Actually I disagree. Unlike some of the district matches the dual format with all teams getting to wrestle each of their long time rival schools head to head in a one day event adds a dimension to this league champioinship that is unique unless you have experienced it and the history associated with these fine schools. It is truly a TEAM event and Blue Valley West has consistently shown over the last two years that they have one of the strongest wrestling TEAMS in Eastern Kansas. If anything..the tournament may be less interesting next year when the league is expanded by two teams and the format changes.

No offense against Gardner-Edgerton, as they have some great wrestlers, however BVW, St. Thomas Aquinas and BVN (current EKL members) all finished ahead of them in the Husky this year in TEAM POINTS and BV West won the last head to head team dual at Lousburg last year. It is great to see the league grow and Gardner-Edgerton is a great addition to the league...along with Southwest who I am sure will have a great wrestling program as well..but make it more interesting???...I doubt it!
