Question about 98 pounds for Girls State

[Hirsej01]

This maybe a dumb question, but  How do the girls get a scratch weigh for 98 pounds, if no tournament is having 98?

Do the girls get the 2 pounds on Jan first? so is it 100? 

 

Thanks in advance.

As I understand it, you should hit scratch 98 weight once. That can be at a girls tournament (hint: notify organizer that you'll be going "106A"), a dual or drop in at a boys dual but don't wrestle or call a ref for a special weigh in. After Xmas 98 can go 100. Understand also that I am stupid and this is my simplistic understanding of how to make this work.

You can make the weight any time, it doesn't have to be an official weight class. The weigh-in just needs to be at 98.0 or less AND be a "green" weigh-in.

 

You can do it after Christmas, but would still need to make 98.0 before the regionals and NOT at the regional.
