I wanted to apologize to the coaches, wrestlers, and fans for the time length of the tournament. We ran into a few technical (computer) problems at the tournament and that set us back a little. The main problem was that we just did not take into account how tough the wrestling was going to be this year and many matches were going the full distance and in many cases they were going into overtime. We thought by leaving four mats down for the first round Saturday would keep us on schedule, but unfortunately it didn�t. Joe Keeler and I are already working on this problem for next year and hopefully we can cut some time on next years tournament. I hope everyone enjoyed the great wrestling, and we appreciate all the help we received during the tournament.
Congratulations to everyone that competed in the tournament.
