Geez guys...why the animosity? It's still two months away. I'm pretty sure they'll get most teams into a regional. Come on Gary, you know you would like to know. It's usually done by now.

With the over 600k it was reported in the KSHSAA bank account they might have to start helping the schools host these tournaments. If budgets will not allows schools to do on their own.
Just a thought, because from what I am hearing not many schools are raising their hands to host.

back in the day. . .basketball assignments are not done by Mr. Bowden; they are handled by the person who does volleyball in the fall. As you may know vb is over several weeks before the end of football playoffs. Apples and Oranges.
Will--again, what do the football playoffs have to do with schools saying no to hosting regional wrestling tournaments due to expense as the result of BUDGET CUTS ANNOUNCED AFTER the playoffs were concluded? Not all schools are involved in the football playoffs; in fact only 1/4 are after the first play off game, 1/8 after the next game, etc. Only four per class are involved after the buffer week. A VERY STRONG PROBABILITY that many schools who said "no" were NOT involved in the football playoffs, or if they were, for not very long. Greg, Not speaking about the financial impact but from the available time to invest. Rick would have had another week to work wrestling regionals if the football playoffs wouldn't have been expanded. 50% of the teams ARE involved in the first round of playoffs. It costs more money to have another round of playoffs, don't lie. Schools are willing to spend more on the big two Football and Hoops but not on other sports. They will even move funds around to make it look like football isn't costing as much as it does. Football costs more than ANY other sport and leads the pack in serious injuries as well. I like football but when we start talking about cuts and funding it is time to expose it for what it fiscally is.

My guess is the 5A and 6A are not the problem. It is likely easier to find schools willing to host those since they only last one day. The problem is more likely in the smaller schools where two days are required.

You could always expand the 5 match limit for regionals.

I doubt that Wichita schools will have the ability to host 6a, They cant even give their teachers and staff raises let alone put money into wrestling.

Contrary to what is being said on here, KSHSAA has all of the 4A regionals done. That is what we were told today.
"Josh
THANKS for offering the use of your facilities and staff/wrestling community. We have the four 4A sites identified and am working toward finalizing the other three class sites.

A little birdie told me NW is hosting a regional as is Manhattan. No confirmation yet, but pretty good source.

Drop the 5 match rule and make the 4A regionals one day events! That would save money.

I mentioned that yesterday! Great minds think a like!
maybe an exception for regionals would be a cost savings - one day- AND a little hole in that silly rule.

It's been said a lot but still amazes me that our kids can wrestle live in practice for an hour or more a day, 6 days a week and are not allowed to wrestle 36 minutes spread out over 8 hours in a tournament.

YOu guys continue to waste your breath trying to find a reason for another of KSHSAA's stupid rules. Most of the time there is no rhyme nor reason...........
Cue up sportsfan's entertaining response................
