We are talking about a KBA tournament here. This is not a state tournament. It is an OPEN tournament which means ANY team can enter (that follows the rules). To be a true state tournament it would need to have the best teams from Western Kentucky and Louisville in the tourney. I was not there, but I have been in the past and most of the teams tend to be from Eastern Kentucky. Kentucky has more Middle School champions than professional boxing.

I see your point however, If it is as you say an open tournament then the best teams from western ky and louisville have the opportunity to participate,secondly, there were teams from western ky and louisville (check brackets) third teams from eky have won tournaments in louisville this year. A true state champion, no, however if you choose not to play don't blame the winners.
