ummmmmmm NO.  Did you even read my post?

 

Matches at Blackman last night went as expected.  EXCEPT for the fact that EVERYONE was called for stalling......Like literally everyone....

 

I am bemoaning the fact that matches are not called this way by most referees during the season.  (although sometimes at the state tourney)..

 

I like the stalling calls....... IF the kids are used to it.  It keeps things moving and keeps the wrestlers honest. But I'd like to see all of our refs be more consistent across the board and call the matches the same.  Because its not done that way, it's a distraction to the wrestlers and a source of frustration for them because what they are doing all season long is ok until they run into certain refs who call it properly.

Stalling should be called more heavily across the board, not just if the kids are used to it. Up the action.

I agree some refs let a kid obviously stall for a whole match.  Others call it quick. Call the stalling quick make the kids wrestle. Not lay on the ground and stall out. Ive watched matches that took 3-4 times the norm because anytime a kid got caught in a move they go out of the circle. Make them wrestle and wrestle hard.

I agree more stalling needs to be called more quickly when it is actually happening, then you dont get into quick calls at the end of matches that can look inappropriate based on the entire match letting it go without a call.  Also tight waist starts seem to have become the norm as well. 

 

I really wish empasis on agressive but smart offense was the norm, but Im not sure sometimes...

Add the push-out rule from freestyle.  Stops playing the line.

 

Change stalling to one point per call after the warning.  That lets the refs call it without DQ'ing a kid. Wrestling should be actively working to score unless they are overpowered. If they are overpowered, top man is stalling.  Put the focus on scoring points.

 

I know.  It won't happen but those are my two coppers.

    • HVA is a dump and will never be good at football. It's a baseball school. Look at the types of homes being built and families moving in. Not football families. People will move in and look at the school and choose to play for another program. This issue has been snow balling for a decade now
    • Also no shot at an indoor facility it took ya'll almost a decade just to turf blankenship
    • You will not be able to replace Dozier he was a stud and wasted for years. Heyward started strong and then fell of but he will be missed still Rembert could fly and was also underused. Not being replaced. Track has started to close the gap with football. It does not help that the current AD is just stealing money(collecting his check) while the assistant AD is a XC/Track guy who always hated football. Current AD is too worried about not hurting anyone's feelings to do anything at all. Heck he is gotta be 70 plus and looks like a fool wearing kid shoes
    • Will Trez remain 2A after the influx of another 2A school?  
    • As I said somewhere earlier in the thread, the original plans had no outdoor athletic facilities being part of the campus.  The original plan was for HVA to use facilities at nearby schools.  Very late in the process they came up with a plan and found budget to have minimal facilities and crammed them in to space that never was intended for athletic facilities.
