I agree with Will and I'm sure the majority on this subject. The best learning/coaching opportunity Matt has had so far this year was a one point loss up in Nebraska against a state champ.
He is looking forward to a couple of tournaments coming up where he'll hopefully get to match up against some locally ranked wrestlers. If Kansas or whoever is stuck on having a local only tourney (JOCO Classic), I would propose it get opened up to a Eastern Kansas Classic adding teams like, Turner, Lawrence, Manhatten, Lansing etc.. That would toughen up the competition quite a bit. I would also like to see it moved as to not interfere with the KC Classic. Last weekend before League Championships would probably work for most.
Just my thoughts,
