Given that Kansas already hosts the Southern Plains FR/GR tournament in June and given that there was so much controversy surrounding the event this year re: non state sanctioned teams participating, despite the original understanding it was to be ALL state sanctioned teams and the original director of the tournament leaving half way through the lead up to the tourney etc etc.....Why doesn't Kansas seize this opportunity to go to USA wrestling and say we would also like to host this event, since we already have the other, and run it right ie garner more participation from the other southern plains states etc. Seems like a natural fit for our state to get a big regional tournament that has the added benefit of fixing the future iterations of an event that up to this point has been a bit of a debacle in each of its previous two years....just a thought
