I disagree, first and foremost I personally do not like the fact that they have added grades 1-8. This was the time for the high school wrestlers to show their stuff in front of college coaches, but now I wonder will the coaches even attend now that there is alot of little wrestlers. This event was originally for high school freshman - seniors, it should not go to the same type of tournament as Tulsa Nationals or other kids tournament format..... Good luck to all wrestlers attending.
I love kid's wrestling, but they have enough tournaments to show their stuff...we need at lowest to go a middle school (7-8th grade) division. I know of a lot of college coaches that are turned off by this, although good for the sport in someways it is a recruiting nightmare.
