Qualifiers for the first round are also available for review at https://khsaa.org/2022-2023-state-first-round-wrestling-entries-by-school/. 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.
