Part of the reason for the HS division was to hope we get some HS champions/placers, from different classes (321a, 4a, 5a, 6a) to wrestle each other.
I believe that this was the hope. Looking at the numbers this year, there appear to be many wrestlers/coaches/parents that didn't get the memo, or didn't take time to read it. This year's High School division (Sub-District Totals):
D1 164
D2 138
D3 103
D4 88
My son wrestled the H.S. division last year and would have wrestled it this year had it not been for a H.S. band trip next week to Florida that cost us a heap load of money. I know that others have their reason why their H.S. wrestler is not competing. It is unfortunate, because this could have been the "Grand State" that many people have asked for.
Well, no band trip the next two years, so barring injury or illness, Garrett will be back in the mix at the Kids' Fed H.S. division in '13 and '14 (unless it is dropped due to the low turnout).
