I had two sons wrestling and both were put into 5 man brackets. With all the scratches they BOTH only ended up with one other wrestler in their bracket. Both of them wrestled the same kid best two out of three and went home. A little disappointed because there was another bracket of the same weight class with with 5 in it. I don't understand why they couldn't have put them in an 8 man bracket. At least we could have wrestled some different kids. On the good side we were out of there fairly early.
