So if your son is a state placer, or state champion, his freshman year, after wrestling kids from FRosh to Senior all thru the HS season, you will still put him in 14u, because he is young for his class?

I'll put the bad birthday excuse right up there with the ref screwed me excuse............QUIT giving our kids excuses, and start giving them the tools........
You have to look at matches against older, better kids as opportunities, not as a negative thing........
Every time a tough problem comes up at work, do we want our kids trained to demote themselves to a lower level so they don't have to deal with that problem?
