MatStats does its second annual assessment of HS wrestling numbers.  We analyze the participation numbers and growth of wrestling.  Part 1 deals with the National Federation of High School (NFHS) participation numbers over the years.  Part 2 analyzes the state survey and questionnaire that the NWCA sent to all 50 states.  A play on the Beach Boys famous song, MatStats is true to our schools' numbers and provides in depth analysis.

About Mat Stats
Welcome to the NWCA’s latest venture to help our favorite sport. Glenn Gormley, Jason Bryant and Kevin Hazard outline their effort to bring statistical analysis to wrestling. Mat Stats is the NWCA’s attempt to bring wrestling up to speed with so many other sports by incorporating stats. It is the same sport, the wrestlers are just older and better.
