There are few teams in the state who can contend with Manhattan (6A), STA (6A), Arkansas City (5A), Bishop Carroll (5A), Kansas City Turner (5A), Shawnee Heights (5A) and Valley Center (5A).
There likely are only two (2) schools in 3A which can compete - Norton and Silver Lake, and several in 4A, Abilene, Clay Center, Colby, Columbus, Goodland and Santa Fe Trail.
With that said, wrestling has historically been tougher in NW Kansas communities and I see no reason to believe this trend is coming to an end, however to suggest the classification as a whole is superior is false.
