Clarification on the entry deadline. The flyer states the correct entry deadline of Friday the 25th. On Track Wrestling it incorrectly states Tuesday the 29th. We will take entries through Saturday the 26th at Midnight, since we will be bracketing the tournament on Sunday the 27th. Please make sure you have your entries in by Saturday the 26th at midnight. Sorry for the confusion.

will there be combined brackets
Posted By: Bones1768 Re: 2013 Maize Battle of The Belt - 01/23/13 01:57 PM
Last year they did. Since you asked on another section. Last year at maize they combined 14U 150-155 and 14U 160-165 So this year they might combine those numbers again or maybe 145-150.

Will there be satellite weigh ins? If so, where where would locations be?
Thanks!:)
Posted By: Maize Wrestling Re: 2013 Maize Battle of The Belt - 01/24/13 03:20 AM

so no?
Posted By: Jack Otero Re: 2013 Maize Battle of The Belt - 01/30/13 07:59 PM
Mahan my guess is No... There are over 1100 entries it's going to be tough! Always has been!

how do they decide the Outstanding Wrestlers?

Typically most pins in the fatest time, but that is determined by each tournament.
Posted By: Maize Wrestling Re: 2013 Maize Battle of The Belt - 02/03/13 03:52 PM
Outstanding Wrestling is most pins in the fastest time and champion in the belt bracket. I'll start a new thread with Team Champions and Outstanding Wrestlers shortly.

Posted By: Mahan Re: 2013 Maize Battle of The Belt - 02/04/13 04:46 PM
Idk that pinning a bunch of kids real fast is that Outstanding. Not when you have brackets with state champs and state placers squaring off in the semi-finals, let alone some of the finals mathups. Winning a bracket like that is outstanding. jmo
Posted By: master blaster Re: 2013 Maize Battle of The Belt - 02/04/13 05:09 PM
Agreed, but it's different than HS where the coaches get to see most of the final's and semi's and vote. Not sure if there's another way it can be done at the kids level.
Posted By: Mahan Re: 2013 Maize Battle of The Belt - 02/04/13 05:19 PM
I would agree with that, would have to do quite a bit of research...HS level I usually pick my OW during the seeding meeting...whoever wins the toughest bracket should be OW...but that would be difficult at a kids tournament, where we don't know anyone thats not at our kids weight
Posted By: Jack Otero Re: 2013 Maize Battle of The Belt - 02/04/13 08:18 PM
It would get political and that isn't good for the sport. With the set criteria which was notified ahead of time everyone knows where they stand. Only way to do it at a kids tournament.
Posted By: Spexy Re: 2013 Maize Battle of The Belt - 02/04/13 08:43 PM
Doing a OW is great. But don't give the top 4 seeds a BYE, cheats them out of a pin.
Posted By: Powercat Re: 2013 Maize Battle of The Belt - 02/04/13 09:51 PM
It kind of stinks when u go to a tournament of such high level competition and you have to pin everyone to be an "outstanding wrestler" of the tournament when in actuality to win your weight is pretty dang outstanding but I realize there is no other reasonable way to declare the OW
