Having a referee conduct a seeding meeting actually takes any local bias out of it. I don't know what the criteria is, but it is usually state finish first. Who placed higher at state? If you get away from criteria, and place last years head to head above state, it would take an hour a weight class to seed this thing. It will all work out.
They both finished 3rd at State. It takes 5 seconds to say, "Moeder pinned Salas last year". It will not all work out. Either Pena or Moeder will not wrestle in the final.
