Is it me or did Jesse look undersized?  He had to be wrestling up.  Surely he has not grown that much in the last few months.

Jesse has grown a lot in the last few months, but he also isn't dropping much for these recent tournaments, which is why he looks undersized.  

Side note the high school organization did not sign off on the middle schoolers wrestling in their event so they cancelled the showcase. Jesse will hopefully see Nick and Ryan at the VAC that same weekend.

15 years old is old for an average US 8th grader. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be for a lot of US 8th grade wrestler.  It's a part of the sport that I don't see changing.  Our sport would probably be better served if we just accept it and move on as opposed to point it out every time one of these "old for their grade" kids has some success.
