I think bub has a very valid point. Most of the wrestlers from my school, especially the upper weights do not wrestle year round. They wrestle to help themselves do better in other sports. I know my own son wrestles 215, but weighs around 208, butt naked. The coaches really wanted him to wrestle 189 because they had a heavier kid that could get down to 215, but not 189. He (and his parents) said no way. He also played football and throws shot and disc in track. He was not willing to sacrifice the weight because of the effect it would have on the other sports. I think there are lots of kids out there in the same boat. It would be great to add another weight or two between 215 and 275.
