First off I would like to say sorry for scratching the rest of my sons matches; but I tried to be a trooper after driving there last night; motel, gas around $150 total and six hours round trip. I was way to sick to stay there.
But my question is if what is the point of ranking wrestlers a,b,c,d if they are not going to be entered as so. Now I knew before going to Ellsworth Nix was entered in the A bracket, which he is a true D novice. There was three 6 and under 40 bracket there, I just don't see the point of a D novice wrestler having to go against A wrestlers and being pinned in 10 seconds, I don't believe it does either wrestler any good. If ranking didn't matter why didn't they just throw them in a 16 man bracket?
Now I am not complaining because my boy was put in an A bracket because I think competition is good for every kid, but what competition does have if he is wrestling state qualifiers. like i said i am sick today so my wife is tired of me complaining so i will complain to you folks. i keep telling him to wrestle his best or lose like the rest has not sunk in yet.
