1. College takedown are call quicker.  As soon as they touch the mat at all. Establishing control doesn't have to be and obvious as HS  and there is no reaction time considered unlike we usually see in HS.

 

2. Yes the HS refs tend to let the wrestlers work on positions longer before calling a stalemate or a stalling.  And a little more backwards movement if defending a takedown before a fleeing is called.  College refs will call a reset as soon as the action stops for more than a brief second.  Call a stalling as soon as the top wrestler is just holding on or bottom is not moving for more than a second.  Plus call a fleeing as soon as you make more than one small movement backward close to out of bounds. 

1. It seems the opposite, as if the refs at the HS state tournament are calling takedowns before control is established. Particularly in leg scramble situations. Is there a neutral danger rule at the high school level? 
 

2. I am definitely noticing that. I just watched a match that if applying college stalling rules the kid would have stalled out to a DQ, yet somehow ended up winning in the end. Crazy match.

Have a feeling Kyrel Leavell wins his second title today.

I was correct.
