I don't say that. You have to learn to ignore stuff like that. There are different divisions for a reason.
Its like NCAA D1, D2, D3 and NAIA. All have a place and all are great accomplishments. No need to hate.
Let the speculation begin. Straight up according to results. No flipping or bumping.

I think DubStat has a feature that can do predictions.
Math #3 would be more like 10-4 or 9-5 at worst.
As a retired official/coach that began in the 70's this would be a terrible decision. There was a time when D-3 was pretty much disrespected (like an illegitimate brother). Thank goodness the pendulum swung to give them their deserved respect. With the sad state of sectionals today I couldn't imagine the lack of competition we'd see if we went to four divisions. Watered down wouldn't be a good enough descriptor. LOL!! IF anything, they should go to two divisions. Sectionals would go back to being competitive.

Word from someone VERY high up in the food chain is that there is zero way to justify 4 divisions unless the male population suddenly increases. While he said a case could be made for making it 2 divisions, that is not likely at all.
Why are we looking at who is better,these kids wrestle each other all season long the point that needs to be addressed is we have 3 divisions that all wrestle at the same state tournament together and once your a state champion you are a champion
What would be the fun in that?
Heck yea. AA and AAA were placing 6 at St. John's, A was placing 4 at the local college gym.
Match 3 might be 12-2 with only 190 and 215 going D2
Cramblett already beat #1 and #2 in D1. So that is at least 11-3.

If you remember, up until ‘89, the numbers for the three divisions weren’t even like they are now.
Ex : let’s say today there are 600 schools that have wrestling. They are divided up evenly by enrollment with @ 200 schools in each division.
Back in the late 70’s and 80’s, if there were 600 schools with wrestling, top 250 were “AAA”, next 250 were “AA”, and bottom 100 were “A”.
That was why “A” brackets were 8-man and only gave awards to top 4.
And on top of that, follow the leader to wrestle for third if you lost in any division/class.
Barbaric!!!
