Default Best Wrestling in the Nation

What state now has the best high school wrestling in the country? Back when I was wrestling 10 years ago everybody said Pennsylvania. Any stats on the number of college AA's from each state where they went to high school?

California is only "good" because of their huge population... per capita, they are not nearly as impressive

Pennsylvania is still the best overall state. Depth wise, they can't be matched as of now.
