I disagree with any change in the weights. I don't see any reason to eliminate weight classes. The most obvious weight class to eliminate would be 215, and that would force a lot of athletes to cut some real serious weight, or to wrestle people that outweigh them by possibly 80+ pounds. To eliminate another weight class one in the middle weights would probably be cut which makes no sense because that is where the majority of your wrestlers are statistically speaking. The weight classes are good how they are. The last time they were messed with was a disaster, only lasting 1 year in Kansas. One positive that came out of it was the creation of 215, but I don't see any reason to cut down to 12 classes. All it would do is eliminate opportunities for some wrestlers.
