powerhalf 0 Report post Posted February 2, 2009 Should their be a extra weight allowance given at Middle School State due to fact schools have been closed and teams haven't been practicing. School is still out in many counties. I would hope this is being considered by the KYSWA. A extra pound or two would be great. What does everyone think?

dagger 7 Report post Posted February 2, 2009 Kids have plenty of time to make weight. The ice has melted off of the roads and i am sure you will be able to practice this week. We probably wont be in school all week and our wrestlers know they have to manage their weight and work out anyway they can.So no i don't think they should be given a weight allowance.

Assessor 0 Report post Posted February 3, 2009 I know this is middle school but NWCA guidelines say if any team is not in school the day before the meet because of weather then a 1 lb allowance should be given. Also if a meet is postponed because of weather for 1 day you may give 1 lb. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Regrettable maybe others kids, coaches and parents will learn from your son's experience of cutting to much weigh and not being at his best. Maybe he should have just wrestled up a weigh class and his talent would have been enough to get him to state; especially if he had only lost twice all year :-o.

If you let your middle schooler drop 10 lbs in 3 days to make weight you need a social worker visit. It's middle school MOMMA! No wonder he lost. In all my years of wrestling, your excuse for junior losing is the worst I've heard. Yes, it caused me to laugh out loud. Secondly, quit yelling when you type MOMMA. Do you write in capitals because every word you type is that important? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Buckeye 20 Report post Posted February 3, 2009 Honestly ipea, if that's the worst you have ever heard than you must have spent all of your years of wrestling in a nut shell! Or maybe it was the OHSAA bylaws you so diligently study that has kept you from hearing anything worse than that.

mommaofthe beast 0 Report post Posted February 3, 2009 First of all when a 12 yr old is 5'9 and 160 pounds it's hard to keep him within the weight guide lines he has grown 4 inches since the beginning of school and he has had to wrestle up both in the 165 and 185 weight class he was undefeated in both It was not possible for him to wrestle up a weight class at regionals since we already had a boy in the 165 who had a great season and neither I nor the coach thought it would be fair to move him up and knock another child out of a spot So what ever you may think of me or my motives my son chose to lose the weight and unfortunately it back fired on him Rest assured he will be better prepared next year and I don't see him having any trouble winning regionals and placing very high in state And as far as the name change suggestion well opinions are like a-holes everyone has one and yours stinks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are you agreeing with Momma? It sounds like her son was anything BUT pretty near his weight. Let's get real people. Middle school aged kids should not be cutting 10 lbs in 3 days. Shame on any coach or parent that would allow this. Cutting weight at that age could seriously stunt "the beast's" growth. Look at what happened to this guy when his parents allowed him to cut 10 lbs in 3 days:http://c.myspace.com/Groups/00007/73/18/7968137_l.jpg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

trithis 34 Report post Posted February 3, 2009 Doesn't middle school allow 2 wretlers per weight class. He should have been able to wrestle without cutting weight if there were not more than 1 other wrestler on his team that he couldn't beat in that weight class. Just a thought.
