Everyone keeps talking about the cost of the trips being the reason it is hard to fill the Nationals teams. I think there is another big reason that no one has mentioned and that is the 16 teams from Indiana that is going to the Disney Duals at the same time Team Indiana is trying to get a team to go to the Junior Duals. You take 224 wrestlers, that includes some alternates, out of the available pool and you are going to have a problem getting wrestlers. When your high school coach asks you to wrestle on his Disney Duals team are you going to tell him "no", I'm going to wrestle for Team Indiana in the Junior Duals? I don't think so. So until that problem gets worked out we will continue to have problems with the Junior Duals team. I want to thank all the volunteer coaches who take the time to go with the wrestlers to the Nationals. Paying for their trip is the least the ISWA can do.
