49th ANNUAL NORTH CANTON HOLIDAY WRESTLING INVITATIONAL TOURNAMENT

  Taking place at Hoover H.S. (North Canton., OH) on Dec. 19-20, 2008

There will be no seeding meeting prior to the tournament.  Wrestlers will be placed on brackets based on the list of names submitted to  be considered for seed.  NOTE:  If a wrestler's name is submitted in a weight class and he does not make weight, he cannot move up to the next weight class and he will not wrestle.  If a seeded wrestler cannot compete (weight, illness, skin) the bracket may be redrawn.

Another wrestler from the same team will not be put in his position.  If a non-seeded wrestler cannot compete, a substitution from the same team (same weight) can be made or a bye will be put in that position.  ABSOLUTELY NO EXCEPTIONS!

Please refer to "SEEDING CRITERIA" under the Seeding Link to determine which wrestlers should be considered for seeding.

Eight (8) wrestlers will be seeded in each weight class.  The computer will place the remaining wrestlers randomly on the bracket.
