That is not the committment that I am talking about. You might be able to change your weight class for subs right now but the committment I am talking about is the personal one that each wrestler makes early in the season.

I know my son decides sometime in January each year what weight he is going to wrestle at for the State tournament series. That early decision influences a lot of things most importantly the weight class of wrestlers that he competes against in preparation for State. I think there is a big difference for a kid on the 150 bubble wrestling other kids 140 to 150 all season then all of a sudden now being asked to wrestle 165 pound wrestlers. I think the rules were changed in the middle of the game here. If they had to change it should have been for the March 2005 year.
