Some really poor seedings for the Willochell brothers in particular. How does Rathjen get a higher seed over Gabe only wrestling 11 matches and not even having a RPI?

I see nothing egregious. Want a better seed, win more matches during the regular season. Want to go to the NCAAs, win the matches at the Big 12s.
What is pretty unique is that Jax Forrest is a #1 seed. He was in high school until January... How cool is that?!? That has to be unprecedented.

He also lost to the guy from Cal Baptist...
If he wanted a better seed at the Big 12s, probably should have beat that guy to ensure being seeded over him (instead of #7 and #8 behind him).
Come on man. There is nothing egregious. Go out and win matches at the Big 12s. It is that simple.

PS - Gabe Willochell's draw is actually awesome for him. He will likely face the #1 seed in his first match. A #1 seed that is only 10-5 and is ranked a relatively low #9 in intermat's rankings and who does have a first round match.
So Willochell likely has a bye into a very beatable #1 seeded wrester to make the semi-finals. He wins that match and he goes to the NCAAs. Seems to be a pretty damn good draw to me.

The willowchell seedlings seem low to me too, but I have not dug into the head to head conference records
