  1. The below-listed actions seem to be the ones that get U.S. wrestlers in trouble with the officials. I also think all of these actions stem from how folk style is officiated, rewarding these types of actions instead of how UWW rules reward control of center and maintaining contact with your opponent: Attacking without any direct contact with the opponent Regaining initial position right after beginning an attack Fake attacks (Simulation)
  2. Per the United World Wrestling International Wrestling Rules: If after 2:00 minutes into the first period neither wrestler has scored any point (score 0-0), the referees must mandatory designate one of the wrestlers as inactive (the same procedure described above is administered). c. When there is less than 30 seconds remaining in either period, if all three of the refereeing body agree a wrestler is evading and/or blocking his opponent, then his/her opponent is awarded one point and caution (i.e fleeing the hold). This situation can be challenged. d. e. If a wrestler initiates his action some seconds before minute 2:00 with a 0:0 score, the referee will not interrupt the bout and will allow the wrestler to finish the action. If the action ends with points, the bout will continue without any interruption. If the action doesn’t end with points, the referee will stop the bout and will apply the activity time. For U15, U17 and Veterans age categories, no verbal warning will be given. The passivity procedure starts directly with activity time.
  3. And per the United World Wrestling International Wrestling Rules it is officially referred to as "Activity Time" or "30 second activity period." Interestingly, the word "clock" is used nowhere in the rules, but I still refer to the action as "being put on the Activity clock."
  4. Considering team USA only scored four team points between 57,70 and 125kg., their second place finish was quite impressive, especially having three wrestlers 21 or under competing.
  5. And considering we only received four team points combined between 57, 70 and 125kg., that was a great finish for the U.S.

  7. Cold spray fixes everything!
  8. I think he was concussed.
  9. Thanks. I'm not sure why I figured Forrest would bypass U23.
  10. Since Marcus Blaze was second in line behind Forrest for the 61 kg. U23 slot is Marcus allowed to claim the spot now, thus allowing Cornella the opportunity to take the 65 kg. slot that Marcus claimed before Forrest made the World Team?
  11. Marcus was recently quoted as saying he walks around at 63 kg. Since he will be at 65 kg for U23 he will definitely be giving up some size for those who have to cut to make 65 kg. He will be at 61 kg for U20.
  12. I haven't heard this interview, but I would think it highly more likely that a Christian chanting "walk on water" would be referring to Peter and not Jesus. When Peter kept his eyes on Jesus he was able to walk on the water. When he started looking at the waves and wind he lost his faith and began to sink. In that context I would think "walk on water" is shorthand for keeping your eyes on Jesus and not fearing the "wind and waves" of your current trial. See Matthew 14:22-33
  13. JJ was definitely undersized and behind in the strength category this tournament, which is to be expected since he is our 70 kg U17 rep this year. He had a great tournament, especially wrestling up a weight and up an age group.
  14. Had Kerkvliet not been injured before the tournament you would have essentially been correct as he probably would have ended up third, if not second, instead of MFF'ing to 6th.
  15. The last time the Yankees won a World Series was 2009, which coincidentally was when Cael joined Penn State. Since 2009 Penn State has won twelve titles under Cael, so we're gonna' have to choose another Dynasty for comparison : )
