G1A-4 Preview: Competitive district promises another tough race.
Kabra Wrestling Rankings are updated every week all season long for Kabra+ members.
Last season: Oviedo outperformed a fiercely competitive district with the Lions edging Winter Springs for the IBT title by just three points. Lake Mary finished 8.5 points back as this district proved to be deep.
How did Kabra do?: We were wrong. Really across the board we got this one wrong.

Last year’s region tournament results
Wrestlers to watch:
The favorite: Winter Springs. The Bears could bring back the most points from last year’s district tournament.
Team to watch: Oviedo. The defending district champions bring back a lot too and should compete for a title.
