Ok,usually I just like to make 1 post and stir everything up up and watch the fun. And usually I agree with Beeson. but....
I started the kshsaa post because my 8th grade son had a high school placer that would be in his state bracket. That being said my son wrestled all high school kids and beat the said high school placer twice and took 3rd at bishop carroll. So that proves Mr. Beeson's point.
There is a rule in place that that allows weight changes at seeding meetings. People are allowed to move weights. They take advantage of this rule for their advantage. So how is this different Beeson? People changing weight up or down is just part of wrestling to use the rules to a wrestler's advantage. My son thought he could make 110lbs a few weeks ago but now he walks around at 122lbs. So, is he running by moving up from 14u 110lbs to 115lbs 14u? Look at both brackets and you tell me. Then tell me if it it is a good idea to call these kids roaches.
