Mr. Mann:

As you will recall, this issue was introduced the previous legislative session.

I followed the legislation closely and first believed KSHSAA would relax their rules for all athletes following passage of the bill. After KSHSAA's failure to respond accordingly, I was seriously considering participating in another legal challenge to the KSHSAA rules based on discriminatory treatment of favored athletes (swimming) over the less fortunate (wrestlers). However my past participation in a legal challenge to KSHSAA rules still pains me and, inasmuch as I no longer have a child involved in high school athletics and no dog in the hunt, concluded I have more important endeavors to pursue.
