The issue of mat space/arena space can be dealt with simply. Extend the tournament to three days. There are bordering states who have a multi-class, single venue with a timetable schedule that can be readily copied. This would allow us to combine all four classes into a single arena. We should look past class rivalry and examine what is best for the sport. I believe you would conclude that by comibing our efforts and showcasing a unified state tournament you can best achieve publicity, enhance recruiting opportunities, and begin to stop the numbers slippage we are experiencing statewide.
