Kansas City Stampede - 2015

Based on how the 16 are placed in the bracket AFTER the pools(some wrestlers get in favorable pools) - so there is some seeding criteria for the pools.
- "All head coaches will have to provide accurate information on their wrestlers in order to insure the top wrestlers are separated." This is not always done properly - unfortunately.


Pool Placement – There is no seeding of the tournament. We will place the wrestlers into the pools, working to separate the best wrestlers into different pools. The pool placement will be based on national rankings, national tournament results, prior state tournament results in your home state, and past win-loss records. Rankings and input from nationally respected columnists may be considered for guidance on this process. Additionally, we will try to separate in the pools all wrestlers that could possibly meet each other at any other time during the regular season. If you compete against any of the other teams in the tournament anytime during your regular season please let us know as soon as possible. All head coaches will have to provide accurate information on their wrestlers in order to insure the top wrestlers are separated. The pool placement will be finalized no later than Wednesday evening, December 16th.
