It’s because coaches may not know the path. They also may not care about the next steps for their state champ. There are obvious inroads to Menlo, and NIC but can’t believe more are not making it to more established programs at better academic schools.
Some Washington kids have made it to Stanford, Bakersfield, U of Chicago, UC Humboldt. No doubt these kids had some solid guidance to get there, in addition to their wrestling.
Too bad the coaches at the powerhouse schools don’t make the contacts at the better Div 1 schools. Just because the coaches don’t know about Washington kids doesn’t mean they don’t want them. They just don’t know yet.
