. They may be wrestling, but he is still coaching, and making them condition, and that is why they are getting better and better.

Johnson Central isn't really thinking of football during wrestling season though. Matney has coached one of the best wrestling teams in the country. He has produced team and many individual state champions. SC's coach is also an assistant football coach. I do agree that wrestling helps with football though. However you have three individual regional titles. You have not won regions as a team though. Winning region is great but there aren't many people out there putting up banners for idividual regional wrestling champs. However it is a great start.
