Does anyone know the seeding criteria for Region 5?

Does anyone know the seeding criteria for Region 5?

Your son will be number one due to his head to head, state appearance, record, tournament medals, common opponents and his good name.

Common Opponent

Like I said earlier this might change tommorrow during the meeting. That all depends on the other coaches and their willingness to agree on criteria.

A curiosity question: Why "may/will change tomorrow"? Are criteria not honored from season to season? Should criteria that need amending not be amended a year in advance? A danger in amending during the seeding meeting of the current tournament is that the amendment may be presented, argued, and adjusted just to favor a particular circumstance.

 

Advice: If the order is felt to need tweeking, live with it for the current tournament, then put it into effect for next year. That way you insure that the system is not being manipulated just to give advantage to a given wrester's or given wrestlers' circumstance(s) this season.

Thank you for the advice. This is the current criteria that we have used in years past, so I posted it this morning. I stated that this may/will change during the meeting because I do not have that criteria sitting infront of me as we speak, so I didn't want to post something and have viewers believe that the criteria is in stone. I did not intend to open the floor to discussion on criteria, but rather just try to state the most obvious criteria.

Don't forget the last criteria,

Clint, And a lot of fathers had the privilege of having you officiate their matches.

Clint, I need you to validate a rumor.

 

I heard your first state tournament to officiatewas actually in Illinois, between Abe Lincoln and somebody. You told him he had no future in wrestling so he ran for public office?

 

That true?

If seeding meetings were tonight, when will the preliminary brackets be posted? We are all dying to see where the guys are in the brackets.
