As info, I officiated for 11 yrs & coached for 18 yrs. I paid my dues and know the sport and the rules. Awarding points, then taking them away in many matches, just shouldn’t happen. In several instances, it was cut & dry. Waving & indicating near fall & that back exposure was evident several times, awarding the points, then taking them away just because the opposing coach argued the call is inexcusable. 
Hitting a kid with a stalling point with 1-2 seconds to go in the match to tie the score or to cause that kid a loss is inexcusable. The crowd in attendance knows which matches these were, because the crowd made it known with negative reactions. This just shouldn’t happen. These are kids who are working hard to do their best, and those are adults/officials that are using their “authority” to change outcomes.

Well you are clearly talking about Garrett vs Cathedral for 3rd at 106. Bottom line is Henry was counting near fall on our kid when his back was not past 90 degrees as they were in a scramble situation . Our head coach questioned this and asked for the second refs opinion and he determined there was no near fall. This is nothing uncommon as we had this happen to us at 113 the previous round vs Goshen. The match was a nail biter  and we were happy to come out with a win in double OT. I can guarantee you Coach Seltzer would have questioned the call if the situation was reversed. Both kids wrestled their butts off and it was a great match.  
 

The issue I have is the post match as you were on the floor yelling obscenities at me and Kraus right in front of our kid. 
 

Cathedral is a great program with great coaches and I have nothing but respect for what they have accomplished. It’s sad to see a parent act like that and tarnish a great tournament like the Al Smith.

We are back Monday at 6 with Indiana Tech Coach and Jimtown Legend Collin Crume! Don’t miss out on what should be a night of great technique and live battles. We have been averaging 40+ on Monday’s and Wednesday’s so it should be a good group!

We are back this week Monday and Wednesday 6-7:30! Those will be our normal days going forward. The last two weeks have been really good rooms with around 40 kids from several schools learning some great technique and having good scraps of live wrestling!

Michigan does it for the state tournament.  I like that if you can't fill one weight but have 2 stud seniors stuck together you can get them both in the tournament.  There were 2 state finals matches between teammates this year I believe.  Some kid who may have not had a chance to compete came home a state-runner up.  Can't argue the kids deserved it if that's where they placed.

I know my HS team has double entered weights (2 189s) as our freshman 103 was hurt and saved for the Team State series. I think the reason Michigan can do this is they do not score any of the individual tournaments in the state series as they have Team Districts/Regionals/State to determine the champions.

Ages/Grade level??

6-12

We will be starting our club/RTC this Monday! Last year we had great numbers from a variety of area schools. Don’t miss out on what has been a great room where everybody is improving! Must have USA card. You may even see the famous Poppe shuffle! 

Fielden Garrett pins Lone Northwood. 

Fielden 2-0 decision over Minnick Eastside. 

Great article. That’s a kid I’m rooting for.

Anything involving the Gen HeavyHandz/Major Ursula/Commander Wayne.

They call it States in Michigan instead of State.  This throws him out of the running by default.

In fairness we Michiganders add an S to everything. Meijers Krogers States etc 

We are back at it tomorrow 6-7:30! There will be plenty of technique and live as we prepare for competition next weekend!

Garrett will be running into July.

WE are back tomorrow at 6 with special guest clinician Nathan DeVeaux of Homestead showing some great technique! We have had over 40 the last few weeks!
