This is exactly why I wanted some input on the ammendment.

My thought process behind the 7 pound allowance is this: After Certification wrestlers are given a 2 pound allowance, so a 125 pound wrestler is actually weighing in at 127. Most wrestlers are still pulling 5 to 10 pounds to make the certified weight. By allowing an extra 5 pounds the wrestler is more likely to wrestle what they wrestled in High School, thus more of a Grand State Tournament.

This is not set in stone that is why I was asking for some opinions. Now that you know my reasoning....let me know what you think.

Also what does everyone think of adopting the Middle School weights for the 14U?
