One difficulty with this proposal is that 321A currently has about 96 schools/teams. Splitting to eight subs would put 11 or 12 teams in each sub. The problem: how place 11 or 12 wrestlers into an eight man bracket: pig tail everything over 8, do either 4 or 6 team pools and advance the top how many without violating the 5 match rule. How to bracket or pool might not be a big problem--think you will see a lot of short and very short rosters that will off set those extra 3 or 4 team (9 through 11 or 12). Must be a workable solution, 321A curently brackets 23 or 24 teams into a 16 bracket tournament.
