NCKL,
Merry Christmas! Lighten up! Everything can be a joking matter if worded appropriately. You are WAY too serious to be on a talk forum. In the big picture it really doesn't matter which tournament is important or whether we even have wrestling or not as it is just an extracurricular activity. But, since we have wrestling and we have a place to discuss it lets have some fun!
Everyone is entitled to an opinion and sometimes there is absolutely no way to judge or determine which choice is more likely to correct. In this case there are indisputable facts that can prove out which event is tougher, given that we agree that "tough" means the greater number of higher performing athletes, so my sarcasm is just a way of supporting the facts.
I have been around a long time as well as there have been times when 321A was, at the top, competitive with the larger school classifications but at this point in time they are not. Just the way it is. Of course anyone can be beaten in any given match but generally speaking the Beloit tournament, this year, is not in the top five of Kansas hosted events. Sorry to have offended you but not so sorry that I probably wont' again.
Happy Holidays!
