You are absolutely correct. We came out of this weekend with plenty of ideas for improvements going forward. One of which was this really should've been a two day event for a multitude of reasons. The conversations I had with our new KHSAA leader led me to believe he is interested in learning our sport and he as well was looking for ways to better the event, I believe. And Ranger you were absolutely more help than a hindrance.

You are absolutely correct Chris, I screwed up on that end...but I think we bought all the food up in Georgetown in order to feed half the state

And I totally agree...

Ahh gotcha, hey didn't get a chance to shake Calebs hand after the boys wrestled, I had to go fix an issue...tell him I said good job.....see yall in Winchester, maybe we can find a good breakfast place....

So let me start by saying I agree with most of what you are saying but lets shed a little light on a couple of your statements. Were you aware there was 5 scratches that rollups had to be done for and and furthermore KHSAA wanted to control how those rollups were done. There was also a delay while waiting on KHSAA to make a decision on an issue with 215, so there is your 45 minutes. There was a decision made to scratch the parade in order to keep the tournament on track and not keep those wrestlers, their families and fans there any longer than needed since we knew it was going to be a long day, I don't remember anybody speaking up when asked if anybody had an issue with the decision, as a matter of fact I believe everybody was onboard. The last match was wrestled at 8:07 pm, 14 full 16 man brackets of competitive wrestlers, if I recall everyone seemed onboard to knock this out in one day vice two days but I could be wrong.

So I am curious of your opinion of the other tournament? Or are you echoing your dislike of us being stuck with this semi-state format?

Did I miss something at Semi-State #2 and more specifically I guess 150??

https://khsaa.org/2022-state-first-round-random-draw/ This is on the KHSAA site..takes some digging but you can fill in what the bracket looks like from this spreadsheet...

Appreciate it..

We were supposed to wrestle at our place yesterday but were informed last week by Conner that they were shutdown for 10 days for COVID so they conceded.

Yup, unfortunately we were out 4 starters and had nobody at 113 so we were really down 5 and still placed runner-up.

Beat Great Crossing?
