Re: Change Rules on Dual Meets Counting as Weigh Ins

I disagree with you. I think we have enough weigh in points as it is. I think if you did that the better teams would try to wrestle at least one every week. Then the teams that couldn't afford to do that would complain that it was unfair. Maybe wrestle better teams to make your team better and be mo...

Re: Just wondering

1. If you are a middle school coach you are not suppose to coach youth wrestling.
2. If you are a HS coach you are not suppose to coach middle school.
If you are a middle school coach you can coach HS. Basically you can coach up one but not down. Supposedly this is for recruiting rules ?
