I think we all have been around enough wrestling that we have all been at a tournament that had open spots, and teams without a full roster. So is every weight 100% full?

It's not that anyone is trying to eliminate the smaller weights, they are only suggesting widing the opportunities for the bigger boys. And yes we all know of kids who drop out because someone on the team is a little better and they don't want to wrestle JV their Junior or Senior years (This happens at ALL weights)and I applaud the ones who remain on the team to support others. I ask you is that fair. And by aswering yes, do you agree that all High School Sports should be limited to only the top person at any given position: Football only the starting 22 positions be able to compete, Basketball only the top 5, and in track you can only let your #1 person be the one that is eligible to compete at a Track Meet? I know thats far fetched, but this is how a kid who has the talent to be a State Placer must feel if he happens to be on the same team as two #1 placers and his inability to stay small is being punished because of the larger seperation at the bigger weights.

Going into Regionals / State it sounds good to open the door for 2 kids at the same weight allowing those kids who might place 2nd at State but is on the same team as the #1 kid.
