This was a varsity competition?

Personally, I don't think there's any reason to keep team scores at mixers. In our neck of the woods, mixers are typically designed for lower levels (JV/C Team or Freshmen only). I view them as an opportunity to get green kids as much mat time as possible, against equal competition, in a short amount of time. We hope our kids get 2-3 matches and get everyone home at a decent time - as all our mixers are weekday events.

Team scores are a huge aspect of building culture & the wrestling fan base at subvarsity tournaments and all varsity competitions. I just don't see the value at "match-ups" or "mixers". Just my two cents.
