Favorite bracket of all time?

[Ragu 75]

My favorite bracket of all time is 2015 NYS D1 106lbs. Features 2 semifinals of 4 nationally ranked wrestlers at the time. Jacori Teemer collected his second state title. He hit the nastiest leg cradle in his semifinal match. Was insane to see.

Whatever bracket Kolat was in when he was in the 1/4s up by 14 after the first period. Other kid's choice, ref asked him what he wanted. "I want to be in another bracket"!
