Kansas Wrestling Forums General Discussion High School Jr. High and High School Prisoners

I totally agree with Mr. Furches. Here in Lawrence we have 7-8-9 grade junior highs. So kids can't wrestle for the high school until after their junior high season is over, which is Christmas time. No exceptions. Which means that they miss all of the pre-season high school coaching and about half of the season. It takes the high school coach about half of that to learn the kids name and correct some of the bad habits he picked up in junior high do to lack of competiion. We have had some pretty good wrestlers here in Lawrence basicly waste a year of their high school careers.
