They invite different wrestlers to run a practice or answer questions around lunch time 2 or 3 times per week. They've had Kyle Snyder, J'Den Cox, Anthony Ashnault, Joey McKenna, Jason Nolf, Bo Nickle, and tons of others on.
Thats great they are doing that. Thanks for the post.

I guarantee a significant number of the non-forfeits at 220/285 are kids who weigh 185-200 pounds.
I saw some small 220's at state.

Must make scratch in Indiana.

2 hours ago, wc1992 said:Yes the proposal that I saw also included girls weight classes. That was not voted upon yet just the proposal that I saw.
That would be a nice step forward even if all states are not sponsoring girls wrestling yet. I hated going to high school tournaments where the girls used the same weights as the boys in a girls division.
I am not a fan of the proposed lower weight changes on the boys side. I can live with the upper weight changes since many small schools can struggle to fill both 220 and 285.
Many big schools struggle filling weight classes. As you, I like them setting up weight classes for the girl/woman division. Good step in the right direction.

9 hours ago, grappler-of-old said:I understand the argument of growing the sport, but other sports don't add players to the starting line up.
Reducing to 13 wt. classes does 2 things.
1. Allows for an easy solution to the dual criteria, I know it won't solve every dual but most.
2. The most important is that it will reduce time spent at tourneys. The biggest complaint in wrestling is time. In an 8 team bracket (2 mats) tourney it takes away 12-13 matches. reducing tournament time by about 45 minutes. In an 16 man pool tourney (4 mats) it takes away 30 matches. This reduces the tourney as much as 1 1/2 hours.
Considering only 17 teams has a full team at Region (about 15%) this greatly outweighs the argument of growing the sport.
To truly grow the sport there needs to be more JV options available.
valid points

I wouldn't care if they change the weight classes. I just don't see any advantage in doing so. I've heard coaches over the many many years I've been involved in wrestling, Claim it will cut down on cutting weight. Not buying that. "14 weight classes only help so called big schools". Perhaps!! I don't think so. Good programs are just that, good programs. If it were up to me add the coveted 2lbs and go. 108,114 and so on. That's my 7 cent opinion inflation ya know.

Be sure to keep that near elbow pointed straight out. Creates great pressure. Keep opponents wrist tucked by his rib cage. Comes up to high it could become illegal.

halfhalfhalf got to give you props for your name. How many times have you been at a meet and turned around when someone yells that. Also great drills you threw out there.
Nike Man great ideas!! You put him through some rough drills.
I would throw in some shadow drills. action/reaction
Back to level change. This has become a lost art for most. I despise seeing kids diving for ankles and trying to work their way back to good position. Against quality opponents you won't recover from that shot. Great suggestions gentlemen

shy guys here

Who's being creative out there? What drills you guys doing? Anyone doing a cross fit type work out? Got to find something to do to keep you out of the fridge!!!!

Yes spent many hours there. Yes, Lou was ahead of his time, now that I think about it. We wrestled austria there. Had some good practices there as well. I wrestled your guy Gallagher at meet there as well as Trinity. I'm sure we hung out with some of your guys at meets. I'm just glad you remembered That Joilet tournament.
