i've been a fan of combining classes 5 and 6 for a long time. not only for wrestling but for other sports as well. i would have loved to see olathe north meet hutchinson in the football championship this year. i went to swimming meet on friday and the competition is watered down a lot by separating the classes (they were combined up until this year). i don't like in basketball and baseball you only have to win 2 games to make the state tournament and i don't like in wrestling that over 1/2 the varsity kids in 5A and 6A qualify. i really feel that in all sports the 5A schools and 6A schools are comparable, especially at the top. i think it would make the state tournaments more competitive and qualifying more impressive if we combined to just have a 5A with 64 schools.
