tcooper1454 Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 What is the rule on being able to be able to wrestle a certain weight class for sectionals? How many weigh ins do you have to have before the growth allowance to qualify for a specific weight class? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justadadnow Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 You must have 6 weighins BEFORE sectionals and one of those MUST be at the scratch weight, ie 103, 112, ect. I believe that you can weighin at scratch weight after the growth allowance, 103 when it's 105 ect., and it counts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Y2CJ41 Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 You need 5 qualifying weigh ins with one being at scratch and one being in jan. All of these must be done before the sectional seeding meeting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chambers Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 As justadadnow said you must have 6 before sectionals not 5. Here is the rule copied and pasted from the IHSAA website: The Regulation 1. All wrestlers must have a minimum of six (6) ?qualifying? weigh-ins prior to Monday, January 25, 2010 which is the Monday prior to the sectional and the day of the seeding meetings. The six (6) qualifying weigh-ins must occur between November 16, 2009 and January 25, 2010. Additionally, one of the six (6) qualifying weigh-ins must occur in the month of January 2010 and at least one (1) of the qualifying weigh-ins must be at scratch weight for the weight class the wrestler is entered into the IHSAA tournament series. A weigh-in at scratch weight is defined as a wrestler weighing in at or below the actual poundage of the weight class (i.e. ? a wrestler weighs in at 111.9 achieves a scratch weigh in for the 112 pound weight class) 2. A qualifying weigh-in occurs when a wrestler weighs in at or above his/her minimum weight for that date as determined by the individual wrestler?s weight management plan. As per IHSAA by-law 60-2.b, a weigh-in for a tournament shall count as one weigh-in toward the total of six (6). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
