It is fine the way it is. Over half of the high school kids jump up in weight and do not compete at their high school weight. I think keeping it an age thing is the best way to do it. Some (a few) 8th graders are older than the freshman. It is time for them to step it up an get a taste of high school wrestling. Not that many freshman wrestle on varsity (except some of the lighter weights. Those kids that wrestled 103 or 112 tend to jump up 1 or 2 weights for subdistricts. Leave it the same.
