Doug747 - The Elite Athletes represent such a tiny tiny percent of the population of any activity. But if we continue to lose participants, the Elite Athlete will not have anyone to practice with or come and watch them wrestle. I just can not believe you smart individuals can not grasp the concept that the trophy hunt needs to stop for the real young ones in our sport. "It is not hurting my son" I hear that crap from some - pretty sad - your son is not the only one being affected by the policies and plan in place. Wrestling is graduating college athletes with declining opportunities for them to give back to the sport - keep doing what your doing - history is being made - records are being set - declining numbers continue. To even have this debate with other adults leading these young kids - I am at a loss for words _____________ -
