The brackets are being reviewed by staff and will be released to the public as soon as possible. The random draw table is available for review on the KHSAA website at https://khsaa.org/2022-state-first-round-random-draw/ along with the roll-up table (https://khsaa.org/wrestling-random-rollup-table/) in case one of the top four wrestlers from a region is unable to compete as well as the fifth-place finisher from that region.

Qualifiers for the first round are also available for review at https://khsaa.org/2022-state-first-round-entry-by-school-and-region/. There are several student-athletes that were entered into Trackwrestling without their grade level included. Staff should be alerted of any spelling and grade level corrections by 12 p.m. (eastern) on Monday so corrected information can be shared with TeamIP for event merchandise.

Participating coaches are invited to join the KHSAA in a conference call that will take place on Tuesday, February 15th at 12:00 PM (ET). Details about joining these calls will be sent to participating coaches/athletic directors on Monday once the brackets are finalized.

The final rounds of the 2022 KHSAA State Wrestling Championships presented by UK HealthCare will take place Feb. 25-26 at George Rogers Clark HS in Winchester. A schedule for the event is available at https://khsaa.org/2022-state-wrestling-schedule/.
