Thethunda190 Posted December 16, 2019 Report Share Posted December 16, 2019 What teams will be sending guys to Beast of the East this weekend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbg Posted December 16, 2019 Report Share Posted December 16, 2019 I have been told that McCallie will be at the Beast. It's difficult for both Tennessee teams and wrestlers to receive a high national ranking if they don't travel to compete against the best teams in the country. We all know that a Top 10 team is not going to travel south to compete in a Tennessee tournament. I know of a tournament director that was going to pay for hotel rooms if he could get 2 top 10 teams at his tournament and he had zero takers. The response was why do we want to travel 750+ miles when we can travel 100 miles and compete against the best teams in the country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On track it shows McCallie, Cleveland, and Greenville sending guys but I figured Baylor would be coming since TN private schools wouldn’t be able to compete at preps this year.

Baylor and Christian Brothers are going to KC Stampede this weekend. All 3 TN teams are only sending partial lineups to Beast. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any team can sign up for any tournament on track. You have to apply and be approved to get into Beast of the East. The only TN teams that are approved are McCallie and Greeneville. Both will send partial rosters and hopefully can make some noise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a scheduling issue with the calendar this year as everything is moved back a week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
