MichiganMan 3 Report post Posted February 4, 2016 I was wondering what formula is being used? My son was region champ and has to wrestle the other region champ the first match, while the kid he pinned at region gets a bye first round. Explanation ?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eagle7071 2 Report post Posted February 4, 2016 I think that it is randomly done, but not positive on that. I think they just try to make sure that the kids from the same region don't wrestle in the first round if possible. 11 hours ago, Jrodc said: go to trackwrestling.com and search for the event Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bluesdad 73 Report post Posted February 4, 2016 There's no way the youth state tournament is randomly drawn. Just look at my sons middle school bracket then look at his youth bracket lol. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MichiganMan 3 Report post Posted February 4, 2016 I know it . My son who was region champ has to wrestle the champ from union first round just to get to the next round ,if he wins, to wrestle the kid he has pinned a couple times who has a bye the first round. What was the point of regionals? I smell favoritism! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MichiganMan 3 Report post Posted February 4, 2016 If there is no criteria and it's random , at the least has wrestle back to true 2nd Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jbrown1405 11 Report post Posted February 4, 2016 It is random draw for younger kids. The older ones like Blue people know who they are and try to separate them some but aren't seeded. If they were trying to show favoritism they didn't do very well since there kid is on the same side of the bracket as your kid. True 2nd might not be a bad option. I see it used as World of Wrestling events and Tennessee state uses it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bluesdad 73 Report post Posted February 4, 2016 Not sure if the favoritism thing was thrown toward me or not. I didn't say favoritism was shown or anything was wrong with the way the tournament was seeded but i do like the true 2nd place idea. Blue will wrestle anyone in front of him it doesn't matter. Win or lose Blue shows up to wrestle whoever is across from him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MichiganMan 3 Report post Posted February 4, 2016 Not towards you at all lol you right tho , no dodging and wrestle who ever is in front of you. He will live with it . Just weird I have wrestled all over the country since I could walk and since moving here , there are no weight classes and everyone at region qualifies for state and no criteria on bracket placements . Guess I gotta get used to it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guess I gotta get used to it For middle school wrestling, you have district and regional qualifiers to get to the state tournament, and there is a seeding process for the state bracket. Younger kids (4th-8th grades I think are eligible for MS) that want that level of competition have that avenue to wrestle. Youth is more about getting younger and less experienced kids interested and excited about wrestling in Kentucky. Hence, Kentucky youth state tournament doesn't have a qualifier or seeding for the bracket. We just changed last year from an 8 man to a 16 man bracket which was a great move to make it a little tougher and more interesting, but at the end of the day youth is about exposure to the sport.

MichiganMan 3 Report post Posted February 4, 2016 I agree to an extent. Novice and local tournaments are usually for youth exposure, Not Usually the complaining type just was a little frustrated when brackets posted and didn't know it was random. Wrestling culture shock I guess. All good now , looking forward to this weekend!! Good luck to everyone at states! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
