Lance, that was not the reason that the High School Division was added. At the State meeting, one of the main selling points was that this would be for kids who loved wrestling and wanted to continue. We knew that because of Sr. Nationals, Flow Nationals, and a few others that were already scheduled on this date that we would not get alot of "elite" kids to participate. College Coaches are not going to come to a "kids" state championship tournament. With some dates changing, I think people would like to see these match ups. Too many kids see the High School season as being over after High School State, and want to start baseball or track for their High School. This was meant to give more opportunity to kids that just love to wrestle.
