I don't have to look at the brackets to know that you guys moved into a tougher bracket, I know the weight and ages well. I still stand by my roaches comment. Now with that said, if you are not a roach and not running from competition the comment was not about you or your kid. My comment is for those who did run from competition, and there were alot more that ran to easier brackets than jumped into tougher.
There is a rule that allows the roaches to move. The rule was put into place to allow for growth of a wrestler, if the wrestler was accidentally put in the wrong weight or the wrong age group, or if a wrestler was accidentally not signed up. The rule for the most part is now being taken advantage of by Roaches. I would be all for allowing kids to move for these reasons, but to do this the State needs to stop posting the entrants before the seeding meetings. Make the deadline the friday before the seeding meeting. They sign up friday and seed Sunday without looking at the brackets.
