Ahhhh... My second most favorite forum subject.

Its been awhile since I did the research but I believe the lightest 7 percentile of 18 (ave. senior) year old kids take up 4 weight classes in wrestling. 4 weight classes in the middle, (45, 52, 60, 70 - or you can shift that to 38 to 60) have 50%. Thats 7 times the potential wrestlers per class in the middle. How fair is that.

The way I see it, a 98 lb freshman has it made going against a 107 lb soph, that is compared to any 152 lber with 7 seniors ready to kick his a@#.

My solution - If I was king of the world I would remove a weight from the bottom 4, a weight from the top 4, and squeeze one more in the middle. 13 tough weights!
