Mostly Missouri and Kansas, but also many Iowa and Illinois kids with some New Mexico, Texas, a few others.

The officiating was very good IMO. The table workers were tired and very human, but the officials did a good job keeping them on track. The tourney ran excellent. The brackets I was watching had 25+ quality kids.

Individually, Keith Surber impressed me taking it to Nick Sand(Iowa)14-0 in the semis. Keith's only close match was with Case Garrison Texas (3-0) who ended up taking 3rd over Sand it OT on a figure four to the head call. Keith pinned his kid in the 125 final.

At 119 unseeded freshman Zane Richards worked his way through a loaded bracket, and had an awesome match with Alan Waters in the final. Zane lost 5-3 I believe, even though the bracket result says 7-1. He really did look good. Waters is so smooth and small, he weighed in at 113. I think Illinois had 10 kids there.
Surber CHAMPION 125
Richards RUNNER UP 119
Michael Pixley Jr. High Div. 103- 3rd place
Chance Davidson - 4th 119 (lost 3rd place match 4-2)
The others all won matches but DNP
Salas (wrestled up in HS 103, his losses were close matches, I believe he went 3-2), Alex Butler went 2-2(130), Coy Davidson (119) went 1-2, losing to the 5th and 6th place finshers 5-2 and 5-1. Max Nutt(145), Courtland Rautio(112)- Court had some great matches, didn't cut any weight, was small at 112.

I recommend this tourney.
