This comment "There are many kids in this weight bracket that are doing well this year and they ALL deserve the same recognition and respect at the matches. Parents should not be knocking other wrestlers and saying how their child is so much better, things can always turn around!!" is directed towards comments that were made at the Manhattan tournament that involved some of the wrestlers mentioned here by a particular parent in these weight brackets and it was upsetting to see a parent behave this way. My son was knocked to our own club coaches and I had to explain to him why a mother would say things about him to his coaches. Sorry for not explaining this better in my post...just frustrated.
