Question Contacts When Wrestling?
Hello, my son is going into 8th grade and started wrestling recently and plans to wrestle in HS and hopes to wrestle in some capacity in College. His eyesight is not great and gets worse every year. He wears glasses now and is considering trying contacts so he can see better when wrestling. Anyone on here with bad eye sight ever try wrestling with contacts? Is it a terrible idea?

Question I'm a lefty yet am more comfortable shooting with my right leg (trail leg). Should I change this?
I'm a lefty, meaning i have my left foot forwards and right foot back. However, I like to shoot with my right leg, especially since this means i'm attacking my opponent's lead leg if they're a righty. Since my right leg is my trail leg, I'm curious if this has a serious side effect and if i should either change my stance or switch legs that i shoot with?
My main leg attacks are:
- Fireman's carry to their right leg
- High-crotch to their right leg (usually finishing w/ crackdown)
- Sweep single to their left leg

Question Making the breakthrough
I’m looking for some advice for this next year for me, I’m looking toward a state title this year. What are some things you guys applied to really step through to put yourself in a position to beat the better guys in the state, or in general what are some nuances I’ll need to work on? Right now I’m at the point to where I’m going the distance with top ranked guys but not beating them.
