Gardner and Eudora also utilize the pool and line bracket format. This does give your kids more mat time. Pursel is saying that the invitation committee will NOT take a partial team. If you don't have a full lineup or expect to have a full lineup they will not extend an invitation. They were full back in the spring this year. They turned away a Collinsville,OK team that has some tough kids in their lineup. I begged our coach to bail on the weak a$$ tournament known as the Johnson County Classic. No one gets better from six first period pins. Not even the kids who lost! He too is afraid of hanging a kid with 0-8 but what the heck, you get eight matches in one weekend against some solid competition. The JoCo Classic has declined every year the last four years. Heck some of these guys wrestle each other 6 times a year so lets blow it up and make these AD's and coaches go find some real competition.
