Outstanding Wrestler: John Purdy I think you are pretty close here but I don't think Alfano advances to semi state at 160 let alone make the final. All 4 from Central at 160 to the Ford Center. At 182 I think you'll see Johnson or Schapker in the final. Cricket21 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point there... between the two, I think Schapker had a surprising weekend winning sectionals, and I don't think Johnson wrestled well last weekend on top of it. Johnson may take Alfano's spot now that I think about it. Also, #BringBackTheTights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWINfan Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Looks like Clay Martin lost in the semifinals by Injury Default. Hope its nothing serious. Landon Horning lost in the semifinals to Brendan Elpers by fall? TW shows horning was up 11-2 and lists the fall at 6:00. Was it truly a last second comeback? A reversal to a fall perhaps? At first glance, don't see any other big upsets. Is Vanover over Keegan Williams a mild upset? Not sure on that one.

For those MD fans that remember Chris Wildeman v Richie Diggs state finals match, it was not the famous “Richie Diggs” move. Great win for Elpers. Wouldn’t call it much of an upset for Williams/Vanover, they have had close matches most of the time. See you next week, Mr Vanover! #BringBackTheTights SWINfan, Jayruss, Ahawkeye and 1 other 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a very quick pin. 99% of time this wouldn't have been ruled a pin as there was no 2 second count. Very awkward moment Cricket21 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then there was no whistle for yet a few more seconds as both wrestlers and corners had no idea what was going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will admit it was awkward as no one appeared to really know what happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t see this particular call and am not clear on the rule. So I’m not trying to be argumentative. Honest question - do there HAVE to be swipes? Can a ref not count off two seconds in their head as they are trying to get down on the mat in position and call the fall if they feel two seconds were achieved? Seems if we wait for a ref to get down and start swiping some of the older, slower refs may never call a fall in certain instances when one was deserved.

No excuses here. This ref just called a few matches as he was doing freestyle. Just touch mat and then blow whistle. In this particular match, it went on for a few seconds before it was stopped which is what made it so confusing for wrestlers and corner.

It was difficult to tell what that particular ref was calling all day. His whistle was barely audible, and his hand motions when awarding points, calling falls, etc were very passive and easily missed. 1prouddad 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
