If Barr, or anyone else in the field, declares he cannot go, since his team can’t replace him, would he be replaced by the next highest placer at his conference championship, an additional at large, or not be replaced at all?
I believe there's an alternate or two at every weight. If someone can't go, they slide everyone up and first alternate becomes 33rd seed. I also think there's a cutoff for this. Like the night before or 24 hours or something.
There is always one alternate per weight class. It is always released with the at-large selection. Which, funnily enough, just came out. This year's alternate at 197 is Luke Cochran of Central Michigan. No relation to Penn State's Lucas Cochran as far as I can tell even though, yes, they have virtually the same name and wrestle the same weight. What are the odds of that?

It must be my ignorance, but if given the chance to blindly guess who was No. 2 behind PA, I'm not sure I would have gone with California being tied with Ohio.
Flo has slightly different numbers:

Makes sense. I started wrestling in 3rd grade and it was pretty serious. That was over 50 years ago. I would think it’s the same way, or on steroids considering how specialized sports have become for kids.
