What MatCut does

Every high school wrestler in America is bound to a state weight-management plan: a hydration-tested alpha weight, a lowest certified weight class, and a descent schedule capped at 1.5 percent of body weight per week. The coach's software generates that plan — as a printout. Then the season actually happens with a bathroom scale, a crumpled sheet in a gym bag, and five texts a day to a parent who has no idea whether Friday's weigh-in is on track. MatCut is the wrestler's side of the plan. Enter the certified numbers from the printout once — alpha weight, weight class, weekly minimums, and the plus-one and plus-two pound growth allowance dates — and the whole season becomes one clear chart. From there it's a logbook that fits how wrestlers actually weigh in: morning, before practice, after practice, at night, and official at the meet. Each entry lands on the descent curve next to the plan line, so on pace or behind is a glance, not a guess. Paired practice entries automatically show how much a practice took — the number parents most want visible and almost nobody writes down. Before every meet, the countdown shows the target class, the hours to the scale, and exactly where the latest weigh-in stands — including whether the growth allowance is in effect that date. MatCut never tells an athlete what to eat, what to drink, or what to skip. There are no diet plans and no cutting advice of any kind. It is a logbook and a pace check for a plan a coach and athletic trainer already certified — and a week that drops faster than the 1.5 percent limit gets a red flag worded the way the handbook words it, so the next conversation happens with the coach instead of in silence. Parents get the same view without the texting: add each kid, see today's entries and the curve, and hand the coach a clean one-page weekly summary.
