You are not quite correct. A cadet is a modified Junior. Cadets can wrestle Juniors ONLY if they are in HS. Eighth graders cannot wrestle Juniors, if they do they forgo one of their later years in Juniors as you only get four years of Junior competition.

I am all about wrestling up and I would COMPLETELY support allowing a 14U 8th grader the opportunity to wrestle the HS division if they are willing and capable. This would completely satisfy your vision but not Beesons as he believes that it should be all about age. The other thing that could fix this is to go by the USA Wrestling age cutoff, Jan 1, 20XX. This would move almost all of the 14U HS kids now into the HS division. Once you move to HS you are NO LONGER in KIDS wrestling as far as I am concerned.

BTW, Have you gotten your facts straightened out on the triple crown?
