Everyone will benefit from this, even if you don't plan to wrestle any freestyle. This training will make you a better folkstyle wrestler.

If this weren't the same weekend as our dual team qualifier, I would probably bring a few kids.

This is women's folkstyle nationals, & U23 Freestyle

Great opportunity for anyone wanting to go to Fargo.

Like I stated before. It's an internal issue. Better coaching, better youth programs, the list goes on. Besides, wrestling is an individual sport, as well as a team sport. You don't have to have 14 wrestlers to wrestle. You can wrestle with only 1 wrestler. You're basing your argument now on dual competition, the state association doesn't recognize a dual team champion. What they do offer is the possibility that every single wrestler that laces up rather it be on a team of 1 or a team of 50 can be a state champion!!

That's an internal problem, not a state or national problem. Changing everything because a few can't win is a foolhardy notion.

Were not talking just Kentucky. We never are. This would come from the NFHS. And even if we were only talking Kentucky. The 32 man bracket at the state tournament is to big yet there is never a bye in the first round in any of the 14 weight classes. So if you eliminate even 1 weight class, you eliminate that many competitors that get to wrestle at the state tournament. Think about how that would affect the sport nationally.

Why is everyone assuming that aligning with college weights is the correct answer. I would ask the following. Is there that big of a problem with transition from high school to college in weight class? Seems like there are a significant amount of freshmen that challenge for college championships at all levels. Is there a problem with 14 weight classes? If there is, you would have to make a lagitament argument as to why. For every team that doesn't fill a weight class, there is at least 1 team that is 2 or more deep. Are you assuming every kid that wrestles in high school will go on to wrestle in college? I know that there are high level wrestlers across the country that win big tournaments that have 0 intention of wrestling in college. There is really no need to limit the ability of any kid to participate. If weight classes are eliminated, that is exactly what the result will be. Adjustments possibly, but not elimination.
