Brackets with 4 or less wreslters/Total number of brackets

35% of the brackets had 4 or less competitors this year as compared to 43% in 2011 even though we had 9 fewer wrestlers.

Only 7% of the brackets had more than 16 wrestlers when you combine both subs.

A high school state champion won 17-2 in the 14U finals match. Was that a waste of time?

What does his team mate think? Was he appreciative of the challenge or feel he was shown up? After all it was his own teammate he beat in the finals. I watched several top 3-4 high school state placers in their respective classes come back to 14 under not to win in fact losing to 8th graders. It is no guarantee that a freshman placer will win 14 under. I even watched high school qualifiers not qualify for kids state. Only that kid and his coach& team can answer that question,Chief.

NO!!!
