I am going to have to agree with Coach Snyder for the most part...
Positives:
Tournament Classed
New teams
Purposed to build revenue
Negatives:
NO TEAM STATE DUAL MEET CHAMPION...
Coach, Peck well thought out and great proposal. I am excited to see some coaches making a move to salvage team state (regardless of form) and most importantly advance the name of wrestling. However, no true team state champion makes this nothing more than a glorified dual meet. Honestly, based on the consistent difficulty of Bellmont Duals if they just invited EMD and Cathedral we could just go ahead and crown a champion there.
A classed tournament is a great idea because it would bring in different teams from all around the state and after each pool is completed the winners could compete in a dual (triple or quadruple) depending on the amount of pools and crown a true champion. Also, I appreciate Coach Snyder's interest in salvaging the team tournament and his passion for the sport. Any coach willing to fight this hard for team state will without question back up and push his wrestlers under any circumstance.
Regardless, of the final outcome thank you both for your contribution to the sport.
