The other event that was being referred to is the USAW Kids National Championships at the UNI Dome in Cedar Falls, Iowa (not exactly close, but a lot easier to get to than Virginia Beach).
I really wish Brute would have moved there tournament back a week so it was on Easter weekend and was not the same time as two other premier national tournaments. In years past Brute has been a very difficult tournament in the Junior, Sophomore, and Freshmen classes. This year’s event seems to have lost many of the better wrestlers who come for the high school division to Virginia Beach and Cedar Falls.
Moving it to a different weekend than Senior Nationals and the USAW Kids Nationals would be a good idea but I would not make it Easter weekend. I don't think you are going to attract as many out of town wrestlers on Easter weekend.
