I have found a Middle School National Dual event that would be great to put a few Kansas teams in. It is going to be in Iowa and will be April 13th - 15th. I need to know how many teams everyone thinks we should have? Last year Illinois had four!!! We have as many good middle school wrestlers as Illinois so we should be able to put together at least three! The participation requirement would allow us to recruit from NE, MO, CO, and OK so the more the merrier.
Eric Johnson and Tom Baughman, we need your recruiting help
