Ah, ok thanks for posting them.

Look under the Announcement page for the partial list

Once again KSHSAA has proven they don't know a damn thing about wrestling!!

Pratt regional 40.5% ranked wrestlers 50% ranked teams
Holton regional 25.0% ranked wrestlers 20% ranked teams
Chanute regional 20.2% ranked wrestlers 20% ranked teams
DeSoto regional 14.3% ranked wrestlers 10% ranked teams


Is this all the better KSHSAA can do? What a joke!!

It is not that "I need to know! or that I will die if I cant find out where the regional will be located"

I am certainly not perfect when it comes to thinking ahead and making plans. Just ask my spouse!

The issue that leaves a bad taste in my mouth is "Invitations were extended to potential regional wrestling host sites early in December".

Football playoffs, unforeseen construction, financial crisis, and schedule conflicts all have been listed as excuses. How about - I messed up and didn't take care of this when I should have.

The west 4a regional has always been tough and will continue to always be tough. Just the way it is.

Why not try to split up Andale and Valley center?? Send Mulvane to Pratt and one of those other teams to Chanute!

Probably has to do with mileage.

3-2-1A Norton Regional:
51% of ranked wrestlers
70% of ranked teams

you guys are good at math!

I think it is pretty clear that regional assignments are made based as much as can be on geography now, without a thought to competition levels. Cost is the #1 driving factor now, as maybe it should be in the big picture. I am all for having parity in a perfect world too, but if schools are going to cut programs if they cost too much this looks like it is the way it's going to be for a while.

Now if a couple years from now school funding is up and the economy is banging again. I think you have a reasonable argument.

I am a wrestling fanatic too, but this is the real world.

who is the hold out? 5a or 6a school?

As they always have been.

I support the Regionals being seperated fairly, BUT;If we were to try and create parity by selecting regional participants by rankings other than location, then we would need to learn to be more patient as well. The season is 2 weeks old and we've been throwing a fit to know where the regionals are 2 months from now.
You could select the hosts, but you couldnt assign the teams until basically the end of the season. There is no way to forsee injuries, illnesses, suspensions, expulsions, etc.... There is no guarantee the percentage of ranked teams and the ranked individuals listed above are going to be that diverse at the time the Regionals actually take place. Those percentages will fluctuate each time the rankings are updated.

Man, I didn't mean to get everyone so riled up. I realize regionals are geographically oriented...it's just interesting to see how they break down. Personally I always liked going to the difficult regional because placing there set you up well for the state tournament, which is the true measure of a successful season. Good luck to everyone (except Moeder, that guy thinks he knows everything!!)

Thats right Johnny Boy, everything EXCEPT: "rendezvous" Remember that one??

5A and 6A wow, I must be blind because they are still not done????

Desoto,...wow, Will has some pull after all..lol
