Kansas population: 2,871,238 - Jul 2011 Source: U.S. Census Bureau

If my math is correct, 6 classes in kansas would be around the same ratio as SD.


South Dakota would have more total HS wrestlers when you consider that 7th and 8th graders are eligible.

We only have 4 wrestling classifications. 720,000 per class, roughly.

Minnesota 5,345,000 population and three wrestling classifications. 1,781,000 per class, roughly.
