OHSAA seems to be waiting on a little more trend data in terms of more schools sponsoring a girls only team before going all in on creating girls wrestling as an official varsity sport.
Right now, the OHSWCA sponsors a girls state tournament for all females wishing to compete.
If the OHSAA was to sponsor girls wrestling as a separate sport, and the regulations were in line with other sports where both genders compete, females would no longer be able to compete/practice against males in season then compete in the female division.

So, if it was sanctioned it would likely be a slow transition, where they could get to their 20 points however. But would eventually split all competitions. Once OHSAA takes it over, however, they could not compete in both post-seasons. However, ALL the other state's models allow practices to be combined or separate, depending on the schools needs and wants. Many states, even Texas which split 15 years ago for "moral reasons", allows teams to practice together. The idea that schools would forced to split like BBB and GGB is probably not going to be a thing.
At Orange, we had 45 boys and 22 girls last year. For workouts, we combined three days a week and split three days a week. Each one gives the girls something different.
The "full practice split" will be up to each building and is an unnecessary concern.
