If the 5 match rule is a National Federation Rule that Kansas will not change, then the alternative is to not creat the condiion that may require an individual to do more than five matches on 1 day. No more than 1 bye in the opening round, all first round losers go home early, and start the backside with cross bracketing in the (old ) second round of the losers bracket a way to stop the potential of a 6th match. Tough--but that's life. With first round losers going home early it puts the pressure on to insure winning early. Isn't success under pressure and stress what wrestling is about.
