All-star post season events are supposed to be to showcase Sr's that want to move on, or just let them have a fun event in thanks for their hardwork. If a kid did not wrestle in HS they should not be considered for this event. JMO

There will always be legitimate candidates left off of these rosters due to the lack of availability of an opponent from the other squad.

A case for consideration could be made for many wrestlers. This is not an open tournament, it is a dual, one night, a couple hours. They will pick the best team possible. But many deserving Senior wrestlers will be left off. Nature of the beast.

Maybe there was a mix up and the request was sent to Bishop Carroll.

MO is certainly talent heavy in the senior class this year. last year it seemed like they felt that they were out manned. this year looks to be a doozy. this looks very even on paper. should be very fun, the MO folks traveled pretty well last year, to cheer on their athletes. come KS let's show up BIG, and support our kids.

Are they gonna score one bout per weight or both where they have 2 weights?
