Why is everyone whining about the regional assignments. So what you have quite a few good teams in your regional (NORTON) big deal teams and kids hearts get broken every year in sports. Two Ranked teams go up against each other in every sport but only one of them get to go to the state tournament atleast four wrestlers from each region get to go, so not as many kids get their hearts broke, that is just apart of sports. So quit gripping about it and be one of the top four then you dont have anything to worry about. Making it to Hays or Wichita. Think if there are 16 kids in each of your brackets 12 of those kids will be crushed and 4 will have succeed. four a total of 16 kids again at your state tourney. Yes some may be less deserving as others but it happens all the time every year a less deserving team makes it to state and a team that thinks they should be there is either sitting in the stands watching or at home watching it. so dont act like your the first its happen to if you dont make it then good luck next year work that much harder in the off season to make your self better. and if you dont have the will to do that then just remember yourself walking off the regional mat not making it to Hays or Wichita and that should be a good motivator for you. So please just quit all your whining again you arent the first that this has happened too and no matter how much u whine its not gonna change where your wrestling in your regional
