I think we are missing the problems here

1. I don't know one person who thinks that they should pay for a tourney not wrestled.

2. Life is about choices. Our leaders should look at what is for the greater good. Doing what is better for a select few wrestlers just so that they do not have to chose between 2 tournaments is not what is better for the majority of the wrestlers.

3. There are multiple tournaments available to enter every week and we don't get to wrestle them all...we choose.

4. How is it okay for some of the kids in these brackets. For instance there are brackets with 15 kids, which means while everyone else in the state gets to wrestle 2-3 matches to qualify, if one of these lucky wrestlers looses first match he will have to wrestle 5 times to place and 6 times to get third.

5. We need to remain a democracy and allow fair voting and not limit it to a few greedy coaches who are simply in it for team points or the glory of possibly having one more state placer.

6. CHOOSE to be part of an awesome dual team representing Kansas or CHOOSE to wrestle in one of the (up until now) greatest qualifying series.
