  2. When entering your wrestlers you will be asked for 2 records:

In-State record (used for seeding) – wrestlers record against kids from SC only. (if they wrestled a kid from GA in a tournament that happened in SC, it does not count for this record, only count W/L against SC kids)

Overall Record (used to pass on to State tourney director) – this is the wrestlers Overall record for 2023-2024. (this includes out of state wins and losses)

  1. Do not touch the “Rec Mod” field, this is used by tournament director for seeding purposes. Leave this set as “No”.
  2. Once entries are visible online, email aweathers@greenvilleschools.us with any head to heads so I can begin working through them ahead of the seeding meeting.
