The Hays Wrestling Club will be hosting its annual Western Kansas Classic Wrestling tournament on March 5, 2016 this year. This tournament will be wrestled once again at Gross Memorial Coliseum on the campus of Fort Hays State University.

We will be bracketing according to wrestlers rankings. (A, B, C, D) we will not have a separate tournament for Novice but will bracket beginners with other wrestlers of the same caliber if numbers in that age and weight allow. The same awards will be given to all top 4 placers in each Bracket. This is a unique chance for some beginner wrestlers to earn a nice plaque and wrestle in the same tournament the advanced wrestlers.

We will be looking for satellite weigh in sights again this year for Friday only weigh ins. If your club would be interested in a satellite site please email.hayswrestlingclub@yahoo.com

More information about the tournament will be added later.

Thanks,
Lance Geyer

Doesn't look like this is on track wrestling yet. I'm glad to see this post. We are coming from Lawrence this year. Looking forward to it.

Are you giving .9 weight allowance this year?

Due to multiple satellite weigh in sites, and not all scales being exactly the same. We will be allowing .9. Example if your wrestler is wrestling 55lbs they can weigh up to 55.9.

Just a reminder that the following week after our tournament is the start of qualifiers and wrestlers are required to make scratch weight at qualifiers.
