The weigh in rule for this year's senior nationals has changed.
There is a 3lb. allowance, but the weight class that you wrestle must be the weight class or higher that you wrestled in your state tournament or dual state tournament. You may wrestle at a higher weight class, but not at a lower one.
The senior national tournament has become so competitive that wrestlers were dropping weight classes to compete in it. The issue was becoming dangerous.

I agree! This change while controversial, was needed.
