Looks like a lot of really good wrestlers will not place. This should be a fun bracket to watch.
Top to bottom, I believe 16/140 is the toughest.
Isenberg - State Champion
Means - State Champion
Graham - State Champion
Arellano - State Placer - 27 wins
Eaton - State Placer - 30 wins
Malay - SQ - 20 wins
Mueller - SQ - 31-7
Winter - SQ - 25 wins
Peak - SQ - 26 wins
10/70lbs. is very tough.
When discussing topics like this one, some people seem to be blinded by only wrestlers that are around their son's or daughter's weight.
14u 125
3 state champs

12u 80lbs

But are these really kids? As the topic heading would suggest. This is a perfect example of why High schoolers have their place in this series. This bracket is as close to a "Grand State" that you will get. Will they have their A game? I would bet not. These guys tend to get a little soft after the regular season. But all being equal it should a great bracket to watch!
I believe these guys will bring their A game because they have an understanding of pride and are good enough that they don't want to loose to anyone. Is it like a grand state? Kind of, sort of, but not really. It will make for some good wrestling though as long as none of the guys schedules a date while the tournament is going on.
I believe the toughest kids bracket is the one that (Your) kid is wrestling in!! I tell my boy that he is to go out there and wrestle like every single kid he wrestles IS the best wrestler in the world.
Good luck to everyone this weekend. Who's more nervous you or your wrestler???
now that state is over what are your thoughts of the toughest?

Yes, for example, the brackets with only two or three kids! All ya gotta do is make weight to be state placer.
I think that 10U 70 lived up to the hype of being one of the toughest if not the toughest bracket. There were only 2 matches that were runaways. D1 was very well represented with 2 of the top 4 placers. One other note is that 4 of the 6 placers were at the bottom of the age group. It will be another great bracket next year. Congratulations to all the 16 kids in this bracket. I especially want to congratulate Luke on his victory.
In the first round you had scores of:
6-0
4-0
7-3
Fall 1st period
16-0
6-4
2-0
7-6
This group of kids really got it on. This bracket was loaded with great wrestlers and the sportsmanship was unbelievable. It was very exciting to watch this group of kids.

Is there any reason why a pdf of the completed bracket cannot be included on the results page?
We have the results. How did they get there?
Thanks
