OK, this seems to confirm that outside of the top 6, everyone else is randomly placed within the 6 spots of their region finish. So there is no rhyme or reason as to why a second place finisher is 7th or 12th. It's just their "placement" in the bracket.

Thanks for taking the time to clarify and respond. I don't want to over simplify but if you aren't a top 6 seed, placement is basically random unless you meet one of the other criteria it appears. I haven't seen many returning state placers/qualifiers that didn't win their region. A few, but not many. Just feels like true seeding could have actually been done following all of the criteria including winning percentage just like Track says is the way it will happen. I just always prefer objective rankings versus subjective rankings. Either way, you still just have to line up and beat the kid across from you.

Thanks for the feedback. I have just been getting a lot of questions from parents around seeding for kids who were not regional champs. I get that the top 6 goes to them. But then I see kids with mediocre records who have not met any of the other criteria ahead of kids with far better winning percentages which is actually listed as a seeding criteria in Track.

Anyone else having trouble determining how they came up with MS seeding? I looked under information in Track and that seeding criteria doesn't seem to match how wrestlers were actually seeded. I see kids with .67 winning percentages getting top 10 seeds when they met no other criteria. Anyone else struggling to see why their wrestlers got the seeding they did?

Why do some teams have only 8 scorers and others 16? Obviously that helps swing the needle a little bit.

I see in the eligibility section of the Youth State Flyer it says that a wrestler "Must wrestle in your youth regional tournament." Is this not truly a requirement but rather a preference as I know a few wrestlers who are participating in the Youth State Tournament who neither wrestled at their Youth Regional or at Middle School Regional? Thanks!
