What are everybody thoughts on the officiating this weekend?
I usually sum it up as this. If they didn't change the outcome of any matches then they did a good job.
I saw 1-2 that they almost did, but the wrestler persevered.
I saw 1-2 coaching staffs complain 7-8 times a match every match, and were wrong 90% of the time.
My only complaint is over half the Officials don't know how to count backpoints off a takedown and especially off a reversal.
Several matches a kid would hit a reversal straight to the back. The official puts up 2 points Green, does the double arm circle to show reversal, then starts swiping. By then his first swipe technically is supposed to be the 3rd swipe.
Hand Signal 2 Reversal Green (swipe 1)
Double arm circle to show reversal (swipe 2)
Backpoint swipe (Swipe 3)
Nope several Officials allowed a kid to be on his back for 1.5 to 2 seconds with ZERO SWIPES.
