I haven't been able to watch as much as I would have liked this year but I am going to be a homer and go with Naselroad from Alex to be on the podium this year at 145. I also think Gerencser from Daleville will be making an appearance at Bankers this year at 138. I love rooting for the small school kids. I also see Hardcastle from Oak Hill making a run as well as Dedman. 113 Romello Williams from Anderson has a great shot in this his Senior season. I really like Anthony (26) from Frankfort too. He is a great kid. Hopefully I am able to watch it this year.

I wouldn't score the pool wrestling just the tournament correct. Could coaches change the scoring wrestler after the pools were completed?
-
If they had multiple kids in the same weight class how did they do the team scoring?

I think we can run it fairly quick. We now have an auxiliary gym I am hoping to have 8 mats and each round take about an hour. 5 hours with a lunch break in the middle. Getting 5 matches in and out by 2 our 3 pm. Pools 1 and 2 in a Gym and 3 and 4 in a gym for 3 rounds. Last two rounds would be 1st and 5th place brackets in a gym and 9th and 12th place in another gym. Finding 8 officials would be the hard part.

Coming up with a good schedule to meet all the needs of my wrestlers has been a struggle. We have a gap of ability difference within our team. I have been thinking about hosting a 16 team Individual tournament that would allow each wrestler to have potentially 5 matches. We would allow JV's wrestlers in spots that did not have 16 spots taken. Example one team had a forfeit at 160 but team 2 had 2 160's we would plug the jv in the 160 spot with the forfeit. Each weight class would have 4 seeded pools seed 1,16, 8, and 9 would be pool 1. Seeds 2, 15, 7, and 10 would be pool 2. Seeds 3, 6,

I thought I would join the debate since they are so fun! I think everything you have stated is true. I think small schools are at a disadvantage I think larger schools have many things that benefit them over a small school. But, I think it is sooooo special when a kid from our size school makes it! What does it mean to go to state at Warren Central, Avon, Carmel ect.... not much, there have been several go! When a Courtney Duncan, or Luke Blanton go to State and even win a State title (even at 103) They are larger than life super stars. Our kids know every State Qualifier we'

It makes it so hard for our kids to start learning weight management when weight classes are different every meet and places don't have weigh ins. We use for our home meets 70, 75, 80, 85, 90, 95, 100, 106 through HWT are HS weights. But our County Meet is different weight classes. 70-145 by 5's 155, 180, 195, 215, and 275 for HWT. We use our conference tournament weight classes for home duals. I really like using the HS weight classes it just makes sense to me. We do the 2lb allowance like the HS season does too.
