A Kansas State Dual tournament could look like this:
Week 1 of January 8 Double Duals across the state. Each team wrestles twice - winner advances to quarter finals.
Week 3 of January Quarterfinals - Teams negotiate who will host. Winner moves to State Semi Finals.
Week 2 of Feb ( same weekend as league tournaments) Location TBD Double Dual SEMIS/ 3rd- 4th STATE Finals
The regional assignments are listed alphabetical that is how they are listed in this bracket . Based on this bracket, I would project that Finals would be
Manhattan VS Olathe North
That would be a good dual to watch!
Double Duals
Derby VS Dodge City Garden City VS Haysville-Campus **** Hutch VS Junction City Free State VS Manhattan
******* Topea VS Washburn Rural Wichita- East VS Wichita- North
**********
Wichita South VS Wichita SE Wichita West VS Wichita NW
************
Gardner Edgerton VS Wyandotte Olathe East VS Lawrence
************** Olathe North VS Olathe NW Olathe South VS OP Blue Valley
************************
Blue Valley North VS BV North Wet Blue Valley West VS SM East
Don't count out the fightin' Top Hats! Washburn Rural is 13-2 in duals with dual wins over ON and MHS. Losses to Cameron, MO (34-34 tiebreak loss) and to BVSW (a lot to a little, but hey, they're 5A, so they wouldn't be there).
Lawrence Free State is also a very good dual team....very strong 106 on up. No weak links.

The fact that girls are forced to wrestle at state in the middle of the week is laughably sexist.
Hey Damon - I have Top Hats in the Semi's - Did not know you have already beat ON and MHS.
The thing is - a state dual tournament would not be hard to do - Most every team wrestles Duals - (not SJA) Just a little planning and it would work with in what is already happening.
