I moved to Lincoln after I graduated and i see a lot of recruiting of hs players in football & basketball to parochial schools, so the comments on skutt is not surprising. Yeah, B is usually pretty nasty...The Boys Town Invite is basically the state tournament. If you place at that invite you are probably placing at state. Quote Link to comment

They are just okay now...but it was just the teams that they hosted for the invite. Gross (they were so good) Skutt Underwood (Iowa) Gretna Wahoo It was stacked. Quote Link to comment

You also had Aurora, Tekamah-Herman, Missouri Valley, IA always had a few good kids, Central was always decent. Quote Link to comment

And yes...everyone called it a meat grinder...when I was coaching at BT we always said "Place here and you will place at state" it was brutal. I can still remember Skutt coming in their first year...they got tore up...next year...they dominated. Quote Link to comment
Nebfanatic Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Eastern Nebraska folk. How about the Chadron Invite! Quote Link to comment
MyBloodIsRed16 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Why is there a class tournament in wrestling? I know there are teams but it's pretty much an individual sport. Quote Link to comment

Well...16 seeds per class...I suppose if they didn't do that it with classes you would end up with like 80 (or more) kids in one bracket. 1 Quote Link to comment

Lol Lining up a Wisconsin OV in June and the Badgers are now recruiting him as a DL, which isn't an issue since he told their staff that he was open to it. Quote Link to comment

Smaller schools usually don't have a complete team. Not necessarily true, I coached class D and A wrestling. Class A probably has more top end wrestlers overall, but they don't usually have the depth of wrestlers. Every year in class A there are probably 3-4 kids in every Wt class that have no business qualifying for state. They are average wrestlers at best. No such thing in the lower classes it is a dog fight in every district just to make it to state. 2 Quote Link to comment
