IMPORTANT NOTES:
Wrestlers must pre-register for the Rocky Mountain Nationals event. Absolutely no registrations will be accepted at weigh-ins. Wrestlers are expected to make their pre-registered weight class. If you do not make your pre-registered weight class, you may pay a "second-chance" registration fee. You will be added to the bracket only if there is a 'Bye' or a 'No Show'. If we are unable to re-bracket you, your re-bracket penalty fee will be refunded. The Bracketing Director reserves the right to refuse re-bracketing changes if they are a hindrance to the tournament start times. We are giving wrestlers a "second-chance" to wrestle, and it is a benefit to those wrestlers who may have traveled and not made the pre-registered weight. RMN encourages all WRESTLERS to MAKE THE WEIGHT!

RMN Recruiting Weekend
The Rocky Mountain Nationals is proud to continue an RMN Recruiting weekend! Now juniors and/or graduating seniors can become acquainted with up to 10 colleges offering wrestling programs. College recruiters will be present at this year’s Rocky Mountain Nationals, watching matches, speaking with wrestlers, etc. Each College will have a complimentary booth and will offer information about their program. This should prove very effective for more opportunities.
