Wrestling?!?!?

I heard thrown headgear but either way it's a hard way to lose, this was Marist year. I also heard their 113 didn't make weight and they didn't have a backup ready so that was forfeited so MC got 6 and 113 is not one of their stud wrestlers. Had MC lost the 190 match was a heartbreaker. MC wrestler was in total command and the Marist wrestler threw him for a pin with 8 seconds left.

How does a school like Marist not have a backup kid who can make 113? Granted they may still get pinned, but there's always a chance you can get lucky or maybe give up less than 6 team points.

I said the same thing. That's on the Coach. 113 is not one of MC's strong weights. JV guy probably would have lost but I don't think he would have been pinned

I was told that if you subtract the thrown headgear incident, that they look at most matched won

With that criteria, MC still advances

I was told from a Marist alumni that this falls on the coach

Better to lose on that criteria though than a thrown headgear. That's terrible

Agreed

Correct. Matches won is next, then most pins. Them having to forfeit 113 is really went wrong and not having a reserve wrestler ready is on the Coach, especially if you know the kid is going to be close. Never forfeit in a a state dual meet.
