STEVENS POINT, WI- The WIAA Board of Control voted 10-0 to move the Girls State Tournament to the Kohl Center in Madison and to wrestle it at the same time as the Boys Tournament. The change will start next season.
Also the board Voted to have a 16-competitor bracket to qualify for the girls State Individual Tournament.
A number of the changes impact the structure of the boys wrestling Tournament Series. One implements a super-regional format for the Divisions 2 and 3 tournaments. The format combines two regionals into one in both divisions. Similar to the format in Division 1, the top four individuals advance to sectionals and the top two teams move on to the team sectionals.
Another recommendation approved in wrestling alters the Tournament Series team format in Division 1. Beginning next season, the top two teams from each regional in Division 1 will advance to the team sectionals similar to the existing Divisions 2 and 3 team format.
