The issue being brought is that over the years that have been state placers, and even state champs as freshmen, that have wrestled the 14u division at kids state, instead of wrestling HS division. Some of us are of the opinion they should wrestle the HS division, as they have already proven they are capable of beating all comers at the HS division during HS season, and that it is actually a step down in competition, in most cases, to go 14u.

But you also get into the debate of "at what point should they be "required" to wrestle HS?" HS State qualifier? Lucas Baker would say that isn't enough. HS State Placer? HS State Champ?
