I am a newbie fan-- not a coach, former wrestler or wrestler's parent. So please forgive me if this is a dumb question.
I followed 2 sectionals online & printed the brackets when released on Friday. Before action started up Saturday morning, 19 of 28 brackets in those 2 sectionals changed due to forfeits/replacements. In general, why so many? Illness, practice injuries, overweights? All of the above? It seems like wrestlers & coaches fight so hard all year to be in that Sectional lineup whether your individual record is 40-0 or 4-20.
