Kansas Wrestling Forums General Discussion High School Weight you can wrestle at in regionals

I here varying rules on what weight your allowed to wrestle at in regionals. How is it determined. For example if you certify at 152 can you wrestle 160? If you have 15 matches at 160 and 10 at 152 do you have to wrestle 160 even if you certified at 152? Just an example not real life just wondering how the rule works and I'm sure there are a lot of kids and coachs trying to look at this type of thing.

half of your weigh ins have to be at 152 for you to wrestle there so with the criteria you have there you can't wrestle 152.

like me. i have about 10 matches at 189 but 15 at 171 so i'll wrestle 171 at regionals.

Matches do not matter, only weigh-ins. If you certified at 152 and weighed in there half of the time you can wrestle 152. You may have been bumped a lot and have twice as many matches at 160, but if half your weigh-ins were at 152, then you can wrestle 152 at regionals.

Also, you can always go up. You may make 152 all year and wrestle all your matches there and then wrestle 160 at regionals.
