Greg, look at the tournaments with the high numbers, the truth is, many people will complain about any given tournament from year to year. The truth of the matter though, is those tournaments that are drawing big numbers from year to year are doing somethign correctly. Good luck in the future, a good crew of volunteers, prebracketing, a good quality officiating crew and others are big, I also think most folks prefer split tournaments as it allows parents and some wrestlers to get in and out with less time at the tournament. Also check your pm, I will give you my thoughts on another subject or two privately.
