Johnson County/Wyandotte County is pretty weak when it comes to wrestling. This conclusion comes from a per capita evaluation, knowing Johnson County is the largest county in the state, Wyandotte is third, and that something like 1/2 of the 6A teams come from here and maybe 1/4 to 1/3 of the 5A teams come from here, if you include teams like Lawrence/Free State and Leavenworth/Lansing. Just compare the numbers of state placers/team placings after the state tournament, and you will see what I mean. This is not to say there are not and have been great kids here, it is just on average we underperform with the Wichita area and the rest of the state. We do have strong kids clubs, notably Paola, STA, EKL, and the Bonner Springs and Leavenworth County clubs, but not near enough to cover this large area. I say this not to impugn anyone or any club, just to point out the facts- we need to improve our performances to obtain the same levels as the rest of the state.
