Great to see a number of different ideas and viewpoints on the topic. Exactly, the idea of having an open forum. Kudos to everyone who works to put this event together, cover the event, even those doing the rankings. Many teams and coaches want the opportunity to compete and show their worth. It is certainly unfortunate that some teams are left out. However; at some point much like the CFB national championships, everyone can argue 3rd vs 5th, a team someone beat got second, fourth, etc... But ultimately, I think most would agree the idea is to have a tournament to decide a State Champion in each class. We saw that....we have champions in each class, I highly doubt any team or coach could claim they could of wrestled three to four duals and ultimately un seated any of those four class champions. Those champions are deserving and the rest had their chance. This is such a quality day of wrestling, no one should have complaints. The programs who had the chance to compete should be proud and know everyone will compare their programs to each qualifier as well as the champions.
Congrats to the champions and each team victory as all victories have some value for each program. Good luck the remainder of the season to all... and some are already developing motivation for next season's tournament.
