On the topic, I think it is a sad commentary on today's youth that posters imply that the only way to build a program is to make it easier for the wrestlers to succeed, and we are not talking about them, the wrestles, working hard.

Also, a lot of kids have worked real hard to get 5/6th in their respective state tourneys. Adding another class would truly cheapen their accomplishments.


Anytime you send your kid(s) to a private school the public school benefits as they still receive your funding but you do not use the FULL SERVICES you would be entitled to.

KSHSAA is becoming a joke. 8 state champs in football. Wow. Two in 8 man?? How can their be that much disparity between the smallest and largest 8 man school?? The whole thing is so watered down and many are still missing the point that the school count for each classification is not just based on the number of schools but on total enrollment.

2012 KSHSAA Enrollments
6A 53383 32 Schools
5A 31232 32 Schools
4A 28657 64 Schools
321 28133 227 Schools
