Promotion is the whole point, what is the best way to promote the sport? Media, newspaper mainly. It is better for promotion when the Colby Free Press writes a preview of the Norton Colby dual that features 6 matchups of ranked wrestlers vs 4 matchups of ranked wrestlers. It is better to promote the regionals in the paper when you can say there are 28 ranked wrestling competing vs. 21 on average.
I'm not all that concerned about rankings but this subject does concern me that for so many this can become a goal and then one's true potential is never achieved. If we focused on getting better instead of who has the highest ranking then everything else takes care of itself. If we want to promote wrestling in KS then get involved with your local team and support them within your community. I know our team can always use more volunteers:)
