First off the new weights are idiotic but its not the 106 lbers getting screwed its guys in the middle. They did away with the most populated weight class in the country which makes no sense at all. As far as 106, while it may not be beneficial to everyone it has made more teams be able to field the lightest weight. If you are that small you are definitley in the minority and not the majority. Other weights wrestle people much bigger than themselves. Also even if you are a small 106 more than likely you are wrestling another freshman or even an 8th grader in some instances so you arent at a huge disadvantage. The few 106 lbers sthat are upper classman are usually not as physically developed as other upper classmen and thus the reason they are at 106 . So in essence, its much easier for a freshman to wrestle 106 at 95 lbs than it is for a freshman to wrestle 135 or up against a senior.
