We will be running a one-day tournament with 27 varsity and 27 JV teams participating. Varsity will be using a 32-man bracket that places all wrestlers. Medals will be give to to 5 placewinners. All wrestlers will be seeded from 1-32. Hope is that each weight class has enough wrestlers to give each wrestler 4-5 matches
We will also be hosting a JV tourney. JV`s will weigh in and be placed in an 8-man championship format with hopefully three matches for all wrestlers with full brackets. No weight classes are used and wrestlers will be grouped by weights. 4-man or 5-man round robins may be used if needed at lower and upper ends of weights. Winners of each bracket will win a medal and wall chart.

Seeds will not be released and brackets will not be constructed until after weigh-ins to eliminate scratches and those that did not make weight. Coaches need to make sure they follow the procedures and know the deadlines for lineup changes, etc.```'
