  8. Smyrna's coach should be ashamed

    in Wrestling Mat

    Posted · Edited by BoroRef

    Oh how we miss the day's of Tim Garrett (Overton) being injured with an illegal move against defending state champion John Crowley (Father Ryan) in the 1978 region finals.  Overton coach Ronnie Carter had official Joe Wiggins start and stop the match so that Crowley could win.  Pure class by both Tim Garrett and Ronnie Carter.

    Do we not create a ethical dilemma by rewarding a "superior" wrestler with a victory after injuring an opponent with an illegal move causing the "inferior" wrestler to not be able to continue competing? The rules allow for the injured wrestler the victory due to an ILLEGAL hold. I agree with Coach Kramer and his opinion. The Smyrna coach owes no one a apology. He, I am certain, did what he felt was best for his wrestler and made the decision to not continue wrestling. Russo responded in order and continued to wrestle for 3rd and completed the tournament in a honorable fashion. Kudos to him for not going down the wrong path as some others on this thread obviously would have. The move contrary to some opinions was an illegal slam. The correct call was made IMO.Had the rule not been broken the dilemma does not exist. Normally an injury resulting from an otherwise legal move does not penalize the non-injured wrestler by rule. Would have restarting the match in order to allow the offending wrestler a chance to move forward in the tournament despite injuring and therefore denying the injured wrestler the opportunity to move forward been a class move? No IMO, rewarding that becomes a slippery slope and denies the intent of the rule to be fulfilled.

    rumor has it that last years top 3 in AAA will all be there (ravenwood, cleveland, wilson county)

    Ravenwood and Wilson Central are there but not Cleveland. Beech and Franklin will be there as well. Total of 20 teams for the 2 day dual tournament.
