Leave it the way it is. Before this High School division was created the only option available to freshman 14 & Unders was to wrestle their age division. It didn't matter whether they were a high school state placer or not.

I like that they have an option to go up to the high school division, but it shouldn't be a requirement. If it keeps them wrestling for an extra month who cares if they are in the 14 & Under division? For the record I have seen several freshman high school state placers come back and end up getting beat by an 8th grader over the years.
