Amen Beeson.
I bet Clay Center and Abliene did not have a bunch of opens and an empty gym at their dual this year.
I wrestled back in the early 80's in KC. We were not a very good team. But, we still packed them in, at least once a week for a dual (often two duals per week - one at home/one away and then a tourney on Saturdays). Or, maybe it (the packed gym at home) was an overflow crowd of Blue Springs, Park Hill and Oak Park fans (the power house teams back then in the KC area) coming over and sitting with the lowly Truman High School fans! ;-) Go Patriots! We tried hard! We had one state champ!
