Chad, do you think receiving byes out to the medal round or possibly even to the final (slim I know) and given a medal is right? Especially if there are better kids getting beat out on the other side?
I don't like having a wrestler get a bye out to the semifinals, as I am sure the wrestler does not like it either. Very few of the Brackets have this problem. It is not the kids fault. They did everything they were asked, showed up and wrestle. Their is no shame in that. I would rather see that happen then for the greater number of finalists having to prove themselves. The champion is still the champion.
