US Open, DonFather Duals, Dave Schultz and Tricia Saunders Award Winners plus the new high school rules ... lots to talk about this week on SE and Scrappy.
I think the reason they don't give 3 for reversals is because in most scenarios you have to give up control to be in a position to score it. I also think they aren't incentivizing bottom wrestling because they are trying to move Folkstyle as close to Freestyle as they can without getting rid of it all together.
That might be true ... I'd love to talk with someone at the NCAA about the changes. The NFHS is obviously just following the NCAA's lead on this. I wonder if the NCAA (or the rules committee) is trying to make it closer to freestyle or not.
