Klint,

You would know that better than I do. I felt the heavyweight class was pretty good at the Bobcat but Zlatnick clearly stood out over the rest there. I am definitely not an expert on it. Is the depth in the heavyweight class this year really that much different than other years?

Sometimes I wonder if the lack of opportunity due to the small number of weight classes discourages some of the bigger football players from coming out for wrestling. Does the fact that there is more money available for football scholarships also contribute to some football players deciding to concentrate on weight lifting during this time of year? I know there were two senior Aquinas football players who were attending the Regionals as spectators on Saturday who have signed to play football at Notre Dame and Northwestern. Those two guys are big, very athletic and would have definitely been great high school wrestlers at Aquinas.
