If you have a problem with your kids starving for twelve hours, then don.t make him starve. Put him in an appropriate weight class. Why would we cater to the losers, the winners are watching their weight all day too. Over the years we have done this several ways in KS and I like the way it is done now. I don't particularly care how IOWA does it. Clearly, your idea of having two rounds of consolations on friday would move the semis to saturday. Bad move. By the way I thought everyone at the state tourney on both days were fighting for a medal. If there are wrestlers going for any other reason, maybe they should not go. The reason the concept is narrow minded, is because you are thinking only of the first round wrestlers who don't control their weight very well, rather than the parents, winners, coaches, fans, or what is best for the excitement of the team race or the atmosphere of high school wrestlers.
