This proposal would be for wrestling only, and would not require a change for other sports? Right? It's already done for other sports, so why not get all the coaches on board in all classes. Again, I would like to hear from some 5A and 6A coaches think about this idea.
Correct, wrestling only at this time, at least for me.
Other team sports: FB, BB, VB, Baseball, and SB need to retain a format of 32 32 32 32 etc. State tournament qualification in these sports in each enrollment class is through eight sub-state tournaments each with 4 schools. The winning school from each sub-state moves on to the state tournament. Thus, the number of schools in all enrollment classes needs to remain an even multiple of 4, i.e., 8, 16, 32, 64. (32/4 = 8 sub-states with 4 teams, 4/2 ==2 , 2/2 = one school from each of the 8 sub-state tournaments advances to the 8 team state tournament.
I KNOW, I should not/did not mean to discuss BB on this wrestling forum. But Coach Lane asked a question that needed answering.
