One oversight isn't too bad for 8-10 hours of combing through teams track accounts that are not updated and results from 7-8 ladies tournaments. Thank you to the group of coaches that take the time to do these for the ladies. @Ranger123 we appreciate what you do, this ranking stuff is tough work and the pay is terrible lol

I will give my 2 cents.
Are these perfect? Absolutely not, but until someone decides to dedicate A LOT of hours for exactly zero pay. And by the way, even putting in crazy amounts of time there are still things that all rankers miss. Pretty sure I have missed a kid graduating before as well.
I will also add that as I have spent a ton of time over the last 5-6 years overanalyzing the national ranking services for both high school and college rankings, I can say with a high degree of certainty, those guys are paid to do what they do and frequently do a relatively bad job at it.

Good point,not to mention every week Flo posts over 100 upsets based on their rankings,many times its unranked guys/gals taking out top 20 guys/gals so as Wrestling Mindset says
"If you want to be successful in this sport you have to have a blatant disregard for rankings. Does the higher ranked wrestler get spotted a few points? Do they get to start with a leg? Do they get a gun and you get a knife?
Make sure you wrestle the opponent and not their ranking. No one can bring their medals on the mat with them. You gotta go out and prove it every day."

I have stayed out of the girls rankings. I'm just going to coach them at this point.
