The reality of it is all of you bitching should ask your ADs or Coaches why they didn’t host it! Oh wait because nobody wants to host regionals because they don’t make any money off of the tournament and have to listen to everyone complain about it.

Or better yet tell them to convince the WIAA to get rid of the Regional format and go straight to state with the allocation each district is allotted and run 32 man brackets for both boys and girls.


5 mats would have been helpful but then someone would complain about one mat being in the back gym.

One actual helpful recommendation i would say is to run the boys on Friday and the Girls on Saturday all on 4 mats in and out.

You could run o e round for each tournament on Friday as well but then you’re making the athletes weigh in 2X.

Great job to Hanford for stepping up and running the tournament nobody wanted and congratulations to all the athletes that battled their way to the Tacoma Dome next weekend!
