Agree 4A is tough, especially to get through a regional. But 5A and 6A state are certainly the strongest. First look at the across the board competition. 5A and 6A wrestle and place in more and better tournaments. 5a and 6A wrestle more bigger schools. Don't know much about 321A; but 4A, with a few exceptions, also wrestles smaller schools and smaller tournaments.
Been lots of talk on combining 5A and 6A. Senseless!!! If combined, that would be the State tournament. No need for 321a or 4A State Tournaments. Could work around that and give the smaller guys a place by only taking the top three from each 5A/6A regional bracket and then filling the 4th spot with a 321A or 4A top top finisher. This is about as crazy an idea as combing 51 and 6A.
Note: Missouri added a wrestling class in 2005(?) and most think wrestling is better than ever.
I am going into my bunker and wait out the coming firestorm.
