Just for arguments sake try to consider this scenario from an entire cross section of the situation. 1) most of the time arguments like this are based on the assumption of a kid being what you would consider to old for the grade. Not fact. 2) for every kid that is winning matches in this scenario, there is at least 1 that isn't winning many matches at all even against what you would consider younger competitors. 3) some kids are just more athletic, more dedicated, better at learning and applying, more coordinated, better coached...the list goes on. 4) age doesn't directly translate to winning. Just the same as cutting weight or being ranked higher. Something to keep in mind when arguing this is no arguments are going to change your team or individual success. When my oldest son was a freshman high school, we were considering wrestling at college open tournaments starting in his sophomore year. After his freshman year, the NCAA banned competitors that were enrolled in high school or younger from competing in these open events. The reason for this is because a kid that was enrolled in the 8th grade won one of these open tournaments. That is fact. The moral to this story is that all wrestlers are NOT created equal. Some are just better. And age has less to do with it than you are comfortable admitting. Be careful stabbing into the dark. You may not hit what you think you are stabbing at.

Just another soical justice view fact and rules be dam.

What a clown and who only pushes hate. Get in the wrestling room and close your mouth and get better.

That an insane post. If you win a state champinship it a always something to be proud of no matter the age or level. To try to say any different seems to imply just pass out awards to evrey child who care which kids is the best on that give day.

Seems to me you just want to cry and complain. The facts do not support you in any way. Facts is KHSAA has August 1 before 19 year of age 15 years who turn 15 after August 1st are at the right age to be in middle school. Sad that haters just push hate.

Tell me some "badass" tournaments you like for JC to go to? I am not aware of any tournaments as good as the WSAZ and National Guard in KY other then the state. Since you are so unaware of JC skill wrestlers and need to have the records I have put them in track for you. No not really just had to get them in for WSAZ, but wanted you to fell big so I give you the credit. (seems like you need it).

What is the r"right age" for middle school? It it what you thing the age should be or the limits set by KHSAA?
