***Carolina Invitational Qualifier***
Dear Coach,
The Hillcrest High School wrestling program is looking forward to what I’m sure will be an exciting season. The following information is about the JV/Middle School tournament that we discussed by phone or e-mail.
Hillcrest is planning to host a JV/Middle School tournament this upcoming season on Saturday, December 20th. The tournament format will be an individual round robin and a running bracket in larger weight classes. The weight classes will be those determined by the Carolina Invitational committee because this tournament will be a qualifier for the Carolina Invitational. We believe that our format will allow us to get every wrestler at least two matches, with a max of five.
One important aspect of the tournament will be bracketing the weight classes the morning of the tournament. This should reduce the large number of forfeits typically at JV/MS Tournaments due to no-shows. Since we are doing this, please try and have your list of wrestlers present and ready to compete to the Tournament Director by 8:30 AM. We know every team will have some no-shows, we just want you to get here early enough for us to make corrections and changes.
Other Information includes: Weigh-in (MS and JV) 7:30-8:45 Start Time- 9:00
Divisions- Middle School (7-8) and JV (9-10)
Match Time- 3 90 second periods
Awards- First, Second, and Third place individual awards
Cost- $7 per wrestler. Please make checks out to Hillcrest High Wrestling Booster Club. Any wrestler in the bracket Saturday morning will have to be paid for by the team.
