Well despite no response i'm going to take this time to break down both the Newton and Bobcat Classic to show you how the Bobcat Classic is easily comparible, and an easy case could be made to say it's in fact tougher. So here we go:
Teams:
Bobcat=14 top 10 ranked teams: 3 From 6A, 4 from 5A, 5 from 4A, 1 from 321A and 1 from Iowa class 2A.
Newton=10 top 10 ranked teams: 4 from 6A, 4 from 5A, 1 from 4A 0 from 321A and 1 from Oklahoma class 2A.
Individual Wrestling From the Dec. 17th 2004 rankings (however does not include either Iowa or Oklahomas ranked wrestlers):
Bobcat= 73 ranked wrestlers:
103=4
112=3
119=4
125=7
130=4
135=3
140=7
145=4
152=7
160=6
171=8
189=8
215=4
275=4
Newton= 69 ranked wrestlers
103=4
112=5
119=6
125=4
130=5
135=7
140=5
145=5
152=1
160=6
171=3
189=3
215=9
275=6
There you are Mr. Church based on that information alone, you can argue that with the Bobcat Classic having four more top 10 ranked teams, and 4 more ranked kids it is definetly equally as tough and arguably even tougher than Newton. But if you have something that you would like to counter that with please go ahead i'd like to hear your opinion. This is not meant to disrespect you Mr. Church, I'm just putting out facts to back my claims, and would like to hear your opinion on it as well.
