We definitely enjoyed the Friday Night Tournament. It went a little late but there was a great crowd! Really enjoyed having a free Saturday

A few things: 1. The Girls State Finals @ Kokomo were great!! The finals we awesome and they were done right.........great job!! 2. It's a lot of fun to see how much our girls are improving in the state of Indiana!!! The quality of our girls wrestlers continues to grow, and evidence of this was on full display on Friday night in Kokomo 3. I had heard rumors while we were there that there is consideration going into eliminating the 88 and 98 lb girls weights. I hope that this is not the case. The lightest collegiate girls weight class is 101. If we eliminated those 2 classes our lightest girls weight would be 106. Can you imagine if it were this way on the boys side of things? The lightest collegiate boys weight class is 125 lbs..........what if the lightest high school boys weight was 132? Crazy. Also, 88, 182, 195, 220, and 285 were not full brackets. 98 was full. I've heard no conversations of eliminating any of the upper weight classes. 4. There was also talk of going to 4 regionals throughout the state, with the top 4 from each regional advancing to state. 5. Has there been any conversation of moving to a Saturday? Just a few of my observations, opinions and questions.......feel free to comment or share 3. Is there

Correct. It is my understanding that they are published every 2 years for reclassification purposes in order for the IHSAA to assign new host sites if needed. It is also my understanding that updated enrollment figures are released every year. Host site realignment is not a concern for the IHSWCA Team State tournament. It seems logical to use up to date enrollment figures, yearly, since they are available.

Correct

My Atheltic Director told me that new enrollment numbers are published every year. Why wouldn't we use current enrollment every year?

Will this year's enrollment numbers be used in the reclassification?

I hope everyone noticed/recognizes that weigh ins are scheduled for 4:00 this year and wrestling starts at 5. This is a change from previous years.
