Starting the Folkstyle season later allows certain benefits as well as negatives. Ending the Folkstyle season earlier would also allow certain benefits as well as negatives. But the real questions concerning this forum topic is what Kansas can do to improve Freestyle/Greco participation?
- Maybe Kansas has focused too much on the question of �How can we get �more� Folkstyle wrestlers exposed to Freestyle/Greco?�
- Maybe a better approach is the question of �How can Kansas �Mistake Proof� the Freestyle/Greco process to get �ALL� Folkstyle wrestlers exposed to Freestyle/Greco?
You get ALL Kansas wrestlers exposed to all styles by incorporating all styles during the regular season, whether that�s only at practices, or both practices and tourney�s. Ending the Folkstyle season earlier will not guarantee more Freestyle/Greco participation. In fact, for the most part, it would probably just give kids a �jump start� to begin participating in the activities that they normally participate in after the Folkstyle season is over.
One thing is for certain, the current process of what Kansas is doing concerning Freestyle/Greco IS NOT improving at the rate it could, and in some cases, it�s declining.
