Re: UWW Cadet Trials

JW International wrestling is an entire different way of scoring in both Greco and Free. The Table judge is the head judge and has the last say. Glad to see some of WV wrestlers wrestling in Greco! Fully aware of differences, watched a lot of both in my life, just very odd match from scoring, calls...

Re: UWW Cadet Trials

Braxton's loss in 2nd round may go down as one of the most horrible and confusing officiated matches in National competition. 1 judge from the table changed the score numerous times. The referee would just agree with a complete blank stare. If you have a Flo account, and can make sense of this match...

You don't have a seeding meeting if you do the pill system. And to my understanding that's what they were doing. You seed the 4 region champs. If the region champs have not wrestled all year or have common opponents then it can get complicated seeding. Some kids wrestle up all year and drop down fo...
