I know that there is a minimum number of weigh-ins you have to have at a certain weight to wrestle that weight in regionals. What is that number? And also, could you just weigh-in at 45 [with another person wrestling at your school for varsity for 45] and wrestle 52 all the time? Sorry if that's a stupid question. But I was planning on bein' 52 for a little bit and slowly cut down.

The minimum number of weigh-ins I believe is now four. but someone yesterday said it's not weigh ins, but matches, so that would maybe be the last weekend before regionals if that's true. yes, you can weigh in at 45 and wrestle 52, there are many schools that do that just because they don't have someone that may actually weigh in the 52 class naturally.
Minimum i think is 1 weigh in at the class with 4 matches.
i heard from someone that based on that new weight thing there doing that there is no longer a certain number of matches that a wrestler has to wrestle to go that weight in a region. at least thats what we heard
Okay. Thanks for the help. I just didn't want to have 4 matches and then not be able to wrestle my weight in regionals because of a lack of weigh-ins.
I believe the new rule is this.
You must have 4 weigh ins before the regional tourney. It does not matter what wt. If the weight loss program allows you to wrestle a wt. class at regional you are qualified to wrestle it.
This is a huge change from last year. But from what I understand not all the coaches know for certain the rules. :?

I think you are right. I think with changes every year there is so much confusion around the state. I've heard at least 3 or 4 different interpretations.
Just don't forget to get half of your matches at whatever the lower weight is that your planning on going at region.
