VanFam7,

I would agree with you. I recall a wrestler who got 5th in Subs (District 1 South) and was allowed to wrestl at Districts because they only had three wrestlers from the North Sub. I think that is great.

I am curious if the allowing Districts to get more than four wrestlers through to State if there are openings left by other Districts due to low numbers has been discussed at the State Meeting. I can think of pros and cons in both scenarios (only 4 per District vs filling up the bracket). It may cause more problems than it fixes. I still think that it is unfortunate that some wrestlers are unable to wrestle State because their District is loaded with tallent, whereas another District can't even fill their four slot quota. At the end of the weekend, the six kids that did the best wrestling would still be standing on the podium.
