I agree from a loss record there isn't any difference and you are also correct neither are a champion, but I disagree from that point forward. Ask any kid what they would prefer? Ask any older competitor if they were prouder to have been a runner-up or a consolation champion at the kid’s level, high school level, colligate level or even beyond?

Rotating district match ups is a good idea, I just think it can be improved on.

Questions, for those brackets that have low numbers, we round robin them, why? Why aren’t they seed and then wrestled out? (BTW, I agree with the round robin bracket)
