Coach Duncan Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 This will be an individual tournament with wrestlers currently in grades 7-12 competing in one division. So incoming seniors could possibly compete against an incoming 7th grader? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y2CJ41 Posted August 20, 2010 Author Share Posted August 20, 2010 Yes it could happen if the kid wants to challenge himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebels8 Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 is that all the wrestlers participating in the tournament that are listed under the registration. if so i really thought there would be alot bigger turnout. still debating on if we r coming down from indy but hoping will be more participants. if u could let me know if this is the full list or post a list of all participants would appreciate it.

Boot Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 There are a lot fewer seniors and state qualifiers than I had expected, are there conflicts that week with other sports, or do coaches not want their kids in it, or some other bizarre reason for not taking advantage of this great opportunity?

IMAWRESTLER Posted September 4, 2010 Share Posted September 4, 2010 I would think having on a saturday is the problem football and other sport conflicts. Sunday would have been the better choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y2CJ41 Posted September 4, 2010 Author Share Posted September 4, 2010 No matter the day you pick, you will have people with conflicts. If we do it on a Sunday, there would be many out of state wrestlers that do not make the trip due to school on Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The really cool thing is that there are wrestlers from at least 8 different states that are registered for the tournament. Hopefully we will get alot of last minute registrations.

Y2CJ41 Posted September 4, 2010 Author Share Posted September 4, 2010 There will be more registering. I know there will be a group from Massa's Maniacs and from Lowell, Michigan signing up from Michigan and another group of 12-15 from Oregon Clay, Ohio. Most people don't sign up until the last minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a surprise, people waiting until the last minute to do something. maybe waiting to choose a weight until they see who their competition is?

cewrestlingfan Posted September 9, 2010 Share Posted September 9, 2010 It looks like the overall participation is pretty good. A couple of really tough and interesting weight classes. Looks like the seeding is already complete. Will the brackets be done soon or after weigh in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y2CJ41 Posted September 9, 2010 Author Share Posted September 9, 2010 The numbers are great, especially since we were at about 70 a week ago. There are nine states represented, which is awesome. The seeding is as much as I could do until weigh-ins are complete, but won't be final until tomorrow night. I wanted to get some of it done ahead of time, so I had less work to do Friday night. The official seeding won't be done until everyone weighs in and shows up. I tried being as impartial as I could be considering most kids did not submit seeding data and it is hard to separate kids based off results from different states. There are definitely some tough weight classes, especially the lower ones. I am excited to see some of the matches already! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
