I would have to disagree I have always thought 5a had equal or better competition than 6a in the past years. Also schwartz lost to the freshman from campus recently, (a very good freshman) I wouldn't say he was a heavy favorite but I agree they are some of the top wrestlers in state, but as a whole they are down.Saying 5a is horrible probably was going too far. Yes we do need grand state. Not for bragging rights but because there is nothing other than HS nationals after state. and from what I've heard kids wrestling is way down.
