The Louisiana High School Wrestling Archives website is dedicated to providing an all-encompassing history of Louisiana high school wrestling.  Coach Bill Bofinger's (Lee High) book Ready....Wrestle already provides all one could want to know about the state wrestling tournament in Louisiana.  The LHSWA would like to accentuate that with results from other tournaments, dual meets, high school histories and wrestling histories of individual wrestlers, coaches and others who have had an impact on Louisiana high school wrestling.

Serving Louisiana wrestling from 2012 to 2024
 
The Louisiana Wrestling News, provided event-specific coverage of selected high school wrestling tournaments and dual meets, throughout the high school wrestling season, for 12 years.   When possible it publishes other information the editor deems important enough to share regarding Louisiana high school wrestling.  Medical reasons prevent the editor from covering as much as he would like, as well as photographic coverage

 

NOTE: Due to the vast increase in the amount of dual meets in the last few years the LHSWA will no longer publish their results.  Some dual meet tournament results may be scanned and published.

Coach Bill Bofinger of Baton Rouge has compiled and published a comprehensive history of  Louisiana high school state wrestling tournaments, starting with the first tournament held at the New Orleans Athletic Club in 1945, and currently updated as far as the 2018 state tournament.  The book not only provides lists of team scores, state champions, Runners-Up and final match scores, but also includes narratives for each year, profiles of prominent figures in Louisiana high school wrestling history and tables of state championship statistics.  Ready....Wrestle is a "must" for anyone who participated in a Louisiana state wrestling tournament.

To order Ready....Wrestle, contact coach Bill Bofinger at:

2031 Wisteria Street, Baton Rouge, Louisiana 70806

or email Coach Bofinger at billbofinger@gmail.com to arrange other accommodations.
