106, 113, 120, 126, 132, 138, 145, 152, 160, 170, 182, 195, 220, 285.... those are the weight classes.

If he weights 228 lbs, he is a Heavyweight. He should be able to cut down to 220 with a little bit of work. After Christmas, wrestlers get a growth allowance and each day of consecutive competition gets a pound for each day.

A lot of people say the same thing, once they see a big tournament with good wrestling, they are hooked.

We're actually trying to add some weight to him. He plays offensive line, more than likely Center this coming season, and I'm trying to thicken him up. But I see what your saying about dropping a few pounds and moving down a weight class though. He's just a 15 year old Freshman and getting slung around by these bigger and better kids now will help him out down the line, I think anyway. Thanks for the advice and the weight classes though.
