The Zebra Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 Two different groups of weight classes. Which one do you think is best for our state, or should we just leave it alone. I’m all for the way it is, but here are the two groups. 14 weights 1.) 106, 113, 120, 126, 132, 138, 145, 152, 160, 170, 182, 195, 220, and 285. 13 weights 2.) 106, 113, 120, 126, 132, 138, 145, 152, 160, 172, 189, 215, and 285.

If this Faulkens Gentleman (I’m assuming he makes the rules) says we are staying at 14, does that mean the present 14, or the new 14 in 23’-24’?

Robert Faulkens is the assistant commissioner for the IHSAA in charge of wrestling. He said we will stay on the present 14 until 23'-24' and then change to the new 14 NFHS weight classes.

You guys have seen 220 lbers and heavyweights wrestle, right? I'd rather have 138 and 139 as separate weight classes.
