is there confirmed skin case's from this tourney or what. stuff happens deal with it an move on..
Well, does anyone know? My sons have been participating in the classic for the better part of the last decade. Not once have they contracted any skin condition as a result. Nor to my knowledge has anyone else that we know. Personally, I feel that the "venue" has become part of the rich lore of USA wrestling in Kansas. A change of venue would take away from the hype surrounding the event and in my opinion would make it something less.
We had 5 confirmed cases last year come back into our practice room. 2 caught it in time to get treated and 3 others didn't have it show up until Thursday before Subs and given the time frame of 72 hours as required on the skin release form, these 3 were unable to participate at Subs, District, State. What a shame to end such a long season of hard work for these kids and not be able to be afforded the opportunity to attempt to qualify for State due to a fungal infection.
I just wish that the event was a first class event as it should be and not have the reputation that it currently does. Maybe with all of the views and the discussion, instead of bashing other people's opinions and feelings, some positive change can come out of all of this for the betterment of the entire Kansas Wrestling Community.
