NOT ONE other state permits High School wrestlers to compete at Kids state. What that means is that every one of the comments that have been mentioned on this thread were found to be without merit in every single state except Kansas. We have a High School Division!
Just because other states do not have a High School Division, does not mean that the comments do not have merit.

The High School Division was created to allow High School wrestlers to continue wrestling for the love of the sport. It was not created to have an All Class Match Up. The High School Division was not created for the elite wrestlers, but this definately does not mean that they would be excluded. It is fun competition, mat time, and if two elite wrestlers end up wrestling at one or all three of these tournaments isn't that just a bonus. Anything that will allow kids to wrestle can not be considered bad, even if they are High School aged kids.
