I was able to move my weight down if needed and was an ok wrestler so I went over my weight as well. In two weeks I wrestled matches at 103, 112, 119, 125. (112 was my slot) Didn't win them all, but did finish them all.
When we screwed up we had to face the dirty dozen. That is, you had to wrestle all 12 varsity guys in one practice session, regardless of weightclass. When I got busted for going to McDonald's before a match (after weighins) I got thrown off the team because I offered to wrestle any 12 guys under 150 lbs, but I refused to face the varsity heavyweights. Just stupid. They dropped the policy after the guy who got caught with me cracked a rib. They said I could come back, but eff em. Just seemed pointless after that.
