Challenges were set up for large tournaments with little or no quality seeding and no qualification tournaments. There is no challenge in HS or college.

It is a great "theory" and even better for marketing for the large tournaments, but it is rarely a true match for 2nd place. As Moeder stated the kid who just lost the championship is at a major disadvantage coming off a big loss. And Squidprorow also has just as valid a point. Where does the challenge end? 4th? 6th?
