ghens,
I'm not sure I understand your last post. Ninth- graders would be wrestling with their high school teams from November to the end of February. Even if your school is under the junior high system (as opposed to middle school), those ninth-graders would/should be practicing with the high school. Thus they would not be eligible for kids until the coach releases them prior to regionals (if they are not on varsity), or after they are eliminated at regionals or following high school state. Thus there should be no ninth-graders wrestling kids right now unless they go to a school that does not offer wrestling at the high school.
