Seeding Information:  We will use https://arena.flowrestling.org to enter wrestler data and run the tournament. The link to input your wrestler’s information is:  https://events.flowrestling.org/event/f121c0fa-3fe7-4c3c-9510-be2dd8f744bd

Please have all information input by 9:00 PM Monday, February 17th. This will give the State Finalist an opportunity to adjust their wrestlers In-state records.

Seeding Criteria:
     1.  Overall In-state record (playoffs included)
     2.  Head to Head (If winning percentage is within 10% points)
     ***  The weight class a wrestler enters at Upper State, they have to count all in-state matches at that weight and above. 
            A wrestler MAY NOT carry record up, but MUST take record down.  *** 

The Seeding Meeting will be held at White Knoll High School on ???

***  NOTE: If any wrestler is a scratch before weigh-ins on Friday, then we will adjust the bracket.  If a wrestler misses weight, the bracket will also be re-drawn. This is all in an attempt to get the fairest brackets for everyone.  ***
