Invitations have been sent out to Seniors. I encourage any and all underclassmen who are serious about post high school wrestling to make every attempt to make it to this event. Especially juniors! There will be more college coaches at this tournament than any other tournament you can attend.
Kansas has had some non qualifiers do well in the past. If someone were to not qualify by making the finals, what is the process of petitioning in for the senior bracket?
When I looked into this...this is the information that I found:
Registration Deadline is Sunday, March 27, 2011.
Eligibility:
Must be enrolled in high school with senior eligibility and fit one of the
following requirements:
*State Champion or State Runner-up during the duration of your high school
wrestling scholastic career.

*CA will qualify the top 8 in their state
*Placed in the following NHSCA Events during Freshman thru Junior year:
*Top 4 at the NHSCA National Open
*Top 8 at the NHSCA Freshman, Sophomore, or Junior Nationals
*If you do not meet any of the criteria listed above, you will need to petition
for a wild card - email nhsca@nhsca.com.

$45 – No additional wrestling cards are needed.
NOTE: Entry fee will only be refunded with a doctor's note.

Hope this helps for anyone wanting to petition for a wildcard spot.
