Too bad im a secret spy, it would be against federal law to put my name:)

Do not understand Fisher's question or his intent. Is this another Lucas Baker slam at 5A?

Think it would be very difficult for a 4A school to hustle up 14 state qualifers--or 12 qualifers under the old system--4A schools just not big enough!

Garden city qualified all 14 in 98

After nearly 30 years I guess its ok to brag about my old team . . .

In 1984 Beloit had all 12 of its wrestlers in the finals of the Regional Touranment at Norton(at the time there were only 12 weight classes). Beloit won the first 9 weights at the qualifyer.

At state in Russell all 12 Beloit wrestlers finished in the top six, however, they only placed 4 back then. Nine Beloit wrestlers finished in the top 4 with six winning titles.

Matt Treaster

I guess we should let everyone know that Coach Treaster also gets some credit for the Newton team sending all 13 of its kids to state this year. Newton has a great club program

Phillipsburg came dang close in 1987..... when they won state.

Fisher..... Larry and the rest of the 5a guys do not like when I point out how bad there state tourny makes Kansas look. I recently pointed out that 44 kids in 5a had losing records. Thats 20% of the kids wrestling.
They responded by saying they wrestle more quality kids than 4a (which just makes us all laugh)and thats why they have losing records.

Well today of those 44 wrestlers 41 of them lost of the 3 that won there first match 2 of them wrestled another kid with a losing record and one of them had a bye yes I said a bye in the state tournament. I would not be surprised if they only had three kids in a weight at regionals.

Of those 41 that lost I would guess 75% were pinned 15% were tech falled 8% were majored and 2% were simply beat.

These 5a guys get mad at me year after year for point out the weakness in there state tourny.

They love there first round easy wins and do not want to do anything to change it.

They truly do believe they are the best division in Kansas Wrestling so be ready for a battle if you press this anymore.

or you can sit back and watch the post I post later on today after I figure out how many team points those 44 wrestler gave up today and just how many of them went 0-2.

Have a great day and good luck to all wrestlers still in the tourny.

We qualified 14 in 2004, placed 8. Also the year we won state.

Beloit lined up 12 out of 12 in the 4A sub-state finals at Norton in 1984! Beloit took 1 side of the mat, everyone else took the other side. Pretty sure they qualified 12 of 12 in 1983 also in 3A. That 1984 Beloit team has the largest margin of victory ever at a State tournament in any class winning by 111.5 points, 193 to 81.5 over runner-up Columbus. 12 wts. 4 medals per weight class.
