I'll make it simple for you at 14U it's not the same because

1) we don't get to wrestle the freshman until just before districts at the earliest that doesn't happen in any other age group

2) the freshman practice 5 days a week, with better partners that span a 4 year time frame in age (think I already said that one) also doesn't happen for any other age group

the 14U phenomena is a byproduct of another instance where KS does something the states surrounding them don't do and then we sit back and say why is everyone around us better?
