It's all about creating interest, building anticipation and promoting our sport! I applaud Wyatt for stepping up to rank the 321A class. I have over 100 coaches giving me input on weights and am glad to help him get up to speed.

Pre-season rankings provide us with insight on the upcoming season!

Get on board!

I'm on board. The pre-season ranking is good. All I was saying is that after the 1st one why does it need to be updated until the season starts? As we all know some will not settle on weight until the end of Dec. Any one who is not happy /w the rankings is free to post their own as it is only 1 mans opinion anyway.

3A the past couple of years have had 2 rankers and it would be nice to have 3 or 4 or more like the BCS. To make the official posted KWCA roster would be from those points in the different "polls". At the end of the day we would see how good the "pollsters" are. Keepin it light.

The rankings are updated after the official practice date begins. Wrestlers are in the room and weights are verified. Sure there will be changes, but the update gets us that much closer to the correct weights. The one mans opinion is not correct either. The rankings are the result of hundreds of criteria posts, e-mails and calls. If someone is not "happy", they post the criteria they have and if substantive, the rankings are corrected.

Montana Fuller, preseason ranked 4th in Hwt division transferred to Garden City.

So can I get any confirmation that Lambotte & Humphrey are both wrestling at #145 this year?

Troy Reitcheck

I guess your confirmation was wrong Eric, looks like Humphrey's went to 138.

True! I did talk to Humphrey yesterday about that. They reserved their right to change their mind!

Clean up your PM's Eric, I cant send you one. Lol

Fire away. I just deleted a few. Thanks!

I am the person who pushed for the move to 138. We sat down and talked about it from a team standpoint and made our decision. If anybody has any questions i would be glad to answer them.

Jordan Stewart

Should be a war with Dreher if he stays at 138.

Who is this Ross kid at 113?

I hear he spits nails. He also eats lightning and craps thunder.

Rocky clip

He's a junior from Norton who took 1st place this past weekend at Hoxie.

There's a sleeper at 132 from Lyons. I don't know where this kid came from but he's pretty tough. Keep an eye on this kid.

Adrian Lange-12-Lyons is currently ranked 7th in my rankings, so he is right there. Not finishing the season last year kept him from climbing into the top 6. However, his performance last year at Kid's State did make a strong impression on me, just not enough to warrant a ranking.
