Will there be a 2nd place wrestle back at the girls' sectional? It could make a difference if there are sectionals that don't have any competitors and spots need to be filled.

Schedule on WIAA site doesn't even have 3rd place match let alone true 2nd.

Per the WIAA, they will not be using 2nd place finishers from sectionals to fill the brackets at state.

I was just notified that the WIAA will now be filling out the state brackets with alternates based on the state seeding criteria. This process is better explained on the video that is posted below.
