High School to College Shot and Discus conversion?

Is there a formula or calculator to convert or compare high school shot and discus throws to the college weights?

I am not sure about the disc. I have heard varying numbers.

In the shot, Women use the same weight so no conversion. For the Men, you should figure about 8 feet less in college with the 16lbs. shot.

10 foot is the difference I've seen mostoften when good HSers throw both in their senior year.

My experience is 8 feet.
