raider coach- Your one to talk about grammar, you make no sense. "Our youth wrestling was going to high school to get you butt kicked by high school wrestlers." I'm waiting for explanation how two regional champs meet in the first round with a "push of a button." hahahahaha good joke! It would be fine to me if they could wrestleback for true second. Shady Grady.!

You'all need to go to basketball, even though your dribbling is coming out your mouths!!!! .........THE POP-TARTS ARE TOASTED!! Boo yah!!!

raidercoach- you gave me a lesson in grammar(not), I gave you a lesson in wrestling! Your defense of 10% rule is elementary at best. ANY "SYSTEM" THAT PITS TWO REGIONAL CHAMPS AGAINST EACH OTHER IN THE FIRST ROUND OF STATE IS JUNK AND VERY UNUSUAL! ......I might have a mic as in microphone in my ass, better than you with your head in yours!! You sound like a village elder in IRAQ with you shit talk!!! BAM!BAM!BAM!!MIC DROP!! POW!! Louisville, POTENTIALLY cutting weight is not your job. That's up to the PARENT!! YOUR point is invalid. JUNK TALK! Bam mic drop Nike man, my kids are grown. Probably older than you. I've been around the sport since the late 70's. Your useless in this topic!! Bam bam bam, mic drop!!!

Brilliant! Why don't you use them?? Makes to much sense?? Bam!! Tulsa Nationals is were I got it!bam!! Nuway is where I got it!bam!! you post USA weight classes! Why? you don't use them your not ahead of the curve!! Your being lapped. The lead is nearly out of reach! Your a lot newer to the sport or just a box of rocks. Quit drinking the cool-aid! Bam! Mic drop

GAMEFACE, point was safety, wrestling one div all year to be arbitrarily bumped to heavy division. The point of regionals is to qualify for state. Bumping one kid creates a dominoe effect, moving many kids up. Quit drinking the kool-aid and think for yourself. Bam mic drop!!

#1. With weight classes set at 3lbs for most of an age group, let's say 6u starting at 37,40,43,46,49,52,55,58,61 will always be closer percentage wise than the current 10% rule. Math is an exact science 2. You should have set weight classes so YOU CANT arbitrarily manipulate brackets. You have weight groups not classes. If you have a lot of entrants at certain weights then break them into multiple charts. Like the rest of the country! Eliminate the perception of any "funny business. A point YOU raised. #3. You got one thing right. You don't know me. #4. Wrong, I have no child wrestling. #5. Your delusion that your way is easier to bracket is ludicris. YOU DONT HAVE TO DO ANY ADJUSTMENTS TO ENSURE 2 kids from same reg don't meet in first round if you use standard weight classes. You hit a button and bam! Your done, no adjusting. The perception of "funny business" is reality when someone has to arbitrarily adjust brackets. Who decides how to move him here or her there? Arbitrary at the least!! 6. Success in the sport requires persistence. Your systemic failure is a reason to not persist. Have your numbers grown?lol 6. You talk out of both sides of your mouth when you say a kid who gets demoralized may be in the wrong sport....not tough enough?? Then you talk about having evenly matched brackets in competion(smells of manipulation). It's not you job to try to create parity in a weight division. Saying that implies "funny business" exist. 7. Having standard weight classes ensures fairness in comparable size. It's apparent to me there's people who love the power first and the best interest of every youth wrestler second! BAM....MIC DROP!!!!

Evidently you agree it encourages dropping out. I guess growing the sport in Ky. isn't a goal either.

Wrestler "A" weighs 49lbs, 10% rule allows him to wrestle opponents up to 4.9 lbs heavier. 53.9. Wrestling in most parts of the country you'll find weight classes for youth 46,49,52,55 etc. so somewhere else there is TWO weight classes between them resulting in less chance of injury. 10% is a lot of weight, imagine if High School used it, 119 vs 131. In youth wrestling there are many examples of kids being at the top of the weight class ALL year even regionals, then end up being the lightest at States, very unsafe. Explain how it's safer. How is Ky right on this and the whole world wrong?

It's called a cross-face, not a cross-throat!! Lol That would be a MMA hold. Seen many youths in the riding position reach across the throat. Waiting till they can't talk may be to late. If they're on the throat, it's illegal. Being able to talk is irrelevant.

LMAO....Your comment reflects your ignorance on the subject. Go bang your head on a wall then read the post again. Maybe your comprehension will improve!.....or have someone read it to you, it'll make it easier!! Make sure you listen very carefully. Have them read real slow!lol

#1from one reg against #4 from two regional, #2 from one region against #3 from region 2. See the 10% rule not only promotes injury and dropping out, it confuses the confused people who think it's a good thing!! #setweights

I seen on track wrestling were a young wrestler at reg was at the top of his weight class. Then the chart for state has him wrestling at the weight class where he is the lightest!. This is ONE problem with the 10% rule. Your 2 regionals have different weight classes because of the idiotic 10% rule so when you combine them at State tournament you end up with DIFFERENT WEIGHT CLASSES AS THE TWO REGIONALS. There is not one thing positive about the 10% rule. Demoralizing a youth regional champ who now has to move up a class is not enticing other youths to join. How long has Ky. been behind the rest of the country. #setweights
