Wapakoneta went to Reno seeded 34th out of 78 teams, finishing 17th.
The wrestlers learned a lot about wrestling with top level competition. The different styles of" riding" seemed to be a biggie. It seemed almost "collegiate" .
Some of the boys were flying for the first time and experianced the sensation of "jet-lag" with the time differance. All told it was a good insight into the world of big tournaments.
