Now that the 2006 Cliff Keen KC Wrestling Classic is completed we are looking to 2007. We are preparing the list of interested teams for the 2007-2008 season. The exact tournament dates will be December 14 & 15, 2007. The 2006 tournament was won by Ponca City, Ok, the Oklahoma large class state champions the past 2 years. Second place was Colonial Forge, Va. The top 6 teams represented 5 states.
The tournament features 24 teams. The 2006 field came from 10 states, consisted of 24 individual state champions, 65 state medalists and 128 total state qualifiers. The tournament is a combination of pool and bracket with every wrestler in a full weight class getting 8 bouts over 2 days with 2 weigh-ins.
The tournament is held at the KCI Expo Center near Kansas City International Airport. This is the same venue that USA Wrestling has held the Cadet National Duals the past several years. The location is perfect with the airport and countless hotel rooms within a few blocks.
The competition committee will meet in a few weeks to decide which teams to invite to the 2007 tournament. Please let me know as soon as possible if you would like to be considered for a slot. We would love to add an Illinois team to the tournament.
