No biggie.....it was interesting to me to see how the numbers actually shook out after all the discussion/controversy.......

Don't know how they came up with the differing number of schools/teams??

It looks all jumbled to me.

It could just be that I'm looking at it on an iPhone. Because that what I have, you know? An iPhone? Yeah... It's sweet.

Basically it makes it clear that the addition of an upper weight class was a huge mistake. The top 3 weights had the fewest entries, whereas the middle weights had the highest by a large number.

Ridiculous....Less than 5% at all 3 weights

If this proposed walk-out by Solon's coach involves wearing a crazy silky boxing robe and/or crazy socks and tie dyed hair...I am in.

106 has more than 285 220 and 195 does this mean everyone will now bash those weights instead? :p

From the logic people bring that seems right. Why not make 14 weight classes between 130 and 145 ;)
