Below, are the regional locations for track - the "regional" are geography based and yes some of it does matter on travel costs. I am sure they do not sit at meetings and say there are 10 kids in this region that have the fastest mile in the state and 2 in the other part of the state. The KSHSAA people do not sit around and say lets make it hard for these kids to make it to state and easy for these other kids - that I do not believe.

In wrestling, track, cross country, tennis, golf, gymnastics, etc., - Sometimes it just works out that way where some individuals seasons end at the regional. Do they even need a regional for wrestling? 32 man bracket straight up, no seeding, blind draw, double elimination - 2 day tournament. There would be more locations willing to host state.
