This is another reason I do not like entries being released before subdistricts. It ALLOWS kids to move away from kids that they don't want to wrestle. I love it when a kid moves to get away from a kid, and that kid they are trying to avoid also moves, along with 3 other tough kids, and that "running" kid doesn't make it out of subdistricts..........
Your kid wrestle all season, and then you looked at the entries and were surprised to see someone? Entries released or not my wrestler had pretty good idea who could be in his bracket at state. But with upsets and bad days you never no who is going to come out on top.
I have to Admit I've have acually heard about people doing this and though I would never allow it. i don't know that i would enjoy seeing any kid get a dose of crushed goals. If my son Acually came out and said "i don't want to wrestle Billy Joe I going to 75lbs" The next thing he would see is him name on a 75lb bracket! now all through the state qualifing tounaments I Did tell him You better wrestle you butt off cause if you lose districts and end up on the other side in the quaters wrestling kids you don't want to wrestle til the finals if you can help it. But staying on the front side is always the plan.
