Looks like Gracy may have a first round consolation match with Bishop Carroll. Understand the Wichita Arch Diocese doesn't have the same rules, but would you forfeit out of the state tournament over this ruling by the Arch Bishop?
Also an interesting stroke of fate that Gracy got drawn into the lower bracket. Had she been in the upper bracket one of the wrestlers from STA or SJA would have faced a very difficult decision of forfeiting away a chance at state.
It is my understanding that the Aquinas, Bishop Miege and St. James wrestlers do not have any decision at all to make if they are scheduled to wrestle a girl in a match. The coaches from those schools are not allowed by the Bishop of the Archdiocese of Kansas City Kansas to permit their wrestlers to wrestle the match so they would have to forfeit the match.
