Ryan didn't wrestle 5/6A, he doesn't understand what you are talking about, 50% don't qualify in 321/4A. Not arguing they are the best, just deep.

Also, your comments are really insulting to the parents/fans/kids who believe working hard and qualifying and maybe even placing in state means anything. By your standards only 1 or 2 in each bracket really count anyway. Lets make kids qualify for regionals and then only take the top 1. Would that make you happy.


I did not mean to offend anyone, but the word "elite" was used. Elite: The choice or best of a collective group. Technically only the State Champion of all classes would be considered elite. Unfortunately we do not have that option in Kansas.
