oops, re-read your post and see you were just making a statement not asking who anyone thought would win state in this age/weight.
Yes, do agree that most of the time there is a great difference between being at the top and bottom of your age group.
At the bottom of the age group last year, our 7 year old (now 8)held his own but struggled to place. His little brother has wrestling birthday (that's what we call it!)in September and I do think it does have an advantage.
Hang in there! Next year will come soon enough :-)
