Seeding Regionals - Significant Matches

[Bearhugger]

Regional seeding starts today and the word on the street is there are a lot of stellar records to sort through.

Some undefeated wrestler with ZERO significant matches on their 9-0 record could get the one seed while two battle tested, higher ranked wrestlers have to battle it out in the regional semifinals.

Good luck

Thanks Coach. I doubt there will be a problem after seeing all of this.

This is one reason why; with a Covid limited schedule, we made sure we prioritized matches against our fellow regional teams... may have limited “significant matches” but will help regional seeding.
