Phillips is like 3rd now behind Storley and Akui. Storley won Fargo with a fairly controlled win over Sulzer, has done pretty much everything he can. Meanwhile, Phillips hasn't been competing at national events, so the rankers passed him.

McCauley wrestled (and won MN State Tournament) in 7th and 8th Grade..

A few states (mich, ga) have monster #s of matches each year so its possible to do it in four but more likely its a state that allows middle school ids to wrestle on a HS team.

Of all these matches, I'm most excited to see if Tessari gets revenge on Henderson.

I know that Nevada does not have a match count limit, along with some other states. The last two years I had an assistant coach who used to coach in Nevada and he had an award that he gave every year to anyone that had more than 200, 225, and 250 wins. It is amazing to compare that to a State like Washington where kids only get 33 matches before the post season--which is actually an increase over what it was a couple of years ago.
