Watched the championship rounds of the Platte City Tournament. A very good tournament. Only 12 teams. Wrestled 2 X 6 team pools with top 2 from each pool advancing to the championship rounds. Also wrestled for 5th and 7th places. Some very good Missouri teams, plus Omaha Skut. Oak Grove and Kirksville MO very impressive. Several champ matches with multiple state champs meeting, plus several placer VS placer matches. Also severl undefeated wrestlers. East Kansas teams should go-cross border and wrestle some of those Missouri teams and tournaments. Would probably see some new things hadn't seen before. Different style of refs. Really quick on back points--many looked like roll thrus--plus a little quicker than Kansas ref with the stall and backing up calls. SJA looked awfully good and will certainly contend for the 4A State title.
Ref an earlier poster: Loges and Gilmon from Skut are the real deal!!
