The kids get seede based on records, state qualifier, state placer, state champ, etc., They generally only seed out 4 to 8 places and then draw in the other kids.

Example:

1 seed) Tim 25-0 2 time state champ
2 seed )Tom 23-2 2 time state placer
3 seed )Jim 23-6 State Qualifier
4 seed ) Joe 20-8 State Qualifier
drawn in) Bill 18-19
drawn in) Sam 18-19
drawn in) Pete 18-19
drawn in) Ralph 18-19

This could be different seeding if Jim gave Tom his 2 losses on the year. Anyway, everybody has a list of all the kids and their records going into the meeting. I hope this helps
