[mscoach4]

In the final poll 64 out of the 84(14x6) wrestlers the coaches ranked as the top 6 in each weight class actually placed. 10 of the 14 top ranked wrestlers became the state champion and 3 champions were ranked #2. The only real darkhorse state champion was Hartley of St Albans who was ranked #4 in the final poll at 106. At the 160 pound class the top 6 state placers were in the exact order as the coaches ranked them.

I would say the coaches who vote do a Very good job ranking the wrestlers.

It’s results driven. There really isn’t a “vote” on the wrestlers. Coaches can offer feedback...which typically means match results that might dictate a modification
