Wrestling eyes another change to weight classes
No stranger to change, a new set of weight classes is being considered for boys wrestling, upping the total from 13 to 14 starting this upcoming winter. If approved, this would mark NYSPHSAA's third significant change in five years. The state dropped from 15 to 13 weight classes in 2020-21, then adjusted those 13 weight classes in 2023-24.
