Is it really the wrestlers that want to see this? My son will have wrestled more than 40 times this year, and he is ready for it to be over. Right now he is 30 and 4, ranked in 3A, and is ready to eat again! Counting regionals and state, he has 3 more tourney's this year.
He is beat up, tired and sore to the bone. He has told me this year he does not want to go on to kids state. I'm not pushing him in either direction. If the kids want to strut their stuff, let them. Don't try and force these kids into doing something YOU want them to do. Remember, you're not the one that has wrestled all season after tearing up your knee in football. They can make up their own minds.
