State Wrap Up - Episode 11: The Georgia Bracket Breakers 4A-7A
A bracket breaker is defined differently for different states and sometimes differently by classification in the same state. Mostly it comes down to how large the bracket is as to what defines a bracket breaker and where they finish. So read each state first to understand how I have chosen to define it. Broadly speaking … it is a wrestler that comes in under the radar and goes on to win matches they either “shouldn’t” win (according to their previous weeks finish).
In Georgia - we selected the bracket breakers as those wrestlers that finished 3rd in their Area and made the podium at the state tournament.
