I like the Bergan pick too. They're playing well. What about Sandy Creek in C2-9?

Why South Loup is C-2 is beyond me. Frustrating.

Seven schools with an enrollment of 41. Three year tiebreaker, to me, is probably the best way you could have done it. Just the way it goes. Can't imagine Wahoo was thrilled moving to B, and same goes with Valentine/Fillmore Central/Bago in C1.

Why South Loup is C-2 is beyond me. Frustrating.

The subdistrict matchups are

I for the life of me will never understand the justification of how some of these schools get stuck in B when they are clearly a C level squad. 800 vs 165. Tell me thats beneficial to kids. Its just lazy on the part of the NSAA.

Yeah....there's quite a gap between the top and bottom of B in track.

Ryan Provence is going to Logan View.

When did Shelton open up?

He's a great dude. I wish him the best and prayers for his family.

Most district host sites now listed

The number of matches kids wrestle in a season now astounds me....man it has really shot up.

There were 21 wrestlers who were undefeated entering the state meet. Ten wrestlers didn’t complete their run. That may be the highest percentage ever of wrestlers not being able to complete their season undefeated.

Prayers to him and his family during this time. I know he brought stability back to Neumann and is a great coach. Hopefully they will be able to find that with their next hire.

What if instead of every team qualifying for post-season play, it was set up more like football playoffs where only a set number of teams made the post-season? Just throwing it out there, but what about taking the top 32 teams in power points in our class C and D classes, seed them as such, then re-seed after that first round of games? Seems to me that would improve the competition for the most part in the smaller classes so we aren't seeing running clock blowouts or teams risking injury against an inferior opponent that is at the bottom of the class in wins/points?

I like the fact that every team has a chance in the postseason. It makes cinderella runs, while rare, fun. And typically the cream rises to the top and we get the best teams to Lincoln.
