It seems like in Kansas, to make 100 wins in your sophomore year is tough to come by, although attainable. It seems most of the top wrestlers, barring injury or other mishaps, attain 100 wins near the end of their junior season. Looking up Missouri brackets, most of thier top placers have reached 100 by the end of their sophomore year. I wonder if it's the 5 match rule, or maybe less points that gets KS less matches. From scanning KS HS brackets for state, I don't see that many kids nearing 50-40 matches for the season. I am curious what the average is, seems like their are a lot of 30ish match seasons going into state.

100 wins though during a kids career is something they can be proud of. Lots of ups and downs during that quest, and something that probably gave them lots of life lessons along the path. Congrats to those wrestlers who attain this achievement!
