What has made KS wrestling so tough, is that people are buying into the fact that all of the offseason stuff that guys like Cokeley started, like Middle school duals, causes drastic changes in kids' attitudes. Now there is a solid Elementary School duals tourney going on every year.

Our FS GR program, taking teams to the Schoolboy, Cadet, and Junior duals, has done wonders as well. Open rooms that are well attended around the state, I could go on and on. In the old days, noone wanted to dare have other kids in "our" room, cause they might figure out how to beat my kid. I remember some of the parents of kids in our club, back when Fisher started having open room nights, not letting their kids attend because of that thinking. After a while, they came around, and then realized that it was a good thing. It is a two way street.
