If Joyce got Morosetti to transfer to Pono in the middle of the season,everyone would be going crazy but Serge can get Turillo from NK and nobody says anything. There must be a lot of people on this forum drinking the mayo quanchi juice.

Serge is a legend and he coaches those kids year round, maybe familiarity attracts.

If Hendricken openly came out and did this, everyone would be hating on the private schools…when in reality they are the only schools that should be allowed mid season transfers. It’s a private school! Parents are paying to send their kids there! Scituate is not. Pono is not. Why the double standard for club coaches?

Some people just think they are getting more out of paying someone to coach their kids. Maybe they do/maybe they don’t. Most high school coaches put a lot of effort in but have other jobs. He doesn’t. It is his job.

First I want to say I am not a member of Mayo Quanchi. I have been there, I’m not gonna say I haven’t been to some practices there but my club team was iron faith. Serge had nothing to do with me leaving north Kingstown or going to Scituate. I left North Kingstown for reasons I’m not going to discuss at this time. I do live in Scituate Rhode Island. I will say that one of the coaches was suspended and that’s all I’m gonna say. At the end of the day I am a highschool student who just wants to wrestle. Don’t bring Serge or Mayo Quanchi into this when it had nothing to do with them at all.

Hey folks, the purpose of this forum is not to criticize for the sake of criticism, and certainly not to criticize a high school student doing what he and his family believe is best for him. Yes, the rich seem to keep getting richer. That's the same criticism that BH and LS were getting a few years ago. This is wrestling. If you want to do better then coach better, work harder, go find better competition. We can't all be state/New England champions but we can try to be the best we can be at what we do. Wrestling is probably the purest expression of that noble endeavor. As for Serge I believe he does have Moderator status which he seldom if ever exercises. His infrequent contributions to this forum have always be informative and respectful. Please try to do the same. Thank you!

Atlanta Al While I agree with you for the most part, there are some things I do disagree with. This is the same old argument from before. The difference is that those schools are paid for privately with out tax payer money. Public schools are paid for by the tax payers. So if an athlete and his family lies about an address change to wrestle for the coach of their choice, the taxpayers of that specific town are being taken advantage of. This goes for all sports, not just wrestling. There is one standard that is true whoever you wrestler for, which ever coach is your coach, and that is the time put in and effort given. If you don’t want to seek out the best competition you will never succeed in this sport. Some kids look for it, others try to run when competition gets tough. The best wrestlers in RI and New England are traveling to find the best of the best. That’s the way to do it.

People do understand that students don’t have to live in the town they wrestle for, right? This is the advantage that schools with larger CTC programs have over schools with smaller programs, or no programs at all. If Pono, Coventry, or whoever offers programs that another students current school does not offer, then a student can choose to go to that school and play sports for that program.

Those programs must be entered into by sophomore year and cannot be entered into mid school year, it has to be prior to the start of school. So a senior leaving mid season is not entering any such program.

Mostly true as for CTE and transferring.
RIDE was in talks some time back about this. Truth is, if your homeschool offer “abc” CTE program and so does a school that you apply to, you are still able to apply (and possibly be accepted) to said school.
If there is a physical change of address during the school year, you have to sit out a certain number of days, but you can still participate. I’m not sure if the exact number of days, but I’m sure it can be found on RIIL.

132 is becoming a cluster with Ivan possibilty out for the year. Yesterday Downes from AIW pinned Reiner from SK at the Westerly Tournament.
These programs are suppose to be for academics not athletics. People are pushing the RIIL to keep allowing students to transfer for academic purposes but play athletics for their home district. So Apollo Bellini can go to Pono for academic purposes but needs to play athletics at Burrillville if Burrillville provides that athletic program.

All of the “academic” transfers will suddenly stop and everyone will be back to being mad at Hendricken. Transferring mid-season should be out of the question even with the claim of an address change.

The whining is over shadowing the work being out in by these kids. Stop crying about who is where and wrestle. Kids should be at school where they are thriving. End of argument. If you're unhappy and your kid is unhappy then find a way to be happy and stop trying to make other people unhappy. If your school system isn't giving your child what he or she needs to happy and successful then change your situation leave everyone else alone. It's really not that hard.

If your school system isn't giving your child what he or she needs to happy and successful then change your situation leave everyone else alone. It's really not that hard. Ahhhh yes. The age old, “just let people do what makes them happy” argument. Sure, no problem. Just don’t do it on the backs of people that actually live in that town. Also, join a prep school league because the teams that struggle to build anything because they don’t recruit and the kids on those teams are the ones losing out. But it’s ok, they just don’t work hard enough right? Right. What ponogansett has is no doubt incredible. But now Burrilville, a team that was once very strong, suffers annually with numbers being right next door. Coincidence? Do the coaches do any less to field a team and compete? Larger D1 schools don’t have an issue with numbers for the most part, but the state title becomes a battle for runner up or even 3rd place when you have super teams that are able to take anyone they want, and nobody cares what you say, that’s no fun for anyone. Kids will go wherever they think they can be on a winning team, ESPECIALLY if their home team is a place that isn’t doing so hot which will eternally make that team that isn’t doing so hot continue to be horrible. Leading to the loss of programs and the opportunity to wrestle everywhere.

What you're really saying is don't look for a better opportunity of you're not happy in your current situation. People cried when it was only BH, Lsa and MB doing it...now public schools can do it and we gotta listen to people cry about them now. Maybe improve what your home school district is doing? Or is that too hard? So we just whine about it? I'll just keep my head down and working hard. I'll leave the whining to you...let me know how that goes.

Don’t get it twisted. I don’t care where you go. If a wrestler is so cancerous to a team because they’d rather go somewhere else, then go. Nobody wants that garbage around. My point is that the league has made it too easy to recruit, while at the same time claiming to be against recruiting. Either allow it or don’t allow it. Don’t say “we do not allow and are against the act of recruiting students to your teams” then just refrain from doing anything about it. Because in the end it truly is hurting teams around the state. You keep your head down and keep working hard like you said you are. When you get good enough you can be recruited too, or if you’re a coach, one of your wrestlers can. Don’t worry, the league won’t do anything about it. It’s allowed, even though it isn’t. What you're really saying is don't look for a better opportunity of you're not happy in your current situation. People cried when it was only BH, Lsa and MB doing it...now public schools can do it and we gotta listen to people cry about them now. Maybe improve what your home school district is doing?

Results from Chad Antoch Memorial Tournament
Top 3 Teams 1. Coventry 2. Scituate 3. New London High School (CT)
RI Champs 106- Robert Newton (Scit) 113- Caden Hughes (Scit) 120- Stone Farnsworth (Cov) 126- Ben White (SK) 132- Cashman Downes (Middletown) 138- Sebastian Armstrong (Cov) 144- Eli Silverman (Cov) 150- Gabe Bouyssou (Scit) 157- Ryan Currier (Chariho) 165- Drake Dumont (Scit) 175- Logan Geas (Middletown) 190- Jack Giannetto (Naragansett) 285- Ason Jones (Cov)
Best finals - Robert newton Dec 4-3 over New London High school’s 106 OW- Stone Farnsworth
Things To Consider: -Central, NK, and Burrillville were a no show. - Scituate despite having an impressive showing falls to Coventry in the team race. - Coventry was missing some of their lineup (106 and 126)
Notable Head to Heads
113- Caden Hughes (Scit) Pins Ben Kirk (Cov) 126- Ben White (Sk) Dec 11-4 over Logan Martins (Johnston) 138- Sebastian Armstrong (Cov) Majors Aidan Baker (Scit) 157- Raymond Mconnell (Narragansett) Majors Noah Turillo (Scit) 157- Ryan Currier (Chariho) Techs Raymond Mconnell (Narragansett) 16-1 165- Drake Dumont (Scit) Dec 6-4 over Eli Leach (Westerly)
Overall a Great RI showing only giving up one weight class champ at 215
Other Thoughts - Leave transfer talk to another thread, this thread is for rankings and results not transfers and coaches.
- Any exciting duals or head to heads this week?
