Whatever ranking you’ve seen a kid at, doesn’t matter or factor into seeding for the state tournament.

Bottom of page two: https://assets.wiaa.com/results/wrestling/2025/2025WrestlingPostseasonSOPs.pdf

What does matter is after criteria is scored and seeds are assigned the appropriate seed needs to match the bracket placement. 1v32 at top 2v31 at bottom 3v30 same side as 2seed 4v29 same side as 1seed.

After seeding is determined, it doesn’t appear there is any further criteria to split certain wrestler like years past since there is no regionals.

Best wishes to all at state.
