That's not the reason!
Last year we had kids wrestling 285 that only weighed 220 pounds.
According to the rules you can not have more then a 35 pound weight difference in the HS level. That is why they added the 250 pound class. Last year some kids almost didn't Get to wrestle due to this rule/issue.
It was thought that some districts may have just entered the weight class and therefore this rule was unable to be enforced.
It was enforced at some and not at others.
I know these kids are used to HS weighing 235 and wrestling 285.
But at the kids state you have to with in (not your weight class) but the acceptable weight varience!
