Sad, but necessary.
That's the best way to describe what the PIAA's Wrestling Steering Committee has recommended to the Board of Directors about weight classes.
The committee voted 13-1 in April for the board to submit a 12-weight class proposal to the National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) for use in the 2020-21 season and -- here's the really radical part -- to use 12 classes in PIAA competition even if the NFHS doesn't act.
