wrestlemom,
Given the choice between OK and KS in which to educate my child in a public school system, I'll take KS any day! If you look at the results of KS wrestlers on a national level at the high school level, we compete very well per capita. Especially considering KS has only in recent years embraced freestyle/greco wrestling.
I assure you, that while some KSHSAA rules seem to hinder athletic development, they were written for a good reasons, most of which are still valid today.
