The amount of press wrestling receives in Maine printed and on-line press can improve. There are major papers read by most Mainers that do little justice to covering the oldest sport. Maybe an article or two are published but there are local news outlets like those in Ellsworth and MDI that cover the local teams in a respectful way and give color to the dedication and hard work these young student athletes deserve. So please, we want to gather some data to offer the major news outlets to vastly improve the coverage and understanding of our sport. Thank you for your support

These kids work so hard all season and dont get half the credit the basketball teams get. Time for the papers to start paying attention to the mats.

this sport is one of the tough and most demanding. It may be boring to watch at times, but the tales and people who keep the sport alive are some of the most inspirational people I know
