Even if they let the girl wrestle guys a couple weight classes down from her, I don’t think that would be a big concern.

In 7th-8th grade, you might be surprised. I wrestled for 13 years and saw a couple girls that won their fair share of matches. I never had to wrestle one myself, but I knew a couple that we'd run into at open tournaments throughout the year.

That said, I don't remember hearing about either of those girls continuing on in high school.

Ok, sure, prepubescence, I can see them being competitive. In high school, I really doubt it.

Boys and their development shouldn’t be exploited for those couple years when the females can be equal to them, before everyone’s hormones develop, that always struck me as victimizing the boys in a weird psychological way, something that they wouldn’t exploit during a short window with the female sex.
