There's really no way to compare KS teams to those in other states since there is very little team competition with other states. But as a state in general, Kansas has done fairly well in the junior national tournament in recent years. I would be interested in seeing a KS "all-star" team compete with similar teams from surrounding states in a multi-state dual tournament format.

As far as Hoxie goes, I don't know if any kids would be included on this team. But I would be in favor of having Kirk Baker coach the team. Year in and year out, he turns average kids into state placers and good kids into state champions. The amazing thing to me is that they can even fill all the weight classes when they only have 19 kids on the entire team. And just for the record, Hoxie's boys basketball team also placed at state last year.
