I know I would have been in a lot less trouble had I been "encouraged" to wrestle kids' series after HS season, and especially FS GR in the summer. I couldn't even tellyou if they had such a thing back in the early to mid eighties.

The way the Senior Nationals was scheduled this year, I was surprised at how few Seniors were wrestling the kids' series this year. What better way to stay in wrestling shape, and sharp, for the senior nationals, Iowa Folkstyel nationals, Brute, etc.......

This isn't politically correct either, but we do have a problem with kids that don't understand that to get better, they have to wrestle better kids, and some of them that were able to sneak onto the podium at HS state, didn't want to take a chance at getting their tails handed to them, and just "ended on a high note" for the year.
