Salina & Hays could handle what I discussed above. They each had kids tournaments with many more wrestlers. Salina had over 1000 kids and Hays had around 900 I think. Just and idea for the powers to be. Trying to think outside the BOX.
It's not the entry numbers, it is the number of mats. How many of those entries wrestled on full size mats? Salina can only handle 6 full mats on the floor thus they would be limited to two classes.
