Can you please post the final brackets for boys and girls.
We will post them as soon as we get them, Mika.
Great tournament!
The new finals format went really well. The speed in which the wrestlers came up and wrestled
kept the flow going nicely. It seems almost unfair at how Peralta from Radford is simply the strongest wrestler that I’ve seen. I don’t see anyone even coming close to challenging her.
Too bad she’s the only varsity girls wrestler for Radford.
