A wrestler at the state tournament may compete only in his/her age group and in only one age group.

A wrestler with only one wrestler in his weight class can move up to the next available weight class as long as it is within USA regulations. The wrestler must notify the pairings officials at least one hour prior to the scheduled start time. Every effort should be made to inform the wrestler of the lack of competition available and of his/her right to move up a weight class.
