I wrestled for Anderson County last year and ran into the same problem that manhattan is having. I had a really good friend of mine who was also a senior right behind me on JV. Did he deserve to be on JV? Hell no!! That kid could have easily been in the top 10 for 135 4a last year. He might have even been able to beat a couple kids I lost to at state. However, all year long we were wrestling off for the 135 spot and right after I placed first at the Kearney tournament in MO. I thought I was wrestling better than ever, however he finally beat me in a 2 out of 3 match that week. He got to wrestle varsity for the concordia tournament and I had to sit at home. I just wish that he could have been at a different weight class than me so that he would have had the experience of going to state. However when you have a team with 4 or 5 (or maybe even more) good wrestlers wrestling for 3 or 4 spots, someone has to lose out.
