Coach Sutphin

Is this a one day thing?  How are you going to get past the 5 match rule? 

This is a one day tournament.  To my understanding there is no 5 match rule in youth, coaches do have the option if needed to bring more that 1 wrestler per weight class to give their wrestlers a break.

I don't know the rules for Elementary and MS, so you may be correct.  I thought they had to follow KHSAA rulings.  If this is not the case, that may be a positive so long as we do not overwhelm our newer youth wrestlers, but I guess that is on the coaches.

Worst case scenerio there will be 6 matches.  Total # of rounds is seven but most teams will either have 5 matches or at the most 6.

I think this is a great idea!! It gives schools that dont have big numbers a chance to compete with some of the bigger schools. Great job with this and hopefully all 16 teams will be there and will compete

TTT

We will be hosting this event in our High School arena.  We need two additional mats for the event, please call Jerry Sutphin @ 859-432-2626 if your mats would be available.

TTT

There is no five match rule, however you will have a hard time finding a ref who will agree to a sixth match!

The tournament format has been changed to a 16 man bracket double elimination style tournament.  We will not have full wrestle backs.  Trophies will be awarded to the top 3 teams.
